I know it’s just detroit, but if pitching is anywhere close to what it has been this first series, we will be very strong this year.

In our opening 3 game series we’ve held the Tigers to 9 hits. In three games. I know it’s just the Tigers, but 9 hits? That’s absurd.

Our team WHIP (walks and hits / innings pitched) is 0.41

For any one pitcher to be under 1.00 it’s pretty good. For the whole team to be at 0.41? Nuts.

We won’t keep it up… but it’s still a great start to the season.

Update So about two seconds after I click Post, Eddie G. gives up a two-out single to Shane Halter, before closing out the ninth. Which makes the WHIP a still-absurd 0.44. This also goes to show you that in baseball, never click Post until the game is over…
