In addition to exits with fanfare, one of the Dodgers seemingly-firm records was broken by a pitcher who hopes to be around next year. All-Star Hong-Chih Kuo’s scoreless ninth inning dropped his ERA to 1.20, a single-season franchise low for a minimum 50 innings pitched, unseating Eric Gagne. “It feels good,” said Kuo. “I’m just happy to have the opportunity to pitch regularly.” -------- http://sports.espn.go.com/los-angeles/mlb/news/story?id=5646083 By Tony Jackson ESPNLosAngeles.com Immediately after the final out, which fittingly was recorded by reliever Hong-Chih Kuo -- more on that later -- Torre was presented with a large painting of himself in a Dodgers uniform by sports artist Opie Otterstad, who did a similar painting for retiring Atlanta Braves manager Bobby Cox. Finally, Torre made a point of bringing in Kuo -- the situation actually called for it, but Torre was planning to bring him in no matter what -- so Kuo could post the lowest single-season ERA (minimum 50 innings) in franchise history. Kuo pitched around a leadoff walk to retire the final three Diamondbacks hitters, nailing down his 12th save and leaving him with an ERA of 1.200, just edging the 1.202 posted by Eric Gagne in 2003, when Gagne went 55-for-55 in save opportunities and won the National League Cy Young Award. ------- http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20101003&content_id=15399390 &vkey=recap&fext=.jsp&c_id=mlb http://is.gd/fJvL3 By Ken Gurnick / MLB.com | 10/03/10 9:26 PM ET Joe Torre was presented a 3-1 win over the D-backs in his last game, which also provided a send-off to retiring catcher Brad Ausmus, an ERA record for closer Hong-Chih Kuo, double-digit wins for starting pitcher Ted Lilly, Matt Kemp homering in a fifth consecutive game and a .300 batting average for shortstop Rafael Furcal. After rookie reliever Kenley Jansen lowered his ERA to 0.67 (27 innings) with a scoreless eighth, Kuo got his 12th save with a scoreless ninth, in the process besting the all-time franchise ERA record of his "idol," Eric Gagne, at 1.20, which also is lowest in the Major Leagues for a minimum of 50 innings. "He's still my idol," Kuo said of Gagne after breaking his record. -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 220.248.128.141
