The right-hander allowed singles in the second, third and fifth innings to Allen Craig, Mookie Betts and Rusney Castillo, respectively. He also struck out four on 55 pitches before being lifted with two outs in the fifth. ''I want to go as http://www.footballgiantsprostore.com/Stevie-Brown-Jerseydeep as I can each and every game (and) put the boys in position to win,'' Stroman said. ''I'm looking to go nine a lot this year, and anything I can to keep that efficiency up and to keep my pitch count low, I'm going to do.'' Stroman, who is expected to fill the void atop Toronto's rotation following the offseason departure of ace David Price, previously struck out four in his second start against Houston on Sunday. He missed nearly six months last season recovering from a torn anterior cruciate http://www.footballgiantsprostore.com/Trindon-Holliday-Jerseyligament in his left knee before returning for four starts in late September, going 4-0 with a 1.67 ERA.

''Honestly, it was the biggest blessing in disguise I've ever had,'' he said. ''I feel great. I can't put into words how strong I feel - my emotion, my pitches - and I'm just excited to get to opening day.'' Boston prospect Sam Travis homered to center field with http://www.saintsshopnfl.com/Authentic-Josh-Hill-Jerseytwo outs in the ninth.
