"TIGER" AND THE HAND Apparently, the reason Wang has sucked so much lately is that he is battling blister problems...AGAIN. Kind of like Josh Beckett except without as much talent. Thunder start fast, finish poor Thursday, June 10, 2004 By JOHN NALBONE Staff Writer TRENTON -Once the dust had settled and the final beads of sweat had been wiped away on a scorcher of an afternoon yesterday at Waterfront Park, it was nearly impossible to distinguish the kid just up from low Class-A and the Yankees' $1.9 million bonus baby. Jitters were not Wang's problem. Another blister on his pitching hand was. "I just found out about it," Thunder manager Stump Merrill said after being told of the burgeoning welt suddenly emerging from the ring finger of Wang's right hand."Something was obviously wrong.He was just walking too many people." Wang retired Mike O'Keefe on a comebacker to the mound to begin the fifth inning, but he walked three of the next four batters and unleashed a wild pitch to plate the first Sea Dogs run. Wang survived the 33-pitch inning after Kevin Reese hunted down Mike Campo's line drive to deep center field with two outs and the bases loaded, but he would not be nearly as fortunate in the sixth. Lifted by Merrill, but not before putting a pair of runners in scoring position with two outs, Wang gave way to left-hander Scott Wiggins, who was summoned for one reason only-to retire lefty-swinging Joe Killburg. "We did a terrible job offensively after the first inning and the bullpen just didn't get it done," Merrill said. "Guys were chasing balls out of the zone, trying to hit every pitch out of the ballpark.We just had no plate discipline." http://www.nj.com/thunder/times/index.ssf?/base/sports-0/1086854832106100.xml -- ☆ 王建民加油！ＧＯ－ＧＯ～！Ｗａｎｇ～ ☆ -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 218.171.125.54
