Room 222

Posted by Steve Lombardi on April 3, 2008

File this under: Silly but fun things that you can do with Baseball-Reference.com’s Play Index (Pitching Event Finder), Excel, and a few minutes time.  (In addition to: Shameless cross promotion not so cleverly hidden in a PI example...)

In the Yankees game last night, Mike Mussina and La Troy Hawkins both allowed hits on an 0-2 count.

This had me wondering: How many 0-2 hits have Yankees pitchers allowed since I started writing WasWatching.com (on April 20, 2005)?

Here’s the answer: 222 hits allowed on 0-2 counts.

Randy Johnson allowed 35 such hits and Mike Mussina, including last night, has allowed 30 (in this time).

Click here to see the entire list of 222 hits allowed.

    awesome stuff! here's what i discovered from looking at the spreadsheet. Manny Ramirez hit three 0-2 home runs of the Yankees (off Randy Johnson, Chien-Ming Wang, and Scott Proctor!!

    Frank Catalanotto had six 0-2 hits against the Yankees in ONE SEASON! (or is that a mistake in the data?) He had two on 4/19/2006 and two on 7/20/2006? If so, that's amazing!
