6-9 - Dunning gets it done, bullpen does not in 6-1 loss to Orioles

The Texas Rangers scored one run and the Baltimore Orioles scored six runs.

Dane Dunning made his third start for Texas and was every bit as impressive as he had been in his first two. Given a smidge more of a leash, Dunning tossed six scoreless innings on five hits, zero walks and five Ks on 75 pitches.

Were the Rangers not limiting the pitches and innings of some of their starters — including Dunning — you get the feeling that he could have just kept coasting through this one.

When Dunning exited after his six frames, the Rangers were up 1-0 following a fourth inning David Dahl RBI single.
