Past results don't predict future HBPs

Biggio successfully defended himself against 11 Greg Maddux pitches, and fought off one from Michael Wuertz to emerge unscathed from last night's game.
Tonight's starting nemesis is 3 time offender Kerry Wood who has more career hit batsmen than wins. Wood hit Biggio at Wrigley on
5/6/1998, and 9/29/2001, and got him right in the Enron Field on 5/25/02.
Craig Biggio has been hit twice on April 30th, in 1995 by Juan Acevedo, and 1997 by Dave Veres.

135 of Biggio's 259 HBPs have occurred at home.


Have I mentioned how much I love retrosheet.org?
