Fants strike gold again!

James Shields struck out nine Athletics and surrendered just one run in eight innings of work on Friday to pick up the win in a 4-1 Devil Rays' victory.
Shields walked just one and gave up four hits, with the lone run coming on a homer by Bobby Crosby. That James has given up seven homers in five starts is very discouraging, but his 37/7 K/BB ratio is a big plus and he has a fine 3.75 ERA despite all of the homers. He's fine to use against the Twins next time out.
