| Boxscore Breakdown – Sox Still On Break? | 07.16.10 at 10:20 am ET |
* – The Rangers put the first pitch in play against Wakefield 8 times last night, the most in any Wakefield appearance since July 17, 2007. Coming into last night, here are the yearly slash lines (AVG/OBP/SLG/OPS) allowed by Wakefield on “1-pitch” at bats versus “>1 pitch” at bats:
ONE PITCH AT BATS:
2008 – 272/302/457/ 759
2009 – 313/329/507/ 836
2010 – 481/481/852/1333
ALL OTHER AT BATS:
2008 – 222/303/377/680
2009 – 264/349/393/742
2010 – 230/287/382/669
Over 650 points of OPS higher when putting the first pitch in play in 2010 than when they don’t. I wonder what’s changed because 2010 seems to be an outlier as teams have now scorched Wakefield for a .492 average (30-61) with 5 HR on the first pitch this season.
—————————————————————————————————————————–
* – Wakefield has now had 13 starts since 2004 in which opposing batters have put 7 or more first pitches in play. In those starts he’s gone 4-6 with a 4.23 ERA and .256 batting average allowed (including last night).
—————————————————————————————————————————–
* – Thursday was Wakefield’s 403rd start as a member of the Red Sox and just the 4th in which he has allowed opponents to hit over .500 (but the 2nd one this season):
.550 – June 7, 1996 vs Milwaukee
.533 – July 15, 2010 vs Texas
.526 – September 11, 2007 vs Tampa Bay
.522 – May 28, 2010 vs Kansas City
—————————————————————————————————————————–
* – Four members of the Sox bullpen: Robert Manuel, Dustin Richardson, Scott Atchison, and Ramon Ramirez, combined to toss 7 innings without allowing a run last night. It’s just the 2nd time since at least 2005 that the Sox pen has thrown 7+ scoreless innings in a game. The other was May 30, 2008, when six different relievers combined for seven scoreless in an extra innings win over Baltimore.
—————————————————————————————————————————–
* – The Red Sox went 0-5 with runners in scoring position last night. It was just the 5th time since April 20 that they’ve failed to get at least one hit with RISP. Of course from April 15 through April 19 the Sox went without such a hit for 5 consecutive games!
—————————————————————————————————————————–
* – The top four spots in the Red Sox lineup failed to reach base last night. It was the first time that has happened to Boston since July 6, 2009 in a 6-0 loss to Oakland at Fenway. Prior to that, it hadn’t happened since 2006 (at Toronto) and once in 2004 (at San Francisco). The Red Sox had been shut out in all three of those games prior to last night.
—————————————————————————————————————————–
* – Prior to last night’s loss, the Red Sox had won 12 of their last 13 when they hit 2 or more home runs.
