4.19.12 Day Game Reds @ St. Louis 1:45 ET start

Glad for the afternoon start. Gets my frustration over another lose out if the way early, and I can focus on other things the rest of the day. ;)

Infield hit for Stubbs. See Drew put the bat on the ball and good things will happen.

I'm still a big Stubbs fan (maybe the only one left around here?) but I don't think he's squared a ball up yet this season. Seems like every hit he does have has been an infield hit.

Matt Carpenter is looking like Lou Gehrig Jr. right now so they might put up a 9 spot, who knows.

Votto grounds out and Stubbs moves up a base.

Okay Brandon time to get one of those key hits.

FSN just caught Votto letting one FLY. That was a loud f-bomb

Phillips Flies out to end the first.

Nice at bat there by Phillips to drive up the pitch count early.

So he hasn't learned the Spanish version of that one yet, eh?

Ha, exactly what I was thinking!

Typical first inning. only an infield hit to show. Either St. Louis and Washington have staffs of Cy Youngs or even Sandy Koufaxes or our guys are simply horrible. Of course, Wainwright came in with an ERA of 11.00.

Wainwright's pitch count is already at 21 and he doesn't look anything like the pitcher he was in the past. He'll probably still shutout the Reds, but it won't look that pretty. lol

Here we go again. Bloop single for Furcal.

4-6-3 Yessireeee.
