In the 2018 start for the Indians (Sept. 25 vs. White Sox) he threw 60 pitches, and in the 2019 start as a member of the Reds (Sept. 4 vs. Phillies) he threw 89 pitches. One other bit of hope is Bauer has been slightly better on the road this year than at Great American Ballpark. The biggest difference is that he's given up more home runs at home (6 HR over 96 plate appearances) versus on the road (3 HR over 153 plate appearances). By the way, all three of his road home runs were given up to the Brewers this year.
