Almost all the games today in which the pitcher made a previous start feature one starter with a very low ERA and one with a rather high ERA. A less extreme match-up like this takes place in Washington, which for the moment is Canada on the Anacostia. The visiting Nationals take on the homeless Blue Jays at Nationals Park with Erick Fedde facing Hyun Jin Ryu. Fedde gave up four hits in four innings, but the only run came on a solo home run. Ryu gave up four hits in 4 2/3 innings, but the double and home run he allowed both game with men on base.

The other somewhat even match-up takes place in Detroit where the Royals send Brady Singer against Ivan Nova. It was a sunshine day for Brady in his MLB debut as he struck out seven and waled two in five innings. Nova, on the other hand, was wild, walking four and striking out just two in his five innings of work.

Enjoy!

Speaking of Brady singers:
