Well, Ventura pretty much kicked ass today. Great velocity, movement and location on his pitches. He picked off one runner with a wicked pickoff move and throw. One thing I will say is that he needs to learn to mix his pitches better. At this point he's a terrific thrower who needs to learn to pitch. He got taken deep for one homerun and the other hit bounced off the top of the 12 foot centerfield wall. Final line: 7 IP 2H 1R 2BB 7K The official line doesn't include a batsman he hit in the walk total for whatever reason.
