What BBN said about it

Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorAaron Ashby of the Brewers has thrown fourteen scoreless innings this postseason, and he is one out short of Goose Gossage's playoff record for a reliever.

Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentGossage's number is fourteen and one-third, set in nineteen eighty-one. So one out. That's the whole gap.

Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorLook, here's the part I love. Six and two-thirds of Gossage's innings came against Milwaukee in the division series.

Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorThe Brewers are about to take the record back from the guy who took it off them.

Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentForty-five years. That's a long time to hold onto an inning.

Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorI'm telling you, I respect a grudge. Seven of Milwaukee's nine playoff games, zero runs allowed.

Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorEvery tied game, every one-run game. At this point the manager just writes his name in pen.

Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentZero in seven appearances, yes. After a regular season of thirteen and three with a three point one two ERA.

Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorNow to college football. Pitt at Miami, Indiana at Michigan, LSU at Auburn, all at noon Eastern, nine Pacific.

Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorBYU at UCF is three-thirty Eastern, twelve-thirty Pacific.

Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentRating on the record chase: strong. One out, then it's his.

Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentThough Andrew Miller threw sixteen scoreless in twenty sixteen. Ashby's revenge has a ceiling, and it's two innings higher.
