Erick Fedde threw 80 pitches in three innings against the New York Mets last weekend in D.C., giving up nine hits and seven runs (four earned) in what ended up an 11-9 loss.
Washington Nationals’ bench coach Tim Bogar, who filled in for an ejected Davey Martinez on the bench in that game, talked afterwards about Fedde’s outing not being as bad as his line looked.
“I honestly thought he didn’t pitch that bad,” Bogar said. “He gave up a lot of ground ball base hits, you know, if he gets a couple ground balls right at people, it’s a whole different day.
