Zito Not Terrible

Barry Zito actually picked up a quailty start last night, although it was about the lowest quality that would qualify. He pitched six innings, allowing three runs. All three came in the sixth and tied the game. The Giants got to Roy Oswalt early, but Roy found his groove and struck out six over eight innings of work for the 7-3 win.

In two games back, Zito allowed five runs in 11 innings. That's not ace material, but at least he'll stick in the rotation with those numbers. His walks are way down, so he's making progress.

Lance Berkman continued his hot hitting, picking up a double and a homer to raise his slugging percentage to .800. He has 12 extra-base hits in ten May games.
