Matt, you’re reading it wrong… at the top it says “Entering Monday’s action…. 21.2 scoreless.”

Then at the bottom it shows that Hampton threw 0.2 scoreless before allowing a run, thus increasing it to 22.1

Sorry, ignore that. I misread.

Eric,

You have 22.1 in the title but list it as 21.2 in the post.

Shouldn’t it be strung together, after all it’s not like it was:
1. fitted with strings (often used in combination): a five-stringed banjo.
2. produced or sounded by strings: stringed melodies.

I predict the streak ends Tuesday against the Dodgers. They are hitting pretty well right now.

Yeah I read the box score wrong even though I wrote it down correctly. All good now.

The Reds won on Friday night, actually. Oswalt did hold the Reds scoreless, but the Reds’ Ramon Hernandez hit a 2-run homer in the top of the ninth off of a reliever to take the lead, CoCo Cordero saving in the bottom half.

That’s pretty good for the starters, but what have their relieves been doing during that time? The ‘Stros are just 2 and 2 over those games during which the streak ran.

The Pirates also threw 22 scoreless innings from Thursday-Saturday last weekend, shutting the Braves out twice in the process.

Zack Greinke is riding a personal 34 inning scoreless streak dating back to last season.
