iamshack Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 4, 2010 -> 07:55 PM) How is it you haven't paid any attention to the posts where I've given him credit, but you go after me every time I say something negative about him? Because it would be insane not to give the guy compliments...he's pitching the first time for his new team, against one of his old teams, a division rival, against what are undoubtedly some of his friends... He's gone out and hung a zero up there and you're on the fence about whether the start is not "bad." A flaw you point out is that Inge hit a ball near the warning track? He's done a hell of a job tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's done a hell of a job tonight. He labored through the first 4 innings and it's only by a bit of luck/guile that he gave up nothing there. He's been dominant for the past 2.1. He just wiped a guy out on the slider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 Ok. So, 91 pitches. Does he start the 8th, or go out on top and with a shutout performance? I run him out in the 8th and pull him if anyone reaches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chw42 Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 Great start by EJax thus far. The control has been just awesome. It's just one start, but it appears Don Cooper's already paying off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
