What does a BAD game look like?

By , 02:29 PM

This barely warrants a thread, but I was watching the end of the Tigers/Twins game last night, and twice the Tiger announcers mentioned that Dontrelle Willis had pitched a “pretty good” game.

His line was 4 2/3 IP, 8 hits, 2 walks, no K, and 4 runs, for an ERA of 7.71.

Seriously, if that is a “pretty good outing” what does a bad one look like?
