The Reds shutout the Indians after Jose Hernandez' second homer in the fourth. Good job Milton and pen!

Actually, after reading RFA66's post, I can see the error of my post. I was thinking of the last late inning win and totally missed the point of the late comeback win.Originally Posted by Falls City Beer

"...its money well-spent. Don't screw around with your freedom."

Even including that Atlanta game, they are few and very far between! Ugh...
But I'll take it tonight!

Reds down 9-5 after 7 innings. Dunn hits a 2 run HR in the bottom of the 8th, and a solo HR by Cruz makes it 9-8 going into the ninth. Weathers gets the win after pitching a scoreless top of the 9th. Griff singles in Freel and Pena hits a two run bomb in the bottom of the inning.

Good one! Of course it was non-televised here. That was the game in which RZ thought Lou Pinella might kill something... kill anything! That Griffey single was CLUTCH. The REDS also hit 6 HRs in that game (poor Lou) off TB pitching.6-08-05

Eric Milton has given up 2 or more HRs in 8 of his 16 starts this season...
4 HRs, 1X
3 HRs, 3X
2 HRs, 4X
1 HR, 6X
0 HR, 2X
I am building a projection into my graph. So far, I am calculating it based on his avg starts a year before this year which was around 28.
He is on pace for 48 per my calculations
Here is how I arrived at it:
TOTALHR * CareerAVGStarts / StartsThisYear
So...
(27 * 28.57) / 16 = 48 (approx)
Not quite on pace to beat the record yet. Now if he does exceed his career avg starts of 28.57 (say, oh, I dunno, 32) then he will have 54. Ouch.
"Thanks for the mem...or...ies"
There really haven't been many. This one stuck out in my mind because it was a close game all the way through, and the Reds came up with just enough at the very end to pull it out.
These are the wins that IMHO a winner wins and the Reds have repeatedly lost this year.
