Andrew Heaney (2-9, 4.17 ERA) vs. Cole Irvin (6-4, 3.74 ERA)
Andrew Heaney of the Texas Rangers has experienced a trying season as they left-handed pitcher, going 2-9 with an ERA of 4.17 but showing some promising signs in his work such as 75 strikeouts over 77.2 innings pitched and 12 homers allowed. Though vulnerable against power hitters like Baltimore Orioles power hitters (12 home runs allowed in 2013 alone). Yet Heaney has maintained an acceptable 1.31 WHIP which shows while baserunners may reach him without being overhit with key hits doing damage rather than his pitch count being high enough.
Cole Irvin stands in stark contrast to Heaney in terms of pitching consistency and control; boasting an ERA of 3.74 with only 15 walks issued over his 77 innings pitched so far this season, alongside an identical 1.31 WHIP score but lower homer run rates (9 total), makes an impressionistic portrayal of someone capable of managing games effectively without giving away too many runs; Irvin relies less on overwhelming batters while more on inducing weak contact, complementing Orioles defensive strengths well.
Heaney and Irvin will face off in an exciting pitcher duel where Heaney’s strikeout abilities meet Irvin’s command and efficiency. While Heaney looks to overpower Orioles hitters with speed, Irvin prefers finesse and location in his game; both pitchers may expose each other’s weaknesses during this enthralling contest.
