2012 Rockies Game #29: Alex White vs. Jeff Suppan

By Andrew T. Fisher
The only pitch Jeff Suppan threw in an MLB stadium in 2011 was in the NLCS.
The only pitch Jeff Suppan threw in an MLB stadium in 2011 was in the NLCS.

Jeff Suppan is 37 and has 16 complete games in his career. Alex White is 23 and has allowed 15 home runs in his career. Suppan has more career innings pitched in the playoffs (57.0) than White has in his career (51.1). So you get it. Suppan is old. White is young. Both are reasons not to trust a pitcher.

This is Suppan's second start of the season, and second start since 2010. He tossed five shutout innings against the Brewers at Petco last week.

An overflow will be posted at 9:30 MDT.
