The Return of Sir Sidney
Sidney Ponson last eight innings against the Royals, turning the game over to Wilson in the top of the ninth with a 2-1 lead. He struck out five and walked two, and allowed six hits, none for extra bases. Most of all, he was efficient, using just 108 pitches to complete the eight innings.
Grienke pitched very well, striking out nine over seven innings without a walk and just four hits. Unfortunately for Zack, two of those were home runs. He had allowed just two in his first 36 innings. He can't get the win, however.
Update: Wilson strikes out Teahen to end the game and Ponson is looking very good in his comeback bid. His ERA in two starts is 1.35.
