Mike Hampton showed signs of his old control in his last start, walking just one Giant in seven innings. For the season, he’s walked seven in 16 innings pitched.
Dan Uggla blames his slump on an injury:
”I’ve been struggling ever since I came back from the ankle [injury],” he said. “It’s just not as strong as it was before.”
Uggla posted averages of .185/.286/.326 since returning from the injury with only three home runs in 26 games. He still ranks in the top ten in National League home runs, however.
Jamie Moyer cut his home run rate by 1/3 since the All-Star break. He allowed 24.6 HR per 200 innings pre break, but just 16.7 HR per 200 innings since.
