I'm not crazy about it either, but at least Dusty isn't giving up. That's something.

I think Sam Lecure's twitter account should call the meeting

Double into the LC gap. 5-0 Oakland. Not a bad pitch really. Low in the zone but caught a bit too much of the plate.
Simon warming.

Cingrani gives up a run -- has he thrown anything except fastballs?

I think you give too much credit to the opposing pitcher. Our hitting is bad, and no signs of getting better.
Re: 6/26/13 - Reds @ Athletics
cingrani STILL believes he can get everybody out with one pitch.
Re: 6/26/13 - Reds @ Athletics
Just something about the mindset of this team. They don't seem to respond to the challenge. There are injuries and deficiencies, but the team seems dead out there.
I mean, how can this team be whitewashed by this Griffin guy? And last night constantly leaving bases loaded, two men on.
Reds just seem to be a limited team. They can win on the backs of great starting pitching, but that's it.

I've seen a couple sliders. 2 or 3 I think.
Re: 6/26/13 - Reds @ Athletics
Prepare for the 7 game deficit after this road trip is over. I never would have guessed it.

I did say we showed little patience or adjusting -- but I will say their pitcher has got the job done
he's at 87 pitches thru 7
Re: 6/26/13 - Reds @ Athletics
Strikeout ends the inning. Cingrani got him on a curve.
Yes, a curve.

missed them
Re: 6/26/13 - Reds @ Athletics
Pretty slider there for the K. But one more comes across to make it 5-0 Oakland.
Time to light a fire under this team Dusty. Let's go boys!!!
~edit~ D'oh. CLEARLY a curveball. Just got in the slider mindset I guess.
Re: 6/26/13 - Reds @ Athletics
LOL, with the Reds losing all these games, Cingrani still is able to work on those secondary pitches. See, it all worked out fine.
Re: 6/26/13 - Reds @ Athletics
I was at the Saturday and Sunday games in AZ and saw Bob Castellini there. He has a home in AZ. I hope he is on this trip to Oak and Tex and sees we need offensive and bullpen help.
