Keeping It Close
October 18, 2010
- Andy Pettitte got roughed up in the first inning, surrendering two runs on a
Josh Hamilton home run. But he’s been dominant since then.
Following
Hamilton’s homer, Pettitte has retired 17 out of 19 batters, while striking out five.
Pettitte has
been ahead of the count on nearly every batter, and he has not issued a
walk the entire game.
Pettitte’s
determination to rebound from a difficult start has been inspiring. Hopefully,
the Yankees hitters will give him a few runs to work with.
