Man, nice to have the early lead. But a 3-1 count to Bruce and he hits a week dribbler to first off a junkballer. Pitchers don't fear him at all.

[redsfan_12]

We have a 1st inning leAd? :eek:

[redsfan_12]

Well there goes the lead

[ochoa30]

Cueto held it for all of 3 seconds. Well, it was fun while it lasted I guess.

[arkimadee]

here we go again

[ochoa30]

Man! Bloop single and in RBI, never seems to happen for us but it always seems to happen against us.

[arkimadee]

The bottom line. If Jay Bruce doesn't start hitting, and if we don't get someone in that spot who can hit, we are going to finish this season 20 under .500. He's letting down this team right now and doesn't seem to be getting any better.

same can be said with votto, and really everyone else. no one on this team is hitting outside of rolen. that and the pitching has been sub par too. this year isnt the year, we'll finish at the bottom of the central.

[redsfan_12]

We are terrible :bang:

[ochoa30]

Gomes could have played that homer, that was a putrid effort.

[joshua]

Yeah. That was an entirely catchable ball...it bounced right off the damn wall and he was power walking in that direction with minimum effort. I'd pull his ass out of the game for that

[redsfan_12]

Gomes could have played that homer, that was a putrid effort.

Was thinking the same thing

[redsfan_12]

Votto drives in OCab. 3-2 Bucs

[redsfan_12]

bases chucked. 1 out. Comeon Bruce

[redsfan_12]

There ya go Jay! :clap:

[ochoa30]

There ya go Jay! :clap:

Was hoping for more but right now it's baby steps. We'll take it.

[ochoa30]

Hernandez stinks! Hanigan should get the majority of the playing time.

[FlyerFanatic]

Hernandez stinks! Hanigan should get the majority of the playing time.

agreed

[redsfan_12]

agreed

agreed X2

[redsfan_12]

Carrassco in to pitch

[redsfan_12]

Nice hitting B Phil...3-0 fastball down the middle

[ochoa30]

There was just no way Brandon could walk 3 times in 1 game. Lol. RBI double though, nice!

[ochoa30]

Not cool Phillips. Dudes never really been a good basestealer.

[redsfan_12]

We get caught stealing and picked off more than anyone

[arkimadee]

Paul Keels has a voice that makes me want to doze off with a beer in my hand.

[Zimmers]

This is the 5ht game I have caught this year and I have to say something is missing! There seems to be no emotion and the hitting is woeful. OC arm looks terrible and I am starting to have real fears about Jay Bruce! Anyways glad we are up 4-3 tho! :beerme:

[goreds2]

"Just Win Baby"

Nice job throwing out the Pirate runner on a steal attempt.

[ochoa30]

Ubaldo jimenez just threw a no hitter against the braves. Congrats go him.

[ochoa30]

Cordero walks the bases loaded. Great.

[ochoa30]

Line out to left. 1 to go.

[ochoa30]

Unfreakingbelievable.

[redsfan_12]

My god. :bang:

[ochoa30]

I guess that's why we pay him the big bucks. Oh wait. Wow.

[joshua]

Pathetic. This team isn't for real.

[FlyerFanatic]

reds are gonna get swept by the pirates. this team will be a bottom feeder in the central this year

[ochoa30]

Thank god Houston is terrible. Might keep us out of the cellar for a while.

[mattfeet]

I cannot believe this.....

[foxfire123]

This so completely sucks. Hey mental midget Dusty, if it's obvious that your closer doesn't have it, WHY LEAVE HIM IN THERE???

So much for that little thing called hope.

[joshua]

Houston beat the Cubs. They'll probably sweep us after the Dodgers and Padres get done abusing us.

[ochoa30]

Felipe lopez is better then Cordero...... At pitching. Lol. I guess what they say about Duncan is true.

[foxfire123]

That makes this even harder to stomach Ochoa30. That they can get better results from a middle infielder than we get from what's supposed to be one of the "best in the business" closers.

Hey Cordero, how about giving today's paycheck back?

[goreds2]

Felipe lopez is better then Cordero...... At pitching. Lol. I guess what they say about Duncan is true.

After ONE game, you are going to say that about him?

Kinda just trying to lighten the mood. Obviously I don't think that. It was a rough night, were all dissapointed. It is still early, things will get better.

[Reds42MLB]

Someone blows a save and you guys melt down. 1 baseball game geez, change your tampon.

[foxfire123]

It's not just this one game, for me this was just the capper to this season so far. NONE of these guys are playing up to capability. Are they so used to losing that they don't KNOW how to win?

[redsfan_12]

It's the last 4 games. We are getting worse if you haven't noticed.
