Great to see a starter who understands that pitch to contact. Limiting pitches. It’s still an option. You can’t just rely on your bullpen.

On this date 131 years ago today... June 2, 1891 , Cincinnati Reds pitcher Charley "Old Hoss" Radbourne(one of my favorite characters of the game and one of the best pitchers of his day) won his 300th career game with a 10-8 complete game victory over the Boston Beaneaters at South End Grounds in Boston. He became only the fifth member of the 300 win club in baseball history. My man completed 488 of his 502 career starts( 97.2%) Old Hoss won his 310 career games over a span of just eleven seasons.
Cy Young won his 300th game 10 years later in 1901.
WOW
Well, that's what those words mean. He was here. If they don't keep him, he will have been lost/subtracted. I headed out the door today with two shoes on my feet. If I don't return with them, I have lost them. If I do return with them, I haven't added them. ---M2
Nice way to get out of that jam. 70 pitches through five.

This ump's strike zone is getting much larger for the Nats pitcher this inning. Wow.

The Reds have wasted too many opportunities at the plate.
Ashcraft looking ace-like out there mowing down the Nats just like he did the Giants.
Oh hum, another 1-2-3 inning. 78 pitches through six. Nats haven't scored in 27 innings.

Where’s the on line application for the Ashcraft fan club?
This is just no nonsense quality pitching.
