Dibs Not Drive

A tale of two pitchers...

T: Last week, against a very inconsistent Royals offense, Tigers pitcher Jason Johnson threw 6 and 2/3 innings of shutout ball. He scattered five hits, struck out four, and gave up only one base-on-balls for his first win of the season. Certainly worthy of being called a good pitching performance.

Tonight, however, Jason Johnson had a very different outcome. Pitching against the Twins, he only recorded one out before getting yanked from the ballgame. His stat line: seven hits, one walk, and five earned runs. For the night, his ERA is a staggering 135. Ah, if only he could pitch against the Royals every game...
