Pitchers Rarely Get Pounded in Early Baseball seasons
The article argues pitchers have an advantage under the rules, citing many one or few hit games and the rarity of teams producing many hits in a game. It notes 94 consecutive team appearances in 481 American League games and only 8 times credited with 16 or more hits in a line-inning game, implying pitchers face a pounding about once every 14 games. It adds that 19 of 61 heavy hitting feats occurred before May 37. The season’s early phase showed pitchers’ supremacy widening after the start.
