ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) - Blue Jays rookie Gustavo Chacin pitched eight shutout innings and Reed Johnson was hit by a record-tying three pitches two with the bases loaded in Toronto's 8-0 victory over the Texas Rangers on Saturday night.
Chacin (3-0) allowed two hits, walked two and hit a batter in his fifth major league start to help the Blue Jays win for the sixth time in eight games.
Johnson was hit by a pitch in the third, sixth and eighth innings, with the last two driving in runs. He set a franchise record and tied the major league mark, last set by current teammate Corey Koskie on July 27, 2004, while he was with the Minnesota Twins.
