Has there ever been a pitcher who completely pwned a team as much as Roy Oswalt pwns the Reds? I mean, it’s gone past coincidence to just bizarre. Oswalt now holds a record of 22-1 against Cincinnati. That’s. Just. Crazy.
The Reds did score a run in the first, and Josh Fogg pitched well, for a change, but the outcome of the game was never in doubt.
For a minute there, I thought that RoyO referred to Arroyo. But then I realized you were talking about a decent pitcher. 😀
I can just see the Reds acquiring Oswalt in a few years, once he’s no longer very effective and in the tail end of his career. The justification will be, “He’s always pitched well against us.”
Maybe then Arroyo and Roy O. can be on the same team.
