Matt Belisle vs Mike Pelfrey

Complete Coverage >

W-L ERA WHIP K BB 2008 - Matt Belisle1-26.911.9172

W-L ERA WHIP K BB 2008 - Mike Pelfrey2-25.271.921114

Pelfrey has pitched more than 5.1 innings in just one start this year and he's given up 5 runs in each of his last two starts. The big thing that sticks out about him is that he has 3 more walks than strikeouts so far. Also, he's given up 12.5 hits per nine innings this year. Hopefully the Reds have the patience to wait for their pitch, because it looks like Pelfrey will give it to them.

Not that Belisle is much better, but at least he's avoided giving up a bunch of walks this year. Unfortunately, he's been even more hittable than Pelfrey, surrendering over 15 hits per nine innings this season. Suffice to say, this could turn into a barn burner very easily tonight.

And don't forget, andromache is on Jeopardy tonight! Check local listings.

Sexson Suspended. World not shocked.

Seattle first baseman Richie Sexson has been suspended for six games for charging the mound Thursday night. Texas pitcher Kason Gabbard was not fined or suspended. Seattle pitcher Felix Hernandez was also fined as were Rangers catcher Gerald Laird and pitcher Sidney Ponson.

Sexson should have gotten a few more games than that just for being a dumbass.

Thanks Foul Territory.
