| and yet . . . |
Losing 1-0 is perhaps the most frustrating of all ways (really? no runs? on nine hits?), and yet I found myself feeling weirdly good for Yusei Kikuchi, who is finally pitching well enough that he is in a position to lose this kind of game, and be disappointed in this very specific way. He was probably heartbroken! And yet he spent all of last year, and much of the season before, heartbroken for any number of other reasons, all of them worse. I think I saw that Kikuchi has the lowest ERA in either league since the All-Star break, a 1.34 or 1.54 or something similarly ludicrous. Good for him! And, indeed, for us.
