My thoght on the bad run is that the batters seem to get hits off you, but they don't for me... (and others have reported similar findings when brought up in the past).
Keep in mind bad things are more likely to stick with you... so you'll remember the homers you've given up using Pitch Around longer than those given up normally..
The Pitch Around will increase chances for a walk, but not by enough (IMO) I have mentioned this on the board before (because I thought it was an exploit with all the success my pitchers have using it) and others stated that they though the frequency was proper... that Pitch Around, wasn't Pitch Around the plate, but merely Pitch Around the batters strengths..
