Lockwood challenges pitching feud after near no hitter
Milwaukee righthander Skip Lockwood flirted with a no hitter against the Texas Rangers before being pulled in the seventh after a leadoff single by Rico Carty. Del Crandall defended the move, noting Lockwood threw many pitches in just his second start of the year as Milwaukee won behind Eduardo Rodriguez. Lockwood, 5-5 this season, vented about criticism of inconsistency. Darrell Porter praised Lockwood’s stuff while questioning consistency.
