What goes around comes around.The Padres have been shutout 7 times this season, and only scored 1 run in Dustin Moseley's first four starts, but yesterday reversed the polarity of those two trends, and won 7-0 over the Hated Dadgers.
I wasn't able to watch the game, but in looking at the highlights, Dustin's pitches had a lot of bite. Most notably, he K'd Matt Kemp looking in the 7th with a pitch that bit at the absolute last moment over the outside corner of the plate. Pure nasty.
After six starts Dustin's ERA stands at 1.63, good for second in the National League, and fourth best in all of baseball, behind some no-namers like Josh Johnson, Jered Weaver, and Dan Haren. He's not doing it with gaudy peripherals, but like the saying I just made up goes, why worry about peripherals as long as you're keeping earned runners from scoring?
