After giving up five hits and three earned runs in six innings on the mound in San Diego last time out, in a 5-4 loss to the Padres in which he received no decision, Washington Nationals’ starter Erick Fedde had a 2.70 ERA, a 4.50 FIP, seven walks, 13 Ks, and a .260/.341/.384 line against in 20 IP as a starter this season.
“If we can get that out of Fedde, we’re going to be in good shape,” Davey Martinez said after that outing in Petco Park.
“Every time he goes out there he’s getting more and more confident, he’s making pitches, and he pitched really well.
