Couldn't make it boring.

That was pretty traumatic for a half inning that resulted in a win

[CubmanPi]

Did Reed Johnson really just push his OPS up to .955?

[OleMissCub]

Win 9 of our last 11 games and we are still just getting to 51 wins. :-(

 

Only 17 games back though! Let's do this!

In 170 PAs while walking 3 times

Does that make it less ridiculous?

[Careless]

No

[Garwilly]

Is that 8 straight K's for Wood?

That's what they said, and I think they said that's the record

Hmm, this says Seaver had 10. Looks like the AL record is 8.

I seem to remember Wood having a similar streak agianst the Braves in 2004. I can't remember how many in a row he had though. Might have only been 6-7
