Iglesias a 1-2-3 9th with a K for the save. 9 pitches/8 strikes. Baseball is a funny game

Last time the Reds won a game where their hitters had 2 or fewer hits was a 1-0 victory at St. Louis on 7/29/2015.
Both games were started by Anthony DeSclafani.

Speaking of Disco, he did not have his best stuff tonight and battled through it about as well as could be expected. Outside of that one wacky start he's looked good.

Yeah people are missing the big picture that except for Iggy's blowup the pen has been light out for over a week now.
Speaking of Iggy, did he take a pitch out of his arsenal tonight? I seemed to recall he couldn't throw a curveball for a strike last night, and I'm not sure he threw it at all tonight.

Chris Davis will finish the season with the worst qualified batting average in Major League Baseball history.
To be considered a qualified hitter, a batter must reach 502 plate appearances in a given season.
His 1,696 career strikeouts are far more than this 1,099 career hits.
Davis has 16 homers in 522 plate appearances. Unfortunately, Davis has contributed next to nothing elsewhere, leading to a miserable .168/.243/.296 batting line.
The next lowest qualified batting average in MLB history is .179, posted by Rob Deer in 1991 and Dan Uggla in 2013.
With the shortened season, no player will have 502 qualified plate appearances, so VanMeter will be a statisical anomaly.

All my posts are my opinion - just like yours are. If I forget to state it and you're too dense to see the obvious, look here!
