Jon Lester went three innings in today's loss. He allowed four hits, one run, and struck out two. But hey! He only walked one batter today. Okajima, Delcarmen, and Jon Switzer all had nice outings. Hansack pitched two innings; he gave up a hit, a run, walked one, and struck out two. Lopez struggled mightily and was charged with the loss as a result. He went one inning and gave up four hits and five runs (none of them earned). He walked one batter and hit another with a pitch.
Offensively, the big story was Kevin Cash. Who knew the man could hit? Perhaps he shouldn't have been excused from the catchers who hit home runs against the Twins race. He had a double that knocked in two runs. Almost all of the other seventeen hits were singles (with Keith Ginter, Joe Thurston, Manny Ramirez, and Alex Cora each hitting two), although Keith Ginter and Jonathan Van Every both hit doubles.
