6/21/13 Reds @ D-Backs ("Checking in on some old friends" edition)

Fascinating stat there regarding lack of production against Cueto with bases loaded. 0-20 past two years. Here's hoping the streak continues.

Anyone else have little confidence in the Reds against good teams?

Rats. Well, so long for that streak. Single to bring in two runs and 3-0 Diamondbacks.

Bloomquist singles to right center. 3-0 Dbacks

Just feels like everything is a struggle right now. I wouldn't have much confidence against anyone. Diamondbacks have struggled against good teams too.

Good approach by Bloomquist....hit it hard where it's pitched.

I didn't realize that Zona was that good.

Their approach as a team gets them IMO

Gonna be a lot of wildcard talk after this road trip as this team doesn't win very much against good teams.

Goldschmidt grounds out to short. 3-0 Dbacks

Nearly 50 pitches after 2 innings, hope the Reds bullpen is up to it tonight.

None at all. This could be a rough road trip.

Cueto is not sharp tonight. 48 pitches thru 2 innings, already given up 5 H and 3 ER. Offense is going to have to get it going.

Robinson walks

As a pitcher, how do you walk Robinson. Good eye by the kid, but just throw him 3 fastballs and be done.
