Homer Bailey thought there was room for improvement after his first start of the season.

“There’s room for growth,” the veteran righty said.

Specifically, Bailey was disappointed with his pitch count rising so quickly.

“I could definitely have been more efficient with my pitches,” he said. “Could have worked harder to get first-pitch strikes. But we did get some soft contact, which is what you’re looking for.”

The team could also be tempted by another young arm at Triple-A Omaha, left-hander Richard Lovelady.
