Dallas Keuchel Rangers Debut Goes Much L

[seestyle]

Dallas Keuchels debut with the Texas Rangers emulated the sort of starts he had with the Chicago White Sox and the Arizona Diamondbacks this season. In other words, he didnt flash his Cy Young form as the Rangers were down six runs when he left the game on Saturday night. Keuchel didnt help the Rangers much, though he did pitch Shane Greene Jersey into the sixth inning, which did preserve the Rangers bullpen just a bit after throwing four innings on Friday night. But when left with one out in the sixth inning, , he had allowed 11 hits and all seven runs to that point. All were earned. I was hoping for five innings, Rangers interim manager Tony Beasley said. In a perfect world he comes out and dominates and goes six or seven. He had a tough time hitting his spots and finishing. He left balls over the plate and they didnt mi s. He competed. He ate some innings for us. I asked him after the fifth if he could give us one more and he said he could. We wanted to get six out of him.He struck out one and walked one in throwing Bob Uecker Jersey 96 pitches. His 11 hits allowed were a season-high. He gave up 10 hits in a start for Chicago on April 20. Saturdays numbers fell in line with what he did in 12 starts with the White Sox and the Diamondbacks earlier this season 2-7 with an 8.53 ERA in 12 starts.

But what put an Luke Jackson Jersey end to his night was the sixth-inning home run to Jeimer Candelario with one on base. That prompted the Rangers to get Dennis Santana out of the bullpen. Keuchel had just one inning where he retired the side in order, which was the fourth. He did show off the glove that made him a five-time Gold Glove winner, handling a chance in the field with a spinning throw to . He also handled a play at first base, covering the bag for Lowe, who was playing deep and dove for a sharp grounder down the line. Texas wasnt expecting the former Cy Young winner. But the Rangers were hoping he would come closer to emulating the form Jared Shuster Jersey he showed in four starts at Triple-A Round Rock, after he signed a minor-league deal last month. After signing with the Rangers, he was a signed to the Expre s, where he went 1-0 with a 2.31 ERA in four starts, while allowing a .163/.264/.250/.514 opponent slash. He walked 11 and struck out 22 and finished with a 1.029 WHIP. He also gave up just one Josh Tomlin Jersey home run. With Keuchel taking the turn of the injured Cole Ragans, its likely he will get at least one more chance in the rotation.
