Friday, July 10, 2009Padre Offensive WoesPosted by Chris JaffeLast night, San Diego was threatened with a no-hitter, as Giant hurler Tim Lincecum kept them from getting a hit until the seventh inning. Tonight, they were no-hit, by Jonathan Sanchez. It would've been a perfect game had Juan Uribe not made an error in the eighth. So far, so obvious. Let's walk it back a bit. When was the last time the Pads got a hit in any of the following innings? Well . 1st inning - July 2 2nd inning - July 8. 3rd inning - July 5. 4th inning - July 8. 5th inning - July 7. 6th inning - July 7. 7th inning - July 9. 8th inning - July 6. 9th inning - July 8. Yeah, it's been over a week (with a game played every day) since their last first inning hit. In some ways, it's worse than that. They haven't scored a first inning run in two weeks, since June 26. That was also the last time their game's lead-off hitter got a hit. Yeesh. History instructor by day, statnerd by night, Chris Jaffe leads one of the most exciting double lives imaginable; with the exception of every other double life possible to imagine. Despite his lack of comic-book-hero-worthiness, Chris enjoys farting around with this stuff. His new book, Evaluating Baseball's Managers is available for pre-order. Chris welcomes responses to his articles via e-mail. CommentsLeave a comment:Commenting is not available in this weblog entry. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
