Kerry Wood pitched a good game last night, striking out 10 and allowing two runs in 7 1/3 innings. However, he walked four. In his first 107 IP this year, he walked 43, or 3.6 per 9. In his last 47 1/3 innings, he's walked 32, or 6.1 per 9. He's not going to be successful putting that many runners on base. His ERA for the first period was 2.94; since then, it's been 4.56. Wood strikes out a tremendous number of batters, which is a great strength, but he needs to go back toward being the pitcher who struck out 20 and walked none, or he'll end up with a Bobby Witt career.
