I'm guessing Ugie Urbina is not a fan of Citizens Bank Park, which is his new home in Philly. How could he be? He went from one of the most spacious parks -- Comerica in Detroit -- to a band box.
So far since Urbina was traded from the Tigers to the Phils, he has given up 5 HR in 5 1/3 innings at the Zen and posted a 15.19 ERA. On the road for the Phils, he is unscored upon in three outings.
At Comerica this year, Urbina gave up 4 R in 15 IP and had a 2.40 ERA.
It's got to be tough watching balls that would have been caught in Comerica end up in the seats in Philly. I guess Urbina has got to change his approach at the Zen and realize there is no margin for error. Otherwise, it will be a long second half for Ugie and the Phils.
