It wasn’t like Ian Kennedy was that bad. He wasn’t superb, like most of 2011, finishing with a 21-4 record and 2.88 ERA. He wasn’t brilliant like his only start against the Milwaukee Brewers this season, shutting them down for 7 innings, allowing only 4 hits. Still, in comparison to the gem thrown by Yovani Gallardo, striking out nine in eight innings, yeah, the playoff opener for the Diamondbacks ace kinda sucked.
