The Book on Phil Irwin

Irwin posted very strong numbers in the minors last season (mostly in Altoona). The big righty was promoted to Indy at the end of...

Buried in the boxscore from the Pirates' comeback walkoff win over the Orioles yesterday is this line:
Irwin: 3 2/3 IP 3 H 1 R 1 ER 0 BB 7 K
In other words, Phil Irwin came into the game in relief of Jeff Locke, faced 14 hitters, and struck out half of them. Spring training games are full of meaningles stat lines (Jared Goedert's hot spring, for example),...
