Nice drag bunt to lead off the game by Felipe. This kid is great.
What is it with Ortiz and the first inning? Does anyone have the breakdown of when Ortiz allows his runs? I bet 80% were given up in the first inning.
Ah . . Nationals broadcasters just said Ortiz has given up runs in the first inning in 6 of his last 9 starts.
Reminds me of Tom Glavine back in the day.
Except that Glavine was a good pitcher, who got a lot better after the first inning. At his best, Ortiz is an average pitcher.
Of course, if he and Milton and Hudson had just been average this year, we’d be in the playoffs.
These Washington announcers are great. They just mentioned former Reds manager Mike Miley.
And Ortiz isn’t doing much better in the second inning.
I don’t know about by innings, but here is Ortiz by number of pitches, according to Yahoo:
Pitch Numbers … G …. IP … H … R .. ER … HR . BB … K …. ERA .. WHIP … BAA
Pitch 1-15 ….. 22 .. 13.0 .. 25 .. 21 .. 20 …. 5 .. 7 .. 10 .. 13.85 .. 2.46 .. .403
Pitch 16-30 …. 22 .. 18.0 .. 25 .. 21 .. 17 …. 2 .. 5 … 9 … 8.50 .. 1.67 .. .333
Pitch 31-45 …. 22 .. 23.2 .. 29 .. 11 … 9 …. 3 .. 8 .. 14 … 3.42 .. 1.56 .. .309
Pitch 46-60 …. 21 .. 19.2 .. 28 .. 14 .. 13 …. 8 .. 5 … 9 … 5.95 .. 1.68 .. .341
Pitch 61-75 …. 18 .. 19.1 .. 18 … 5 … 5 …. 1 .. 3 … 8 … 2.33 .. 1.09 .. .247
Pitch 76-90 …. 18 .. 18.2 .. 14 … 6 … 6 …. 4 .. 6 … 9 … 2.89 .. 1.07 .. .219
Pitch 91-105 … 14 … 7.2 .. 12 … 3 … 3 …. 1 .. 3 … 5 … 3.52 .. 1.96 .. .364
Pitch 106-20 …. 1 … 0.2 … 1 … 0 … 0 …. 0 .. 0 … 2 … 0.00 .. 1.50 .. .333
That is a strange set of numbers, and I imagine that it’s pretty rare to see something like that.
Do pitchers have a better batting average against the Reds than against any other team? Seems like we’re always giving up hits to the other hurler.
Homers at RFK for Jose Guillen before yesterday: 1.
Homers at RFK for Jose Guillen in the last game and a half versus the Reds: 2.
The bullpen strikes again.
Maybe Ortiz should throw an extra dozen pitches in the ‘pen. You think?
