Game #1
Texas (T.Hunter)
Hunter continues to be a bulldog for the Rangers' rotation, going seven innings in a winning effort against Toronto on Wednesday. He allowed four runs on six hits to pick up his seventh win of the season.
Cleveland (C. Carrasco)
Carrasco turned in a dud of a Major League debut against the Tigers on Tuesday, coughing up six runs on nine hits with three walks, three strikeouts and three homers in three innings. The 22-year-old fell victim to the temptation to overthrow in his first Major League start, and it came back to bite him, as he couldn't command his fastball.
