Barry, Barry Okay
Barry Zito may walk away from tonight's start with a loss, but also with some positives. He lasted five innings, throwing 99 pitches. That high pitch count is a negative. He allowed five hits, including a home run to Nady. He walked two, but struck out five and only allowed two runs. I like the strikeout number. Zito had only struck out 11 in 28 2/3 innings coming into the game, which is way to low. The five K in five innings indicates Barry is doing something right. He's not all the way back, but there is some hope he's moving in the right direction. The Giants trail 2-0 in the eighth.
