Garza (3-0, 0.75 ERA) is 6-3 with a 1.70 ERA versus the Blue Jays. He's 3-0 with a 1.27 ERA in his last four starts against them.
The right-hander has been the AL's top pitcher on the young season, giving up two earned runs in 24 innings. He allowed four hits in eight scoreless innings of a 7-1 win at Boston on Sunday.

I no longer get worried when Wells is stepping up to the plate.

Last season I basically called it an automatic out...

Garza had given up 2 ER in 24 IP coming into this game...4 ER in 0.2 IP tonight. I believe that makes us 72 times better than the average AL offense, which sounds about right.

If they have a dead-center camera, why the **** are they using the horrible offset angle? I hate the love of the distorted viewpoint...judging pitches is guesswork.

What does Cecil have? Low mid 90's fastball, and a slider?

Travis Snider has got to be the unluckiest hitter by far in the major leagues, line drives are supposed to have about a .700 chance of dropping for a base hit and i've seen atleast 6-7 linedrives hit right at fielders instead of dropping in.

Cecil continues to look good. :) Hopefully his stamina keeps up this season. He's great when he isn't exhausted from not being prepped for 6+ IP.

Love the control Cecil's showing with just one walk but he's gotta keep the ball down , he's given up too many flyballs for a groundball pitcher

Can't watch the game, but I'm loving the box score in that we smacked around Garza.
