The career of a man named Lynn - RTTS

After pitching 1 1/3 innings in yesterday's blowout, I am called in again today against the Fisher Cats to pitch in the top of the 13th inning. I was able to pitch a scoreless 13th but in the 14th I allowed two runs to score before being pulled with 2 outs and runners on base. Needless to say, the team continues to mire in a hitting slump and we ended up losing 3-1.

After receiving a day of rest I am now called upon to make my start in the last game of the 4-game series with New Hampshire. I got dinged up for single runs in the first and third innings then I got pulled in the fifth after getting the first hitter out with the score tied 2-2. I guess that the manager didn't want me to throw any more because I had already thrown in relief two out of the first three games of the series. My replacement surrendered six runs in the fifth and we went on to lose the game 9-3.

Despite how I threw, I managed to reach 4 of my 5 goals with, of course, me not meeting the last goal, which concerned to hits allowed. I received a pat on the back for the good effort and was given five goals for the last three weeks of the regular season.

1.  increase stamina over next 6 series
2.  increase h/9 attribute over next 6 series
3.  have a WHIP of 1.750 or lower
4.  have at least 15.0 innings pitched
5.  allow 24 hits or less

Our pitchers needed a rest so while we are getting shellacked by the Reading Phillies today, the manager called on me to enter the top of the 8th with 2 on, 2 out and 1 run already in with the score now 11-0. I strike out the hitter to end the 8th then I pitched a 1-2-3 ninth. The team managed to score a run in the 8th and 9th innings and we lost 11-2.

Holy cow! This is a disaster for our man Ryan. If there was a Single A surely he would be sent down with those hits allowed numbers.

We headed on the road after the game yesterday and I was asked to make my scheduled start today against the Bowie Baysox despite pitching 1 1/3 innings yesterday. I got off to a good start and threw four shutout innings before allowing the first two runs of the ball game in the fifth. I allowed the first two hitters of the sixth inning to get hits and was pulled. My replacement allowed those two runners to score and we ended up losing 4-1. I did make some progress though, I think, because I got out of a 1st & 3rd, 0 out jam by striking out the next two hitters then got the next one to ground out to end the inning in the 4th.

Don't worry. It gets worse!

The Fisher Cats are in town for our last homestand of the regular season and this is probably my next to last start of the season. I allowed a 2-run homer by #8 to tie the game 4-4, then got pounded some more and left in the fifth inning with runners on base and down 5-4. My replacement again allowed the two runners to score to boost my ERA up even further. When will this disaster end!
