A friend of mine attended Notre Dame during the years when Dan Devine coached. Apparently one Sunday morning Mr. Devine awoke to find about 20 "House For Sale" signs stuck in his front yard.
So Santana has a low K-rate but still has an astonishing BAA. Last night he threw 104 pitches in a complete game. Seems to me that pitch-to-contact is working.
Just checking in. Usually the goal of the starting pitcher is to give his team a chance to win the game. Tonight the starting pitchers are giving the other team a chance to win the game.
Team A wins 4 of every 7 games. Team B wins 3 of every 7 games. That means team A goes 92-70 and contends for the World Championship while team B goes 70-92 and, well, nowhere.
