Around SBN: Roy Nelson Willing to Pay for His Next Opponent's Drug Test

Tedious Night for Scott Kazmir

This basically says it all:

Kazkzone_medium

That's a ton of yellow within the normalized zone.

Kaz was off from the first pitch, actually the first 10. It took him until a 2-0 count versus the third batter of the game to get a strike call. It was one of those nights. Didn't help matters much that Kazmir lacked a few miles on his fastball nor that Kazmir was going up against a right-handed heavy lineup.

His next start comes against Oakland, in Oakland.

High? Outside?

When batters have only to concern themselves with low & inside and sight lines do not change it becomes much easier to hit any pitch from any pitcher.

Not one ball higher than the strike zone and only going outside on LH batters just doesn’t work.
