Niemann was on a pitch count,
but in his first outing, he went 3IP, 1H, 4K, 0BB. a good return. it’s also good to see Salas pitching in AAA, and looking well so far.

I just saw an article on that.
We have in Mar/Apr 2007 in MLB: .256 .330 .402
And this year: .258 .332 .401That’s remarkably close. The runs scored per 27 outs in each year: 3785 runs in 7490.1 innings, 4.55 runs per 27 in 2008. 3360 in 6670.1, or 4.53 runs per 27 in 2007.
