250 Victories for Baltimore's Matt Kilroy
His goal at twenty was to win twenty games one year, pitch until he was thirty, win the league pennant and to make some money. Well, Matt Kilroy did something even better -- the 31-year-old Baltimore Orioles star has now won 250 games in his career. That put him in a very select group of pitchers.

He joined that exclusive club today at Congress Street Grounds by whipping the Boston Reds 6-2, holding them to 9 hits in 9 innings while chalking up 6 strikeouts and 3 walks.

In the postgame interview, the modest Kilroy said, "It's special to win 250 games. You don't do it by yourself. You do it with good stuff and a good bullpen. You are only as good as the guys behind you. Years from now I might look back on it and give myself a little pat on the back."

In his career Kilroy has 250 victories and 228 defeats with a 3.80 ERA.
