SAN FRANCISCO – Billy Hamilton scored a run for the 11th consecutive game on Thursday, scoring twice in the Reds’ 3-2 victory.
When that was brought up to Reds manager Bryan Price, his immediate response was to ask about the team’s record in those games. It’s 9-2.
Over those 11 games, Hamilton’s not only scored 16 times, but he’s hitting .347/.407/.571. It’s no secret over the last few years that when Hamilton is getting on base, the Reds are a much more potent offense.
Not just for what he adds to the offense with his base stealing, he can influence pitchers without stealing a base.
