Ted Lilly

Ted Lilly looked pretty shaky in the first inning of Game 2. That's not surprising, because Lilly tends to get better as his pitch count goes up. Check this out:

Pitch Ct Avg. OPS

1-25 .264 .805
26-50 .249 .723
51-75 .244 .691
76-100 .205 .587


But he's not quite out of the woods yet:


Inning Avg. OPS

1 .260 .765
2 .286 .866
3 .237 .729
4 .191 .574


He'll be pitching in the second inning with a lead, so if he holds form, he's got a little cushion for a bad inning in the second.
