RECORD BREAKING PACE – THEY AREN’T ALWAYS GOOD ONES
Sometimes stats aren’t always pretty. Just ask Jeter Downs of the Long Beach Dirt Bags.
Going into this week he had 222 strikeouts. This week he had 11 more to give him 233 in 510 plate appearances. He is now only 2 off from the single-season record of 235 currently held by Diory Hernandez from the 2011 season.
STAT UPDATE – COLUMBUS UNSTOPPABLE BULLPEN
Two-headed monster? The Columbus Explorers have just that in the pen.
Jimmy Herget & Felix Bautista dare you to try and beat them.
In 63.1 IP Herget has a ridiculous 0.14 ERA, a 4-0 record with 19 saves, 0.59 WHIP, 66 K’s to go with 12 BB, and only 1, YES 1 earned run all season. This is spread out over 54 games. You can find his full stat and career line here:
Bautista isn’t too far behind with a 0.91 ERA, 4-2 record and 11 saves. His 7 earned runs on the year feel like a ton compared to Herget but don’t let that fool you, he still sports 78 K’s compared to 16 BB in 69.1 IP.
30 wins in which one of these two got the save, I can’t imagine any lineup wanting to go up against them in the 8th & 9th innings.
With the playoffs closing in, can they help lead the Explorers to their 2nd National League Championship to go with their 1st in 2020?
RECORD BREAKING PACE – JV SHUTS EVERYONE DOWN
So, you think you can score?
Not when facing Justin Verlander of the Tempe Tempers. He is currently on pace for a record-breaking season when it comes to ERA.
As it stands in 37 games (31 starts) JV is 26-1 with a 0.50 WHIP and a…1.12 ERA!
This is currently .06 better than Clayton Kershaw in the 2015 season. No big deal for the pitcher with the 2nd most wins all time in the MWBL with 262.
