Spring Training Gameday Thread, #13: 3/6 vs. Angels

TIL about the Gordie Howe hat trick. It’s an ice-hockey variation on the hat-trick, wherein a player scores a goal, records an assist, and gets in a fight all in one game. It is named after Gordie Howe, well known for his skill at both scoring and fighting. Nothing to do with baseball, but it’s kinda interesting. Anyway, Godley has looked not bad so far, tossing 4.2 scoreless innings on three hits, keeping opposing batters to a .188 average. The main area of doubt is a K:BB ratio in that time of only 4:3, so that’s something to keep an eye on this afternoon.
