Paul Nauert is now a staunch 17-5 for the home team as HPU on the season...even taking down the best team and likely Cy Young leading Ryu...against Folty and that Braves pen.
If you're annoyed at all this umpire gibberish and using it to cap...I understand and leave you with this...
Ryu season first pitch strike %= 62 - last night with Nauert- 50%
Ryu- not fly ball pitcher had a FB/GB ratio of 8/4 (last and more common outing he was 4/12)
Folty- a fly ball pitcher had an 8/1 ratio last night
Ryu had his worst strand rate (not counting Coors) since April!...as well as his lowest GB rate on the entire season! He threw more pitches getting less outs than any outing since again, Coors but aside from that...April!
Oh and he also received HALF his normal run support...against a starter with a 6.09 ERA and a bullpen with an MLB worst 6.93 ERA since the break!
