Miguel Gonzalez allowed three runs (two earned) in 5 2/3 innings and got the no-decision as the Orioles fell to the Blue Jays on Tuesday. |
Gonzalez made one big mistake, giving up a three-run home run to Edwin Encarnacion in the bottom of the sixth. Otherwise, he was effective, giving up four hits and two walks while striking out seven. He now has a 5.40 ERA and has allowed five home runs in 20 innings thus far. Gonzalez will face the Royals in his next start. |

Wed Apr 16 2014 | 16:02 | Miguel Gonzalez registers first win |
Miguel Gonzalez picked up his first win of the season Wednesday, tossing five scoreless innings in a 3-0 victory over the Rays. |
Gonzalez whiffed six batters while allowing just three hits and three walks. He did need 98 pitches to get through five, which he was removed from relatively early. Still, Gonzalez has now been solid for two outings in a row after being blasted in his first start of the season. He'll try to keep the momentum going next week in Toronto. |

Wed Apr 9 2014 | 23:51 | Miguel Gonzalez allows three runs to Yanks |
Miguel Gonzalez shook off two homers to hold the Yankees to three runs in six innings on Wednesday. |
The homers came in the second inning. Carlos Beltran hit one way out, and Kelly Johnson followed with another three batters later, though that one probably wouldn't have left any park apart from Yankee Stadium. It was a bounce-back outing for Gonzalez after he was hit hard by the Tigers last week. He's still a good bet to be a useful AL-only pitcher. |
