A Mariners pitcher wanted out of a game.
“This is tough to hear… would not fly in the old days! Unfortunately this is how players are being taught with modern analytics…. What are y’all’s thoughts?” said Clemens, who pitched 24 seasons, six with the Yankees.
Kirby, 25, is one of the game’s best pitchers. A first-time All-Star, he has a 3.48 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 151 strikeouts in 27 games over 165 2/3 innings. He has thrown at least 100 pitches five times this season. The game that drew criticism came against the Tampa Bay Rays, who scored four runs in the seventh to sink the Mariners in an eventual 7-4 win. Kirby began the frame with a groundout then let up a double and a steal before René Pinto homered. Manager Scott Servais then pulled him for a reliever.“Obviously, I screwed up,” Kirby said. “That’s not me. Skip’s always got to pry that ball out of my hands. This is super uncharacteristic of me as a player and who I am out on that mound.
