  • Mets Pound Braves Brewers Roll
    SPORTS SATURDAY, APRIL 25, 2015 Mets pound Braves Brewers roll NEW YORK: Daniel Murphy drove in four runs as the New York Mets matched a club record with their 11th straight victory Thursday, walking their way to a 6-3 win over the Atlanta Braves behind Bartolo Colon. With the top record in the majors despite injuries to several critical players, the Mets finished their first homestand 10-0 after sweeping a trio of NL East rivals. This is the fifth time the Mets have won 11 games in a row, and the first since 1990. Colon (4-0) allowed three runs over six innings to win his first four starts for the first time in his big league career. Julio Teheran (2-1) walked three of his first four batters, and Murphy hit a bases-clearing double to right field. BREWERS 4, REDS 2 Kyle Lohse (1-3) allowed two runs and three hits in seven innings, lowering his ERA from 10.34 to 7.94, and Milwaukee (3-13) stopped an eight- game losing streak Closer Francisco Rodriguez pumped his right arm and yelled after recording the final out for his sixth save. Jean Segura drove in the go-ahead run with a two-out single in the seventh off Kevin Gregg (0- 2), and center fielder Billy Hamilton’s throw home was up the third-base line, allowing Logan Schafer to score. YANKEES 2, TIGERS 1 Jacoby Ellsbury hit a leadoff double in the eighth off Tom Gorzelanny (0-1), took third on Brett Gardner’s sacrifice bunt and scored the tiebreaking run on Brian McCann’s groundout.

We determine the run differentials for each inning that yield a 95% chance or greater of winning the game based on 2013-2016 MLB statistics and look at individual batter performances under MGS. We argue that including a split for MGS in major baseball statistical references should be considered. I. Introduction Hope springs eternal, especially in the game of baseball. But should it? Perhaps the absence of a game clock in baseball, unlike other major sports, creates the illusion that anything is possible, and in particular that one’s team can overcome even the largest of deficits, even late in the game. And, indeed, significant comebacks from behind are possible, but are so unlikely that in some cases they’re considered to be historic. For instance, in the game between the Pittsburgh Pirates and Philadelphia Phillies on June 8, 1989 the Pirates scored 10 runs in the top of the first inning. The Pirates’ radio broadcaster, Jim Rooker, proclaimed that if the Phillies were to come back from the 10-run deficit he would “walk home”. As fate would have it, the Phillies ended up winning the game 15-11, prompting Mr.
