Lincecum 6.0 6 5 5 3 2 1 87-48 2.37
This is Lincecum's line from last nights game against the Reds. Very similar to Balester's last start against the Reds. Everyone has lousy games. We don't know which pitches they are making him " Tryout" on Major League hitters. There is no better place to work on things for next year than on Major league hitters. ( 4 Seam fastball) We will see if Balester will " shake off" pitches more often tonight.
Balester is due for a good start and I know he wants to get into the 7th inning as his pitch count has been down but his era has been rising. It seems like when Balester throws what pitches he wants to he had ( 2) - 7 pitch innings. We will see what happens tonight.
Just keep those pitches down in the zone - those high fastballs end up in the bleachers.
