BOSTON -- It's almost mind boggling how a pitcher can be in the Top 10 in both wins and walks. In the American League, only Red Sox right-hander Daisuke Matsuzaka has managed to walk -- for lack of a better word -- that high-wire act this season. "I do think it was a waste to walk him there," said Matsuzaka, now 11-2 with a 3.04 ERA. "I wasn't too concerned about the stolen base because, even with him in scoring position, I felt confident that I'd be able to hold him there. So after I walked him, I wanted to start fresh, but I just think I had too straightforward an approach there." What Kotchman hit was a cutter that never did cut. "That pitch was a cutter to the outside, but I didn't cut it very well, so it was essentially a fastball," said Matsuzaka, who was charged for seven hits and six runs over five-plus innings. If there is one reason why Matsuzaka is on pace to have a far better record and ERA this year than in his rookie season of a year ago, it's been his ability to avoid the big inning. But that trend did not hold true to form Monday night, as the big inning found Matsuzaka in a big way. "I think he's more experienced, and has a better understanding," said Red Sox catcher Jason Varitek. "There isn't as much newness to everything that he does. I think his stuff was much better than his end result was today. But that was one of the first times that that's happened." And even in defeat, Matsuzaka vowed to gain something from it. "I think when I'm facing a good team like the Angels, I need to mix up my pitches a little bit more and add some more variation," Matsuzaka said. "While I'm disappointed in the loss, I do feel it was a rare learning opportunity out there." -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 118.171.11.37 ※ 編輯: phoenixtwo 來自: 118.171.11.37 (07/31 20:42)
