Greg Maddux’s almost beyond belief 1995 season replay continues. He shutout the Cincinnati Reds, 8-0, on a one hitter. This is the second time this year that Greg has pitched three consecutive shutouts. He now has twelve total on the season. He is riding a 29-inning scoreless streak, and his ERA is a microscopic, 0.94. Oh, and he had a season high 13 strikeouts in this game.
Run support was certainly not a problem. Dave Justice belted a pair of homeruns and Fred McGriff added another, in a fourteen-hit offensive onslaught. Maddux is now two games ahead in the win column and one ahead in the lost column, as compared to his real-life season, to this point.
