One Pitch Key For Keller in Needed Rebound Outing (+)
PITTSBURGH — Coming into Friday’s game against the Philadelphia Phillies, Pittsburgh Pirates’ All-Star starting pitcher Mitch Keller had been stuck in a bit of a rut.
Actually, it was a pretty big rut which dates back further than his post-All-Star Game struggles in his first two outings of the second half.
Dating back to May 26, Keller had an ERA of 5.51 (40er/65.1ip) over his last 11 starts.
On Friday night, Keller looked much more like the pitcher who earned his first-ever All-Star appearance.
