Gallardo versus Houston, Take 2


From ESPN.com's Tristan H. Cockcroft: "Gallardo's only career complete game came against the very Astros he faces Wednesday, on April 24, as he went the distance allowing two runs on five hits while striking out seven. For his career Gallardo is a perfect 3-0 in three starts against Houston, with a 0.75 ERA, 0.96 WHIP and an average of eight innings per turn.



Rodriguez turned in another impressive start Thursday, striking out 11 and walking none while limiting the Rockies to three runs (two earned) over seven innings.
Rodriguez has been absolutely outstanding so far this season


Here's the reason that the Yovani Gallardo-Wandy Rodriguez matchup is so intriguing: Gallardo's only career complete game came against these very Astros, on April 24, as he went the distance allowing two runs on five hits while striking out seven. For his career Gallardo is a perfect 3-0 in three starts against Houston, with a 0.75 ERA, 0.96 WHIP and an average of eight innings per turn. But Rodriguez, his counterpart, is a beast in home games, with four quality starts in as many appearances there this year and a 0.67 ERA and 0.65 WHIP in those games. Since 2007 he's 13-9 in 33 starts at Minute Maid Park, with a 2.66 ERA and 1.11 WHIP, so expect a battle.
