Joe Blanton vs. Nationals
Posted by Andy on September 16, 2009
Check out Joe Blanton's numbers so far this season. Not including his nice start tonight, he's 9-7 in 27 starts with a 4.11 ERA. But against the Nationals (again, before tonight) he was 0-2 in 4 starts with a 9.45 ERA over 20.0 innings. By doing a little math, that means he was 9-5 with a 3.40 ERA against everybody else.
I guess things really do average out over time, though, as Blanton tonight pitched 6 scoreless ininngs against the Nats and picked up the win.
