Well, you might could call the homer to Corey Hart a Bad Inning, but really it was one of only 2 really hard hit balls. and he went 7 IP with 5 K – including striking out the side in the 5th, 3 singles, 1 homer, 2 walks, 1 run. And absolutely not ONE inning in which he had even the littlest bit of sudden loss of control. Absolutely teh awesomeness.
And the Crew just beat him UP last month – 3 homers, 7 runs over 5.2 IP.
But today, he just had everything working and the ump didn’t gift him with any close strikes and, in fact, on Ishikawa’s walk, 2 balls were clearly in the strike zone. He threw 117 pitches – really surprised me that Millsie-poo let him go back out for the 7th when he had reached 100 after the 6th – 73 strikes. Still not up to Wandy’s masterpiece the other night though.
