Billingham Placed in Reds Bullpen to Regain Focus
Cincinnati Reds manager Sparky Anderson moved Jack Billingham to the bullpen to steady his rhythm after a 5-5 record and 5.05 ERA. Billingham, who has not won since May 23, has allowed 24 runs in his last five starts and says he will fix mistakes with the move despite feeling he has been throwing well. Anderson cited him pressing as the reason for the shift.
