Exhuming McCarthy
Here's the part I'm having a hard time with.
August 30, 2005, White Sox at Rangers

It was Brandon McCarthy's sixth big league start, and first win.
April 20, 2007, Athletics at Rangers

It was the shortest of McCarthy's 16 big league starts, eclipsing the two-inning stint in his 15th big league start.
The column that stands out the most to me is that final one, the strike-to-ball ratio.
Mechanics, I guess. Otherwise, what's going on?
