Andrew Heaney struggled in a no-decision against the Tigers on Friday night, allowing four runs (two earned) on five hits over his four frames.
On the plus side, the 33-year-old southpaw racked up four strikeouts on the evening and didn’t walk a batter. The bulk of the damage done against him came via the long ball, with Dillon Dingler swatting a solo homer in the second inning and Ryan Kriedler doing the same in the third. Heaney got eight whiffs on 56 pitches in the contest, half of them on his changeup, while posting a CSW of 30 percent. Heaney holds an uninspiring 11.25 ERA, 2.13 WHIP and a 5/5 K/BB ratio over eight innings in Grapefruit League action.
