Having Milt Pappas as the guest 7th inning stretch singer with the Reds playing was cold. More than a chance draw IMO.

Thanks guys. I was fuzzy on that rule.

Well, there's no choice in the situation. He came in the game in a save situation and completed the game with the Reds still having the lead. He has to get the save and since Iggy was ineligible for the win, Hoover gets it. It's a vulture win but it's a win nonetheless. The official scorer has no discretion in this case.

I got home and turned the game on at just about the time Votto homered. So I'll take partial credit for the win.
