[redsfan_12]

eckstein flies out to Bruce

unbelieveable

[redsfan_12]

Do we ever score first?

[GIDP]

Reds do a great job of turning great hitters into unstoppable forces.

[redsfan_12]

Strike out
Foul out to Bruce
Home Run
Single
Strike out

[TheBigLebowski]

Adrian Gonzalez has achieved Pooholes status in that he is simply someone we just can't pitch to.

[redsfan_12]

Shocker..Stubbs swings and missed on a curveball

[GIDP]

Cueto is throwing nothing but strikes. 15 strikes 2 balls so far.

[redsfan_12]

2 quick outs

[redsfan_12]

nice play Janish

[GIDP]

4Ks through 2. Cueto has it going on today. 25 pitches 21 for strikes.

[redsfan_12]

yep. just 1 bad pitch

[redsfan_12]

phillips swung at 6 balls

[redsfan_12]

2 outs

[redsfan_12]

bats are rolling today

[GIDP]

Stepping into a pitch is a great way to up your OBP.

[GIDP]

This Cabrera dude is trying to kill himself or someone else today apparently.

[redsfan_12]

Boy Gonzales just missed that one

[redsfan_12]

Geez Bruce

[TheBigLebowski]

Our hitters just make you want to strike up the band.

[redsfan_12]

Jesus Cueto..How can Stubbs beat out a routine grounder to third? lol

[GIDP]

Jesus Cueto..How can Stubbs beat out a routine grounder to third? lol

Because hes really really fast.

[redsfan_12]

but still..how many times does that happen?

[redsfan_12]

Gomes is a terrible outfielder

[goreds2]

Jesus Cueto..How can Stubbs beat out a routine grounder to third? lol

Cueto will learn from the mistake. He is a pitcher.
For those who do not have the broadcast, Cueto was on 1st when Stubbs hit the ground ball. He thought Stubbs was thrown out to end the inning and casually rounded second and got tagged out.

[redsfan_12]

Do we ever get any dang calls? Goodness gracious

[redsfan_12]

XMO looked like he was out there

[redsfan_12]

This ones over folks..3-0

[1990REDS]

here we go. let the runs begin

[GIDP]

Why does it seem like the Reds consistently get beat by stupid things like this. It seems other teams capitalize on everything.

[redsfan_12]

I dont even know why I get so frustrated. We are awful. It should be a given.

[redsfan_12]

Thank you Torrealba

[1990REDS]

got outta that without to much damage

[1990REDS]

good teams take advantage of other teams mistakes. bad teams dont

[1990REDS]

can someone please hit the ball hard

[redsfan_12]

I have never seen a pitcher throw fastballs right down the pike, and guys just hit bloops and lazy fy balls..until now....

[redsfan_12]

Phillips picked off. that did it right there. Im done with this garbage.

[1990REDS]

phillips trys to get a good jump with his hands on his knees, of course it doesnt work

[1990REDS]

Phillips picked off. that did it right there. Im done with this garbage.

ya the drafts on i think ill watch that instead

[redsfan_12]

Id rather watch two pigs play chess than watch these guys. Everything is just half-assed

[redsfan_12]

a 1-2-3 inning. Thats a rareity these days haha

[redsfan_12]

Bruce..lyin in the weeds

[redsfan_12]

Unbelieveable..Gomes picked off again. 4 base runners today. 3 times, they have been picked off/ throw out

[TheBigLebowski]

This is the worst Reds team I can remember. They're literally bad at everything.

Correia carried a no-no into the 6th last night and Frenchie's done essentially the same thing today - we don't have a legit hit yet.

[Jack Burton]

Great fundamentally sound team, we play good ball. Win or lose you can always count on us playing mistake free baseball, we're not in the business of giving away games.

[texasdave]

Boneheaded team lacking severely in the fundamentals. Doesn't that have to fall back on the manager? Three more hits - sweet. Dusty may be a great player's manager; but I am thinking this team needs a kick in the rear. They don't have the best talent in the league, but they should be playing better than this. Buh-bye, Dusty. Go unclog some bases somewhere else.

[FlyerFanatic]

seriously, something has to be done. start benching players, start bringing up some guys, fire jacoby, baker, whoever. DO SOMETHING to send a message, this team is awful to watch. college teams play more sound ball.

I am usually a "Let's wait until mid-May" kind of guy but I do think this does fall on the Manager. Maybe he does need to go. If not, I hope Dusty proves us wrong. Remember what happened after Clint Hurdle was fired from the Rockies last year?

That's what I'm saying, let's get this bum outta here and get someone in who could turn this around.
