Tough night for Kerry Carpenter, who got his first hit of the year but wore the golden sombrero. He's 1-for-16 with 10 strikeouts to start the season.

Kevin McGonigle saw three fastballs in his first AB last night. He hit a 103.4 mph line out to RF — perhaps why he won't be seeing many fastballs going forward.

Justin Verlander joined Don Sutton as the only pitchers in MLB history to begin their career with at least 380 starts on their original team, followed by at least 175 starts elsewhere, and then return to appear again with their first club.
