Re: Last game against Astros for...?

Trivia question is "Who was the last Red's pitcher to lead the league in Wins?"

I think I know the answer, but I'll refrain from blurting it out because I'm fairly certain it's right.

I think Dusty sends Johnny back out for the 5th.

Probably. If this offense doesn't get on track, it won't matter anyway.

It may actually depend on the offense...if we get a few runs, I'm sure Dusty will think about it just to give Johnny a shot at win #18.

I'd say yes as well, but one more hit he goes... Except for the 2 extra runs this was like Leake's start against the Cards who had 10 hits...

Much more recent than most people would think. He TIED for the league lead. I distinctly remember it, because it was one of the few bright points that season.
