Luke Strikes Back: Hackman Regains Form

Looks like EWC knows how to light a fire under a guy.   After a recent post detailing pitcher Luther Hackman’s struggles in the CPBL, the big right-hander has responded with two straight dominant victories and seventeen straight scoreless innings for the Tong-Yi Lions.

Hackman has regained his command, striking out 12 and walking just one in his last seventeen innings pitched. Over the span, he’s lowered his E.R.A. from 5.84 to 3.72 and is making a strong case for gainful employment next season, perhaps across the Yellow Sea into Nippon.   Still armed with a 94 MPH heater, its clear there’s a lot of gas left in the tank.
