Kuo Roughed Up....

MLB:
Kuo's third start of the season against the Blue Jays wasn't pretty. Kuo didn't survive the second inning, in which the Blue Jays batted around on him. The "Big Hurt" started the inning with a double and ended the inning with a huge grand slam against Kuo. After a 1-2-3 first inning, Kuo allowed 8 runs on 6 hits in the 2nd inning alone. Two walks allowed by Kuo in the inning didn't help either as both runners would end up scoring. Box/Recap
Hopefully Kuo can shake this one off and give another quality start the next time out.

Wang's next start in SF is expected to be well received by the Taiwanese diaspora in the area.
