K for Kazmir

Scott Kazmir is averaging two strikeouts per inning tonight, with eight through four innings. Unfortunately, he's thrown 80 pitches already, which will likely limit how high that total can go. The Jays and Rays are scoreless in the bottom of the fourth.

Update: Kamir strikes out two more in the fifth for ten in the game. He's at 89 pitches, and the trainer and manager were already out to talk to him once this inning. That may be it for Scott.

Update: Maddon is being interviewed right now and he says Kaz is out of the game. He also says B.J. Upton strained his left shoulder, and he'll be day to day.

A.J. Burnett also is working on a two-hitter. He neither walked nor struck out a batter yet.

Update: Of course, as soon as I hit the save button, Burnett walks the leadoff batter in the fifth.
