Rich Hill Ineffective In Return Start
7 years agoLos Angeles Dodgers starter Rich Hill was knocked out of his first game back from the disabled list in just four innings. The lefty was victimized by three home runs that accounted for all five earned runs against him and now sports a 7.11 ERA on the season. Hill could only throw nine of his 21 first pitches for strikes and walked three. He did strike out five and got a no-decision when the Dodgers bailed him out by tying the game in the bottom of the ninth inning. Hill hasn't relied on velocity for a while now, and his calling card is off-speed stuff. So it's still possible he could turn it around. He'll be given a perfect opportunity to do so against the Reds in L.A. on Sunday.
