Road Warrior

Aaron Harang shutout the Cleveland Indians last night 3-0. That lowered his road ERA to 1.57, the lowest in the majors by over half a run. Harang might be getting Cy Young consideration if he didn't pitch in Cincinnati. The band box ballpark he calls home raises his ERA to 6.00. He's allowed 10 home runs this season, nine at Great American Ballpark. His strikeouts are great, his walks are great, it's just a tough park for pitchers putting his ERA into the threes. I hope voters at least take a look at this factor when they vote come fall.


(By the way, I love the picture of Harang and LaRue slow dancing after the win at the first link. :-))

The Reds said thank you very much as Wedge sat down Broussard for his defensive lapses, especially the embarrassment in the previous game. Unfortunately for the Indians, Broussard is one of their very best hitters, with the third highest OPS on team behind only Hafner and part-timer Perez.

Broussard is back in the game today. I guess Wedge figured he had made his point.
