Gasser and Kirby Both Laboring Early at AmFam Field
Both starters are burning through pitches at an unusually high rate, with baserunners piling up and the game crawling through four innings.
Colin Gasser needed 77 pitches to record just 11 outs, issuing leadoff walks in three of his four innings. George Kirby was similarly inefficient, throwing 84 pitches to get 10 outs while allowing 11 of 20 batters to reach base. The game was only in the fourth inning after one hour and 40 minutes of play. Both bullpens are likely to see heavy usage given the early pitch counts.
