Tony, I love your work..... Proofreading is your friend !!! :wink:

Hell.... I had kids older than you before Wrigley had lights !!

FYI here are Reed's HR and their situation: 7th inning: 2 R HR off Juan Cruz to tie the game against the DBacks on May 11th 5th inning: 3 run HR of Sean Burnett in a already blowout game on May 23 2nd inning: 3 run HR of Doc Halladay to put the Cubs up 4-0 on June 14th. 8th inning: Grand slam off Rosales that provided the margain of victory against the D'backs on July 23. 5th inning: solo shot off Josh Johnson that temp gave the Cubs the 2-1 lead against the Marlins on July 25th. 8th inning: 2 run (and I believe the OFFICIAL GW HR) HR off Sean Burnett in the 8th on August 3. All but one of his homeruns were either to tie up the game, give the Cubs the lead/add on to the lead or eventually won the game for the Cubs. So when Reed hits a homerun its' a "CLUTCH" homerun. I dunno if I would use the word CLUTCH to describe a HR that later turns out to be the game winner. Reed can't see into the future. Actually.... the case can be made that Reed Johnson is our most clutch hitter this year........ Percentage of baserunners driven in........ 03/31 - 08/03 BDI LOB RBI% Johnson 34 90 0.274 Edmonds 24 71 0.253 E Patterson 6 19 0.240 Soriano 29 92 0.240 Ramirez 54 172 0.239 D Lee 51 197 0.206 Fontenot 22 90 0.196 Cedeno 20 83 0.194 DeRosa 44 185 0.192 Soto 45 199 0.184 Murton 6 29 0.171 Theriot 29 145 0.167 Fukudome 32 161 0.166 Ward 7 40 0.149 Pie 6 44 0.120 Hoffpauir 1 9 0.100 Blanco 4 47 0.078 CUBS 430 1803 0.193
