Murray Wins
A.J. Murray made his first start of 2008 for the Texas Rangers Saturday night and pitched 5 1/3 innings for the win. As a minor league pitcher he showed a good but not great strikeout rate, a better walk rate and a great home run rate. In his cup of coffee in 2007, he allowed lots of walks and lots of home runs, however. In his start against the Athletics, the twenty six year old kept the ball in the park and only walked two. The Rangers, who need positive signs right now, should take that as one. They've won four in a row, and in their last three games have only allowed seven runs.
