The Cincinnati Reds had to wonder whether major league hitters had solved the Garrett puzzle when he suddenly allowed 10 runs in his fourth start of the season to the Milwaukee Brewers. The Reds have had trouble stopping with the Brewers offense all season long, so Garrett having trouble wasn’t too shocking. What was shocking was how bad the outing was against the Brew Crew.
Garrett has given up 6 home runs all season long. Three of them were in his April 24 start at Milwaukee. In that start he allowed 10 of the 16 runs that he allowed in his first five starts of his MLB career.
