Allowing 4+ runs

Early this morning, the County Clerk did some checking and found that when allowing 4+ runs the Astros are 5-46. This seems awfully low. So let's look and see just how bad it is across the NL.

Team	Overall Rec.	Allowing 4+ R
COL	39-40	18-28
ARI	44-37	17-33
NYM	40-39	14-33
PHI	50-30	13-21
CIN	41-40	13-30
SFG	46-34	12-22
WSH	40-40	12-27
MIL	44-36	12-28
FLA	34-45	12-32
STL	42-38	11-33
CHC	32-48	11-42
PIT	40-38	10-30
SDP	36-45	9-28
ATL	46-35	8-28
LAD	36-45	8-35
HOU	28-52	5-46

A few things to note about this.

1) Of course this means that the Astros' offense struggles to score 4+ runs. In their 80 games, the Astros have scored 4+ runs in just 43 of them - and are 21-22 when they actually do.

2) Only the Cubs have played more games where they have allowed 4+ runs, with 53 to the Astros' 51. But they've at least won 11 of those games.

3) As a whole, the National League is 185-496 when allowing their opponents to score 4+ runs for a .272 Win%. Taking the Astros out of the equation, that bumps up the NL Win% to .286, because the Astros bring that down with their .098 Win%.
