Petco Park has been considered the premier pitching stadium in baseball. But the new Globe Life Park in Arlington, which opened last July, is challenging Petco as the best pitching park in the majors.
Lefty Rich Hill is one of the hottest pitchers in baseball. He goes for the Rays against Texas southpaw Kolby Allard.
Hill has a 1.11 ERA during his last seven starts spanning 40 2/3 innings. He's struck out 46 batters during this span. Hill is backed by a Tampa Bay bullpen that has the third-lowest ERA in the AL.
Allard is a former first-round draft pick of the Braves, who has pitched mainly in relief compiling a 3.38 ERA. He gave up two runs on two hits during his lone start against the Mariners on May 27. Tampa Bay is batting .219 versus lefties. The Rays rank 13th out of 15 American League teams in batting average, slugging percentage and OPS against left-handed pitching.
