From Rotoworld: Romano coughed up five runs in six innings and was charged with a loss to the Padres on Tuesday. He gave up runs on a groundout, a wild pitch and two sacrifice flies before Austin Hedges smacked a solo homer in the sixth inning. Romano surrendered nine hits and two walks and recorded just two strikeouts in the sub-par effort. The big rookie falls to 2-4 with a 5.35 ERA in seven starts.
Garza was destroyed in Tuesday’s loss to the Twins, allowing eight runs on eight hits over just 3 1/3 innings. The veteran right-hander also issued two walks while striking out three. His problem in this one was keeping the ball in the yard. Max Kepler tagged him for a two-run shot in the third inning, then Kepler and Eddie Rosario clubbed solo homers in the fourth inning and Brian Dozier added a grand slam. Garza will bring a 4.34 ERA and 1.31 WHIP into Sunday’s start against the Reds.
