Harang, Reds aim for third straight win
Apr 7, 2007 - 1:57 PM Pittsburgh (3-1) at Cincinnati (3-1), 1:05 pm EDTCINCINNATI (Ticker) -- Aaron Harang and the Cincinnati Reds are headed in the right direction.
Harang hopes to build off an outstanding season debut and the Reds aim for their third straight win Saturday when they host the Pittsburgh Pirates.
Cincinnati's ace, Harang (1-0, 0.00 ERA) was brilliant in his Opening Day win over the Chicago Cubs, yielding one unearned run in seven strong innings of a 5-1 victory.
The 28-year-old Harang owns a career 8-3 mark with a 4.15 ERA in 13 career starts against the Pirates.
Pittsburgh counters with offseason acquisition Tony Armas, who makes his season debut for his new team. Armas posted a 9-12 mark with a 5.03 ERA last season with the Washington Nationals.
Brandon Phillips homered and Jeff Conine drove in three runs in Cincinnati's 6-1 win over Pittsburgh on Friday.
