<---- has been arguing for rich hill before tonite.

 

80 percent of this board has been doing that

 

It just seemed like 80% was argueing against me. :)

[Jon]

The most important part of that line is 1 walk. Hopefully he can keep the walks down when he incorporates the curve.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Kudos, Rich! =D>

[TruffleShuffle]

Two most encouraging things about tonight:

 

1. Only 1 walk - hopefully the control problems in the bigs were just a mental thing that he's overcoming with experience

 

2. Pitch count per inning was low, which he's shown the ability to do well in the minors (despite striking out a LOT of guys)
