+9 pts
Dylan Crews is a worse strikeout risk than usual tonight, and his season strikeout rate does not show it. He strikes out 33% of the time against the kind of pitches Tanner Gordon throws, compared with 24% against everyone else — 9 points worse. The reason is the changeup: Tanner Gordon throws it 22% of the time, and Dylan Crews strikes out 46% of the time against it across 28 plate appearances. A season strikeout rate averages every kind of pitcher he has faced, so a matchup like this disappears into it.
