Aug 28, 2007 - 1:00 PM Cincinnati at Pittsburgh 8:35 pm EDTPITTSBURGH (Ticker) -- Once in danger of becoming the National League's first pitcher to lose 15 games, Paul Maholm will target his fourth straight win in the nightcap of their doubleheader with the Cincinnati Reds.
Maholm (10-14, 4.39 ERA) has went at least seven frames in each of his last three outings, including his second complete career complete game on August 13 vs. San Francisco.
In his last win - a 5-1 victory over Colorado on Thursday - the lefthander allowed one run and seven hits over seven innings to pick up double-digit wins for the first time in his career.
Maholm is 2-3 with a 5.13 ERA in nine career starts against Cincinnati.
The Reds will counter with Bronson Arroyo (7-13, 4.55), who will be seeking his third straight win. He gave up two runs and six hits over 5 1/3 innings in a 4-2 win over Atlanta in his last outing.
In four lifetime starts against the Pirates, the righthander is 1-3 with a 5.40 ERA.
