Call it the WCBias karma, call it freaking luck, call it the sun even shines on a former Gaucho once in a blue moon.
Barry “Zero” Zito earned his first win of the season after eight straight losses, and a slump-busting blog entry by yours truly today, pitching the San Francisco Giants past the Florida Marlins 8-2.
Zito (1-8) allowed a run and three hits in six-plus innings innings.
It’s his first win since Sept. 30, 2007, when he beat the Dodgers in the season finale.
Even better, it’s his 12th win in 43 starts for the Giants. Let me see, that’s works out to be about $10.5 million a start. What a bargain those Barrys end up being for the Giants.
