Earning 1/2 WOBs in losing efforts.

Julio Teheran struck out 8 Red Sox in 7 innings of work, allowing 1 run on a solo homer. But that was enough for him to take a hard luck 1-0 loss in Atlanta.

Michael Saunders collected 3 hits, including a homer, but the Blue Jays fell short to the White Sox, 7-5.

Jeremy Hazelbaker came off the bench to homer and triple for the Cardinals in a 12-7 defeat in Arizona.
