And the total is now up to eighteen thanks to three CGs on May 25 and the second appearance on the list by Felix Hernandez on 5/27:--Drew Hutchinson of the Blue Jays four-hit the Chicago White Sox in a 6-0 Toronto win, striking out eight and walking no one.
--Jesse Hahn of the A's four-hit the Detroit Tigers in a 4-0 Oakland win, striking out five and walking one.--Dallas Keuchel of the Astros added another CG loss to the 2015 ledgers as he threw an eight-inning CG while losing to the Orioles, 4-3.
--Felix Hernandez, locked in a pitching duel this evening with the Rays' Chris Archer, caught a break when the Tampa Bay relievers coughed up three runs in the top of the ninth, allowing Hernandez to coast in with a four-hit shutout in a 3-0 Mariners victory. Archer struck out more men (12 in 8 IP as opposed to Felix' eight) and gave up less hits (just two to Felix' four) but, as is sometimes the case--sometimes?? maybe we should try to measure that, eh??--he has nothing to show for it aside from some Wins Above Replacement trading stamps.
