Igawa Stumbles On
Well, the story grows tiresome now. Kei Igawa had another bad outing today (June 30) at Yankee Stadium, despite flashes of excellence. I'll never stop being a Kei Igawa fan, but today I'm too dispirited to dredge up the stats of this disappointing game. You can read all about it on the NY Times or NY Yankee websites. The Yankees lost 7 - 0.

Looks like Kei Igawa's next start for the NY Yankees will be Thursday, July 5 at 1:00 pm EDT in the Bronx, against the Minnesota Twins. Igawa is currently 2-2, with a 6.91 ERA.
In his last start on June 30, Kei-san struck out four and walked three, allowing five hits (including three home runs) and four runs in 6 1/3 innings.
Let's hope that Igawa starts to find his inner wa and turns things around from here on.

Kei Igawa was a non-winner/non-loser this afternoon (July 5), on the mound in Yankee Stadium against the Minnesota Twins. Thanks to teammate Hideki Matsui's two-run homer in the eighth inning, the Yankees won the game 7-6. But Igawa continues to be a puzzle in the Bronx.
In his third start since being recalled from the minors on June 22, Igawa allowed five runs and seven hits in five innings. "This outing, I didn't do well at all," he said (through his interpreter). "I don't know when my next start is, but I definitely want to look at the videos, look at myself, and do well the next outing."

I'm really puzzled so far. I've seen some really encouraging signs - and then he seems to slip further back. I'm still hoping he'll do well.

The New York Yankees' website lists Kei Igawa's next start on Monday, July 16 at Yankee Stadium in the Bronx (7:00 p.m. EDT, 4:00 p.m. PDT). Igawa will face the Toronto Blue Jays for the first time, with Josh Towers as their starting pitcher.
