Y'know, I like Colby and all that, but he really has a pretty mediocre career record. A won-lost record of 48-48 going into tonight's game and a lifetime .484 ERA.

I'm not a stats guy, but everybody keeps bringing up that he still hasn't had a quality start this season.

Rangers’ power surge helps hold off A’s
By Jeff Wilson
jwilson@star-telegram.com
OAKLAND, Calif. — Colby Lewis urged the media who assembled around him late Monday night to speak to Donnie Murphy or Michael Choice or Robinson Chirinos or Adrian Beltre, the Texas Rangers who did the heavy lifting at O.co Coliseum.
Lewis was right, though his performance did merit some discussion. So did the brief appearance from Robbie Ross.
The relentless Oakland A’s lineup had something to do with the pitching issues Lewis and Ross faced. The inconsistent Rangers offense ultimately helped cover up the mound blemishes in a 14-8 victory to open a three-game series.
Murphy hit two homers as the Rangers went deep a season-high four times, and he was one of three players to drive in three runs. The Rangers matched their season-high for runs, also done May 4 at Anaheim.
That, as Lewis said, deserved the bulk of the conversation.
“It was very nice, and we needed every run we put on the board,” manager Ron Washington said. “They kept fighting back, but we didn’t stop playing. The bottom line is we won the game.”
Chirinos and Choice were part of the Rangers’ biggest power display this season. Beltre and Chirinos drove in three runs apiece. Chirinos and Rougned Odor each collected three hits.
“It was nice that we all came out and contributed tonight,” Murphy said. “It was a nice team win.”

A’s continue winning ways vs. Yu Darvish
By Jeff Wilson
jwilson@star-telegram.com
OAKLAND, Calif. — Yu Darvish gets it.
The Texas Rangers’ ace knows all about how the Oakland A’s beat him, time and time again.
The loss total reached eight Tuesday night as he surrendered seven runs, though only four earned, in five innings of a 10-6 loss at O.co Coliseum.
Darvish, though, suggested that any team would have beaten him Tuesday.
The A’s did what they were supposed to do, jumping on a pitcher who couldn’t put the ball where he wanted it but more often than not where A’s players like it.
“I didn’t have command of any of my pitches,” Darvish said. “It’s not how they approach me. I just didn’t have all of my stuff today.”
