.667 at home and .500 on the road....
That translates to a 54-27 home record....have always wanted the REDS to figure out how to dominate at home again like the Big Red Machine did.
....and a 40-41 road record...will produce an overall record of 94-68, which should win the division easily.....so, maybe a .600 home record and .500 road record....that would produce an 89-73 record, which might win a wild card and maybe the division. So, on this 6-game road trip, I'm hoping for 3-3, preferably 2 of the wins in Chicago. We're 4-2 at home so far. Looking good. Even though we lost a 3-2 game, I think we can win our share of 3-2 games.

Re: .667 at home and .500 on the road....
After starting 0-2 with two frustrating losses, a pleasant recovery on this trip. One of the next two and it has been a succesful week in Arizona and Chicago. Steal the next two and it will be in the unexpectedly pleasant range.
