Rox / Nats Tonight- Under first 5.. and No Score first inning?

KingLebronOwnzu23 · May 14, 2010

I hate to bet against the nats of late with the way they are playing hot. But I just see the league's lowest era pitchers in a pitchers duel, 1-0, 2-0, 2-1 type of game which makes the under thru 5.. no score first inning if they dont get to zimmerman... and oh, the other one - the UNDER for the total hits-runs-errors...

Im just saying, any thoughts on this?

dude has a tight-ass strike zone...would not touch unders with him calling a game but pitchers certainly have stout stats

so you think both pitchers will be working a little harder tonight....

so this means the pitchers will work harder?

well sort of

what it means is that the narrow strike zone allows for more BB's, of course, but it really allows hitters to focus in on a smaller zone. check out his stats not only for this year but his career when calling nl games. avg is about 10 per
