Tune to ESPN tonight at 8:05 pm ET as Chris Young takes the mound in Los Angeles for the San Diego Padres. In this evening's game versus the Dodgers Young will be attempting to become the first pitcher to make 26 road starts in a row without a loss.
"Had I lost one of those starts between now and then, we wouldn't be talking about it," Young said. "I really attribute a lot of it to luck. I've had a lot of games where I pitched poorly and came [out] with a no-decision or even a win."
In Texas, Will Venable went 2-3 in a 10-3 Missions victory to raise his average to .360 on the season.
