“I thought to myself, ‘I can’t let my first half go to waste on an inning like this,’ ” Fedde said. “I need to bear down and get through it. Luckily made some pitches and got through with a zero.” “To take a record into the break of 7-3 when our team is not winning many games is a tribute to him. Eleven out of 19 starts has gone six innings or more. This kid is extremely deserving of representing the White Sox in the All-Star Game.”“Of course I would be honored to do something like that,” Fedde said, “but you know, I’m a big believer if you don’t like it, play a little better, right? We’ll see what happens.”He entered Wednesday tied for fourth among all pitchers in bWAR .

I couldn’t be happier with myself in the first half. I’ve thrown well, grown, for the most part.
