but the following Wednesday he got destroyed(didn't last long at all) on a hot day game in Anaheim.Did so-so the rest of July,but he was torn apart in August,and destroyed in 1st inning against Texas (with 2 weeks to go in season.) They had to have that game against Texas.They had to keep the deficit behind the A's at the same #,or there simply wasn't gunna be any reality of a race existing.Hot day in Dallas,and they ripped him up.He padded his #s the last 2 starts (after the Texas mess.)He is pretty good when the race is decided.
