major league win in his first MLB start July 6, 2012 at Los Angeles (AL)…Missed 2008 with a

torn meniscus and 2009 after “Tommy John” surgery…Attended Mission (CA) CC…Had his first

child, Leah, on June 18, 2013.

CAREER VS. BOSTON: Making his sixth career start (eighth appearance) against the Red

Sox…Is 4-0 with a 2.18 ERA (33.0IP, 8ER) and five Quality Starts in five career starts against

Boston…Is 2-0 with a 3.65 ERA (12.1IP, 5ER) in two career starts against the Red Sox at

OPACY.

AGAINST THE EAST: In his 35 career starts against the AL East, Gonzalez is 15-8 with a 3.39

ERA (212.1IP, 80ER) and 23 Quality Starts…He beat each team in the East as a rookie in 2012

innings in 25 of his 35 career starts against the East…In 10 starts against the division this season,

he is 4-1 with a 2.82 ERA (60.2IP, 19ER) with six Quality Starts.

high three-game winning streak…Allowed three walks for the second consecutive start.

QUALITY STREAK: Has made six straight Quality Starts dating back to August 7, the longest

the second-longest of his career behind a career-best eight-game streak (June 6-July 20, 2013).

DEEPER WATERS: Gonzalez has thrown at least 100 pitches in four consecutive starts, one shy

of his career-long streak of five straight outings of 100 or more pitches, set June 22-July 20,

innings and not earned the win…Became the second Oriole starter this season to make two

consecutive starts of 8.0 or more innings (also Chris Tillman, April 6-11).

appearances (11 starts) this season at Oriole Park…In his 30 career home starts, he is 14-8 with a

3.49 ERA (185.2IP, 72ER) and the Orioles are 20-10 in those games…As a reliever at home, he

has a 2.45 ERA (7.1IP, 2ER) in three appearances…In his 33 total appearances, is 14-8 with a 3.45

ERA (193.0IP, 74ER).

ON THE ROAD: In 13 road starts this season, is 5-4 with a 3.48 ERA (77.2IP, 30ER)…In his 37

45 Quality Starts…Worked six or more innings in 48 of his 67 starts and the Orioles are 39-28.

JULY FIREWORKS: After going 1-1 with a 6.14 ERA (14.2IP, 10ER) in three June starts, he

pitched to a 1.82 ERA (29.2IP, 6ER) in four July starts…He did not surpass 5.0 innings of work in

any June start and his 6.14 ERA was the highest single month ERA of his career.

MINIMIZE THE DAMAGE: Has allowed 23 home runs in 2014, 19 of which have been solo

shots…Of the 59 homers he has allowed in the majors, 45 have been solo shots…Four were
