Athletics pitcher Drew Pomeranz kept up his string of scoreless innings Tuesday, blanking the Rays for five innings while giving up three hits and two walks and striking out three in his team's 3-0 win over the Rays.
Pomeranz (4-1) has turned in five scoreless innings in each of his three starts since joining the rotation to drop his ERA under 1.00. He didn't quite have the strikeout numbers of his previous two starts Tuesday, but he now owns a 0.94 ERA and 27:10 K:BB ratio in 28 2/3 innings. He'll try to keep rolling when he faces the Blue Jays Sunday.
