That is correct. He started the 9th inning vs the Royals earlier this year at 126 pitches and threw his 136th pitch 101 MPH. It wasn't even for a shutout. They ride him hard.

Another great job by Masterson to work out of a jam.

I thought I saw something about that.

As you can probably tell, I'm not a fan of this pitch count bullcrap. :D

At work unfortunately, but just caught an update. Hopefully we can hold on! Great job by Masterson today.

Pestano gets the 1-2-3 in the 8th but his 23 straight appearances with a strikeout streak has ended.

I doubt he cares. He got the job done.

JV just blows through Choo, Kipnis and Cabrera. Strikes out the side in 11 pitches.

Rage in for the 3rd day in a row.

I have to agree with you. A sweep definitely seems possible.

Impressive series sweep.

Sat in my car in the driveway just so I could hear Hamilton call the ninth.
