the oswalt watch

Roy Oswalt worked 3 1/3 rather shaky innings tonight in minor league tuneup start No. 3 for the Texas Rangers. Pitching for Double-A Frisco, Oswalt, from Weir and Holmes Community College, allowed five hits (three doubles), a walk and three earned runs. He also yielded two stolen bases and threw a wild pitch. His 85-pitch stint included 55 strikes.
