While the Chicago White Sox are still waiting for Jake Peavy to make his first official pitch for the team, the Padres are getting plenty of mileage out of one of the four pitchers they obtained in the trade with the White Sox on July 31. Clayton Richard, who gets the start Sunday for the Padres in the final game of a three-game series with the Rockies at PETCO Park, will make his ninth start for the team and his first against Colorado. Richard is 4-2 with a 5.40 ERA in eight starts and has shown promise at times and has struggled at others.
Here are Clayton Richard‘s home/away splits from B-R:
I Split W L W-L% ERA G GS GF CG SHO SV IP H R ER HR BB IBB SO HBP BK WP BF WHIP SO/9 SO/BB
Home 3 0 1.000 1.88 4 4 0 0 0 0 24.0 16 5 5 2 12 0 22 0 1 96 1.167 8.3 1.83
Away 1 2 .333 10.69 4 4 0 0 0 0 16.0 29 19 19 4 11 0 9 0 0 85 2.500 5.1 0.82
Seems like, Clayton should put a ‘I love Petco Park’ poster above his bed!
