Baseball Boom's Big Winners, Big Losers for May 7th

bovandy posted 5/8/2008 from www.baseballboom.com

Big Winners: Edinson Volquez, Joey Votto, and the Cincinnati Reds: Votto had his best game as a major leaguer after belting 3 of the Reds 7 homeruns against the Cubs, and Volquez improved to 5-1 with a miniscule 1.06 ERA, and leads all of baseball with 52 strikeouts. Dusty Baker could also be called a big winner as his club took 2 of 3 from the team that most recently fired him.......
