Shane Bieber Bashed For Season-High Seven Runs
4 months agoCleveland Guardians starting pitcher Shane Bieber threw a season-low four innings against the Baltimore Orioles on Wednesday. The just-turned 28-year-old also yielded a season-worst seven earned runs. Bieber was fortunate to come away with a no-decision after Cleveland's offense took advantage of an O's bullpen game, beating them 12-8. The former Triple Crown pitcher has an unappealing 6.17 ERA and 1.73 WHIP with just 14 punchouts over his last 23 1/3 innings. Bieber's velocity continues to diminish each year and we wouldn't suggest turning to his Statcast page for much solace otherwise. The right-hander's next turn in the rotation comes Tuesday against the Boston Red Sox. In 36 career innings against the BoSox, Bieber owns a dicey 5.50 ERA, his weakest versus any AL club.
