Man I feel sorry for Harang. This guy has for the most part pitched pretty dominantly all season long and the record that he has to show for it is mind boggling. After last nights 3-2 loss to the Phillies, Harang's record has dropped to 2-8 overall with an era of 3.86. He has had excellent control posting 78 K's to only 20 walks in 88.2 innings of work. Figure 13 starts and 84.2 innings, which equates to 6 and 2/3's innings per start, not bad at all. He has given up 12 HR's, which is a little above the pace for the 28 he has allowed in each of the last two season's. The poor guy just needs some run support. At this point he will be struggling to finish up around .500 for the season.
Last night he was yanked in the bottom of the 7th. He got one out, but left the game after giving up a single followed up by a double and runners on 1st and 3rd. In came the Reds newest young prodigy, D.Herrera (I haven't dug up any information on him yet, so if anyone has any info, please post it up). Herrera is small, he didn't look much over 5'8" in height. But, he got Harang and the Reds out of that inning and he kept the Phillies in check while doing so. Impressive first game by the rookie. That had to be the biggest highlight of the game.
The bad parts of the game were: Harang losing another game he could have won. Freel collapsing while running out a play at 1st early in the game, more news to come on the injury. (He said he heard and felt a pop in his hammy while trying to run out the play). Bruce got an infield hit in the 7th, Phillips came up and grounded into a double play, which killed any attempts at a rally, and the same thing happend again in the 9th, except Bruce worked a walk to get on in the 9th, but Phillips still lined into a double play killing the rally.
After another 1 run loss in this one it put's us down 0-2 in the 4 game series.
