AL hot corner

August 01, 2000

Quote: "Tonight we just stunk, starting with me making some bad pitches. Then it got contagious." - Toronto pitcher David Wells after suffering his first road loss of the season last night in Oakland.

It's a fact: Anaheim's Darrin Erstad needs 23 RBIs in the Angels final 55 games to become the batter in major league history to drive in 100 runs from the leadoff spot.

Who's hot: Oakland's Tim Hudson (12-3) has won 11 of his last 12 decisions after last night's win against Toronto.

Who's not: Texas pitcher Darren Oliver allowed seven runs and eight hits in two innings in an 8-7 loss to Detroit on Sunday night.

On deck: The resurgent Dwight Gooden looks to continue his comeback tonight as the New York Yankees play host to the Kansas City Royals.
