Somebody Get This Guy Some Run Support

Losing is way cooler than quitting.
Greg Maddux is going through withdrawal.

The San Diego Padres 350-game winner, who hasn’t tasted sweet, sweet victory since May 10th -- that's 14 starts -- had another letdown on Wednesday, watching his lead disappear just one pitch after his exit.

The culprits: Edwin Encarnacion hit a two-run homer off Cla Meredith to give the Cincinnati Reds the lead before Adam Dunn rubbed it in with a grand slam for a 9-5 victory over the Padres.
"I appreciate the fact that I’m still playing," said Maddux, 42.
Well, maybe you need to aim a bit higher, Mad Dog.

He’s now 0-5 with nine no-decisions and a 4.54 ERA since his last win.

All the Randy Wolfs in the world won't make this team any better.

All the run support in the world doesn't change the fact that Greg Maddux is 42 years old, either.

GO PADS!
