"I thought they put together some better at-bats," said Owens, who went 7 1/3 innings on the night. "So I'm not going to take anything away from that club. They've got a good offensive lineup, and I feel like we still had them off balance in a couple of innings, made some pitches to get out of situations, but with two strikes I was a little overzealous at times, left a couple of pitches out in the zone."
The trouble began in the top of the fifth when Logan Forsythe took the first pitch of his at-bat off the center-field wall for a double.
