C is for Control

Sean Burnett has pitched forty-five innings and given up zero home runs.

Jose Mesa has allowed one in forty innings; Brian Meadows has allowed one in forty-four.

I do believe Sean Burnett leads the majors for most innings without a home run allowed. Say what you want about the lack of strikeouts, the lack of gopher balls also deserves notice.

Jason Bay may have some competition for ROY before the year is done.
