Re: Reds vs. Pirates Tuesday 6/5
I've never seen so many horrible AB's in a Reds game before tonight. Just FLAT PATHETIC!

Wrong on all accounts. Bailey had shoulder tightness. Clearly. No debate. He couldn't get loose and that is why he was pulled. Considering the almost week layoff and cool night, little surprise.
The Reds offense was its usual self. Sometimes teams get lucky. The Pirates had theirs.

Let's just assume it was the cool weather and he couldn't get loose. Doesn't bode well for pitching in night games in October, does it?

Depends. He would have 200 innings under his belt then and a period of power pitching. He did ok during points in 2009-11, but the earlier parts of the season were problemsome.
