Column: Aztecs need more quality starts from their pitchers
San Diego State baseball has had a recurring problem on the mound with its starting pitchers.
The Aztecs’ (14-10, 4-3 MW) starting pitching staff isn’t going deep enough into games.
The lack of deep starts and a number of injuries to the starting pitching have forced position players to make their debuts on the mound.
By definition, a starting pitcher needs to last at least six innings and prevent less than three runs from scoring for the outing to qualify as a quality start.
SDSU has only had four quality starts from its pitchers so far this season.
