They have not crossed paths in a posted game this season, so the first box score between them is still to be written.

Pete Roses sit at 4-2. They have scored 132 runs while allowing 76, so they have outscored opponents on the year. Collectively they are swinging 0.536 on the year. Across their last five games with a final score, they are 4 wins and 1 losses. They lost their last finished game. In the NL, Pete Roses sit 3rd at 2.0 games back.

Randy Johnsons carry 0-6. They are underwater on the run chart—116 allowed next to 64 driven in. Their posted team clip sits at 0.441. In five-score games going back from today, they are 0 wins and 5 losses. They have lost 6 straight finals with a score on the board. Standings-wise, Randy Johnsons are 8th in the NL, 6.0 out of first.

What we expect: Pete Roses have the cleaner season line—wins, run margin, team average, and recent finals all tilt their way. Randy Johnsons can still steal it with a big inning, but Pete Roses look like the steadier bet to control the pace.

Not a real line; just a fan read.
