Lolich doubts he will win 30 games this season
Lolich, the AL's first 15-game winner, doubts reaching 30 wins, saying only 18 or 19 more starts possible. He noted it is unrealistic for a pitcher to go 15-3 or 15-4 for half a season after beating the Kansas City Royals 6-4 to move to 15-6. Other AL results included the Twins 10-0 over the Red Sox and Rangers 5-0 over the Indians while NL scores featured the Reds 2-0 over Pirates and Astros 7-2 over Cubs.
