Scoring has been a big part of why Atlanta and Cincinnati are on fire at the moment. The Braves have scored 65 runs during their eight-game win streak, an average of 8.1 runs per game, while the Reds have scored 68 runs during their 11-game win streak, an average of 6.2 runs per game.
For Cincinnati, that scoring has been especially valuable and necessary when Weaver has been on the mound.
Weaver has allowed four or more runs in seven of his 11 starts this season, including four of his five home starts. At home, he has allowed 21 runs and 29 hits in only 26 innings.
Over his last four starts, Weaver has allowed 18 runs (all earned), 28 hits, and eight walks in 19 innings. Yet the Reds are 4-0 in those four games, as they have scored 28 runs to counter the 23 that have been given up.
Last time out, he allowed five runs and ten hits in five innings at Houston last Sunday, but the Reds rallied for a 9-7, 10-inning win to give Weaver his seventh straight no-decision.
Can he continue to play with fire and not get burned? The Reds have allowed four or more runs in nine of his 11 starts and have compiled a 6-3 record in those games, thanks to scoring five or more runs in all six wins.
It’s all a recipe for trouble against Atlanta, however. The Braves have scored four or more runs 53 times in 74 games this season, including every game of their current win streak. They are 44-9 when scoring four or more runs, which includes a 23-3 record when scoring four or more runs on the road
