## Resource

Pirates rookie reliever Wilber Dotel is in a slump, surrendering big runs in key seventh-inning appearances—most notably six runs against the Dodgers and four against the Marlins—sparking a sharp rise in his ERA. Though he’s baffled by the sudden drop, his manager points to increased walks as the culprit. Once effective, Dotel now faces a critical challenge: regaining control as MLB hitters adjust to his style. Undeterred, he’s determined to analyze his performances and bounce back on the mound.
