Casey flies out on the first pitch. 2-1 Astros, Mid. 6th.
Dunn is still on pace to become the first Reds player to ever have consecutive seasons of 100+ runs, 100+ walks and 100+ runs batted in.
Dunn currently has 92 runs, 92 walks and 87 RBI. On pace for 112 runs, 112 walks and 106 RBI.
By the way, Dunn is only on pace for 161 strikeouts this year, 34 less than last season. Yet his batting average, slugging and OPS is slightly lower than 2004. I thought if Dunn cut down on strikeouts his batting average would go up?
But seriously...I think Dunn will hit for a higher average next season, and as a result, his OBP and SLG will rise. I wouldn't be surprised to see him OPS over 1.000 next season.

He has also now gone 30+ PA without a strikeout. I didnt check, but that has to be a record for him.Originally Posted by OnBaseMachine
