Will the Dodgers Ever Score Again?
The Los Angeles Dodgers suffered their third shutout in a row tonight. The team last scored in the 8th inning on Saturday, making their streak of scoreless innings 28. The pitching staff only gave up eight runs in the three games, so all were very winnable, but a pitching staff can't win a game by itself.
Harang continued his great season, upping his record to 11-3. He struck out eight and allowed just four hits over eight innings. The worst he did was give up two hits in one inning. He's cut down on his home runs quite a big this season.
Harang got robbed of the Cy Young award last year and he should have been an All-Star this year. It a shame the Reds are such a crappy team or he would actually get recognized as one of the best pitchers in the game today. Which he most definitely is.
Yep. Mad props for the 10-inning performance last month, too.
Anybody else notice that he kinda looks like Andre the Giant?
