Erick Fedde Picks Up Seventh Win
5 months agoChicago White Sox starting pitcher Erick Fedde threw five innings of scoreless baseball in Wednesday's 3-1 victory over the Twins in the first game of a doubleheader. The righty allowed four hits and two walks while striking out five on his way to earning his seventh win of the season. The renaissance of Fedde continues after spending a season in the KBO, as the 31-year-old is now 7-3 with a 2.99 ERA (3.54 FIP), 1.13 WHIP, and a 15.1% K-BB%. A key element of his success has been keeping the ball in the yard, with a 9.2% HR/FB% this season as compared to a career rate of 16.2%. The former first-round draft pick's next start would come against the Royals after the All-Star break, a team he's seen twice already this season, throwing a combined 10 2/3 innings, allowing one earned run on nine hits and five walks along with nine strikeouts.
