    Cincinnati Reds Press Clippings February 12, 2019 THIS DAY IN REDS HISTORY 1888-The Reds begin a six-week exhibition tour through Texas, Louisiana and Alabama MLB.COM Duke returns to Reds on one-year deal Cincy designates right-hander Lopez for assignment in corresponding move By Mark Sheldon MLB.com @m_sheldon Feb. 11th, 2019 GOODYEAR, Ariz. -- This past offseason featured multiple trades by the Reds, but Monday officially marked their first free-agent acquisition, when lefty reliever Zach Duke signed a one-year, $2 million contract. To make room for Duke, right-handed pitcher Jose Lopez was designated for assignment. Duke, who will turn 36 in April, agreed to terms with Cincinnati on Feb. 2. The club will get added veteran presence in its bullpen. He is a 14-year Major League veteran. In 72 games combined for the Twins and Mariners last season, Duke was 5-5 with a 4.15 ERA and 1.50 WHIP. Over 52 innings, he allowed 57 hits including one home run with 21 walks and 51 strikeouts. Left-handed hitters batted .220 against him, compared to .311 by right-handed hitters. But the Reds do not view the ground-ball pitcher as a one-out left-handed situational reliever. "He's a guy that likes to pitch a full inning and expects to be in there to pitch a full inning," Reds president of baseball operations Dick Williams said. "He's had a lot of success against lefties, but we are comfortable that he's not necessarily going to be a one-out guy." Duke is returning to the Reds after pitching for them during the 2013 season, a stint that helped turn his career around after being released by the Nationals earlier that year.

  • 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.

  • Padding the Stats: a Study of MLB Player Performance in Meaningless Game- Situations
    Padding the Stats: A Study of MLB Player Performance in Meaningless Game- Situations Evan Hsia1, Jaewon Lee2 and Anton T. Dahbura3 Department of Computer Science Johns Hopkins University Abstract This paper presents the concept of Meaningless Game-Situations (MGS) in Major League Baseball (MLB), defined as situations in which a team has a 95% chance or greater of winning the game given the score at that particular inning in the game. 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.

  • Weekly Notes 082417
    MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL WEEKLY NOTES THURSDAY, AUGUST 24, 2017 NATIONAL TREASURE With a victory on Sunday at San Diego, Washington Nationals starting pitcher Gio Gonzalez improved to 12-5 on the season with a 2.39 ERA. The 31-year-old left-hander has won each of his last four starts, permitting just one earned run over 27.2 innings pitched (0.33 ERA). According to Elias, the only other pitchers in Expos/Nationals history to post an ERA below 0.50 over four straight starts within one season (all wins), are Charlie Lea (0.28 in 1981), Hall of Famer Pedro Martinez (0.30 in 1997) and Javier Vazquez (0.28 in 2001). With his next start, Gio will attempt to become the fourth pitcher in Montreal/Washington franchise history to pick up a victory while tossing at least 6.0 innings and allowing one earned run or less in fi ve consecutive starts, and just the second to do so in a single season. Jordan Zimmermann accomplished the feat in six consecutive starts in 2012, while Martinez did so in six straight starts across the 1996-97 seasons. Gonzalez’ teammate Joe Ross compiled a streak of fi ve such starts between 2015-16. The two-time All-Star has now pitched into the sixth inning in 19 consecutive starts, and he has lasted at least 5.0 innings in 25 straight outings. Steve Rogers holds the all-time franchise mark of 62 straight starts of at least 5.0 innings pitched from May 22, 1977 - April 15, 1979.

This is the first time the Hall of Fame honors four men representing the same baseball club, in the same year MLB.COM Reds fall as Harvey allows 8 runs in short outing Pirates' homers are first allowed by right-hander since June 8 By Mark Sheldon MLB.com @m_sheldon CINCINNATI -- The non-waiver Trade Deadline is July 31, which means that Matt Harvey could get one more start before the Reds decide whether or not they want to move him. But if scouts put too much stock in Harvey's disastrous performance on Sunday vs. the Pirates, the phone of baseball operations president Dick Williams might not ring as much. Overall, Harvey has been a success story since his May 8 acquisition from the Mets, but that was certainly not the case during a 9-2 Reds loss to Pittsburgh at Great American Ball Park. He turned in the worst start of his brief tenure in Cincinnati with eight earned runs and eight hits -- including a career-high four home runs -- over 3 2/3 innings. The biggest issue? Harvey was unable to locate any of his pitches effectively. "I tried to go in, and it'd go back over the plate. I tried to go away to a righty, and it was tailing down the middle," said Harvey, who had zero walks and two strikeouts.
