(Central News Agency, reporter Su Chih-Yu, Taipei, 10th) Houston Astros Taiwanese pitcher Teng Kai-Wei took the mound today after four days of rest. He allowed 7 runs in the first two innings, tying his personal career high for runs allowed. He settled down to complete 4 innings, but his team ultimately lost 1-10 to the Los Angeles Angels, giving Teng his 5th loss of the season.
Pitching in Major League Baseball (MLB), Teng faced the Angels today. In the first inning, after issuing a walk, he struck out slugger Mike Trout. However, a teammate's error put runners on first and second. A subsequent walk and hit-by-pitch brought in one run. A ground ball that failed to result in a double play allowed another run to score. He ended the inning with a strikeout.
The second inning brought more trouble. After a strikeout, two hits and a hit-by-pitch loaded the bases. Wade Meckler and Jo Adell then hit consecutive doubles, driving in four runs. Nolan Schanuel followed with a single, putting runners on first and third. Another run scored on a groundout.
Facing a 7-0 deficit, Teng settled down in the third inning, allowing only one hit. In the fourth inning, he walked the leadoff batter and allowed a hit with two outs but escaped the first-and-second jam.
In his previous start against the Pittsburgh Pirates, Teng pitched 5 innings, allowing 5 runs (4 earned). After four days of rest, in this game he pitched only 4 innings, allowing 7 hits, 3 walks, 2 hit-by-pitches, and 5 strikeouts, giving up 7 runs (5 earned). His ERA rose to 3.71.
The Astros' offense was shut out until the top of the 7th inning when Brice Matthews drove in a run with a timely hit. However, the Angels added 3 runs in the bottom of the 8th, sealing a lopsided victory. (Editor: Wu Su-Rou) 1150610
