A Game That Was Just Waco

Dallas Keuchel faced off against Austin Pruitt last night in an AL tilt between Tampa and the hometown Astros.

It was the sixth time in baseball history that the two starting pitchers' names represented cities in the state in which the game was played.

Three of those games involved pitchers named Dennis (Martinez, Leonard and Eckersley) squaring off in Boston. 

The Rays blanked Houston, handing Keuchel his first loss of the season. Score one for the state capital. 

Keep Austin Weird! And pitching well.
