Moriguchi Stands Out, Choice for Best Pitcher
Tuesday, September 1st, 2015
Yodo Moriguchi left little doubt in the minds of Central League officials that he should be named August's Pitcher of the Month for his outstanding performance.
"I wasn't always confident at the start of a game," said Moriguchi. "Sometimes it's hard to get into the flow -- the calls aren't going your way or you're trying to spot your pitches too much. You just have to relax and use what you've been taught all your life -- get back to basics -- good mechanics, control, location, keep the ball down."
The 26-year-old tossed 34.2 innings of quality baseball -- going 3-2 with a 1.30 ERA and 42 strikeouts.
So far this year Moriguchi has a 13-3 record with a 1.77 ERA.
