Twins pitcher Kyle Gibson will work on his efficiency during the second half, according to the Pioneer Press.
The Twins stress a "two out of three" approach, which focuses on pitchers being ahead in the count three pitches into an at-bat. Getting ahead of the hitter not only increases Gibson's chances at success, but it also allows him to go deeper into games.
"Your pitch count is going to be pretty low, probably," Gibson said, describing the approach. "If they're putting the ball in play in three pitches or less or you're getting to two strikes in three pitches or less, you're probably controlling the at-bat for the most part."
Gibson has a 6.45 ERA in four starts in the majors.
