Developing Control
Justin Germano continues to impress in the Padres rotation. He pitched six innings today against the Devil Rays, allowing just four hits and no runs. His strikeout totals aren't high, but he just doesn't issue many walks. Tampa Bay batters drew one today, bring Germano's total to five for the season in 42 innings pitched. That's very different than the start of his career. Through 2006, he walked 17 in 28 innings. His ERA took a dive with his walk rate.
J.P. Howell pitched well, but no run support may doom him to a loss. The Padres lead 6-1 in the top of the ninth.
