Orioles turn to Loewen in back end of doubleheader

Apr 10, 2008 - 12:42 PM Baltimore at Texas 8:05 pm EDT

ARLINGTON, Texas (Ticker) - The Baltimore Orioles will hand the ball to Adam Loewen in the second game of Thursday's doubleheader at Rangers Ballpark.

Loewen (0-0, 7.71 ERA) looks to improve on Saturday's season debut, when he surrendered four runs and four hits over 4 2/3 innings. The Orioles bats bailed out the lefthander, however, as the club claimed a a 6-4 win.

Texas will counter with Kason Gabbard (1-0, 0.00), who is 1-0 with a 2.53 ERA in two career starts against Baltimore.

The lefthander, who celebrated his 26th birthday on Tuesday, will try to build on his first outing in which he tossed seven scoreless frames and struck out four in a 11-6 over the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim.

Gabbard was scheduled to start Wednesday's game, which was postponed due to rain, setting up Thursday's twinbill.
