Scott Feldman & Jason Hammel

[webbrick2010]

Both had excellent first starts...

I had always thought it would be a good idea to take a flyer on Jason Hammel... although I don't know whose spot on the 25 he would have deserved.

A dazzling debut for Hammel's 2014 season.

Before walking the final batter that he had faced, he retired 19 out of the previous 20 batters.

He was at 73 Pitches (46 Strikes, 27 Balls) through 5 inning.

He threw 14 Pitches (9 Strikes, 5 Balls) in the 6th inning.

He threw 11 Pitches (6 Strikes, 5 Balls) in his 7th and final inning, of which he departed after recording 2 outs, and allowing a bases on balls.

The runner that he left on base (first base, with 2 outs in the 7th inning) was allowed to score after reliever James Russell allowed a double, and Justin Grimm allowed a single up the middle. He still has a chance to get the W though, as the Cubs lead the game by a score of 3-2 after 7 complete.

My apologies for only having the pitch count per inning for Hammel's final 2 innings of work.

I didn't see the first 5 innings of the game.

Hammel was facing the Pirates today, not the Nationals.

Hammel is dealing again today.
