The "ace" walks the washed up Posada. One on, one out for Nunez.

Haha this is a joke right? I love how Leaker is pitching right now, but the ace is pitching tonight.

Nope, just following gamecast.

Nunez lines out to Phillips. Two outs, one on for Pena.

He certainly seems to have shoplifted your heart but don't ya think your one sentence proclamations of affection posted constantly without any prodding are starting to become a little too repetitive?

Leake hits Pena in an 0-2 count. Fail.

Leake just got a called first strike on Cervelli that looked a good six inches off the plate on gamecast.

I feel that it is appropriate when the said proclamations are about the pitcher that is currently doing his work on the mound. And while others mock, like you just did, he continues to go out and get the job done. This time against one of the best offenses in baseball.

IT'S THE SECOND INNING.

Get off the hyperbole train.

Leake has 35 pitches through two.

If the Reds can't beat the Yanks in this first game they might as well not show up tonight. That is as weak a lineup as they can have. Giardi really threw his B team in there in this game.

Gentlemen, let's settle down and hope the Reds can string a few hits together so people are a little less on edge.

He's pitching to a lineup without ARod and Texiera. He better mow these guys down without those two in the lineup.

By the way, Leake struck out Cervelli on a full count to end the inning. Stubbs, Renteria and Hanny due to bat in the home half of the second.
