How Do You Spell Dominant? P-E-A-V-Y
Jake Peavy's line last night: 7.0 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 10 SO, 0 HR.
Although we've become accustomed to Peavy putting up numbers like that every fifth day, sometimes you need to just appreciate what he's done. Ten strikeouts to only one walk. That's incredible. For the season, he's striking out 5.92 batters per one that he walks. Jake's BB/9 rate is 1.71 and K/9 rate is 10.14. Also, with seven scoreless innings last night, he dropped his ERA to 2.29 and moved his record on the year to 4-0 (the Padres are 8-1 in games Peavy starts).
