Erick Fedde tossed six scoreless innings against the San Francisco Giants, (on 75 pitches), before he was done for the night in the series opener in Oracle Park.
Daniel Hudson, Fernando Rodney, and Sean Doolittle followed the starter on the mound and threw a scoreless inning each in what ended up a 4-0 win for Washington’s Nationals.
Fedde vs SF: Erick Fedde’s nine runs allowed last time out, in an 11-8 loss to the Atlanta Braves, were as many as he gave up in his previous four turns in the rotation, and as he explained to reporters after the outing, it was particularly frustrating that it came in the Nationals’ matchup with the NL East’s division leaders.
