ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) - Kevin Millwood pitched seven scoreless
innings for his 10th victory and the Texas Rangers beat the
Baltimore Orioles 3-0.
Millwood, who was 0-2 in his previous four September starts, is
now 10-and-13. He's won all five of his starts against the Orioles
and has a 1.70 ERA against Birds in his two seasons for Texas.
Rangers shortstop Michael Young went 1-for-4, giving him 195
hits. He has six games to reach 200 hits for the fifth straight
season. The only other players to do that since 1940 were Wade
Boggs and Ichiro Suzuki, who both did it seven straight years,
including this season for Suzuki.
Jon Leicester threw his first complete game in his fifth major
league start. He falls to 2-and-3.
Kevin Millar (mih-LAHR') went 3-for-4 in Baltimore's final road
game of the season after going 5-for-31 the previous nine games on
the trip.
