LHP Clayton Richard had one of his best starts of the season in throwing a rain-shortened complete game against Cleveland on Tuesday night. Richard went six innings, allowing just four runs on four hits, and took a page from the Mark Buehrle book of pitching. "To me that was the best he's thrown the ball all year long," manager Ozzie Guillen said of Richard. "From my view, I thought he tried to be like Buehrle a little bit -- get it going, get it going, don't think about your pitch very long. That's going to help him." Richard credited extra work in the bullpen. "I know we've been talking about going deeper into the game, so I figured the best way to do that was to go the whole game," Richard said. "Every start has been somewhat of a work in progress. Things we've been doing in the bullpen sessions have slowly been carrying over to the field." |
