Reds at Rockies 3-14-11
 

Stubbs CF
Phillips 2B
Votto DH
Rolen 3B
Bruce RF
Gomes LF
Hernandez C
Alonso 1B
Janish SS

Roenicke P

Pretty close to what I think will be the opening day lineup. Just dump Yonder for the pitcher, swap Janish to the 8 hole.

Chacin going for the Rocks.


Unfortunately...no WLW today. At least not that I can see.

Reineke is done. Billy Bray on the hill for the 3rd.

Seth Smith singles to center. Pacheco scores. *sigh*
Smith caught stealing.
Tulo walks.

Re: Reds at Rockies 3-14-11
 

Sorry guys. Real life calls.

Re: Reds at Rockies 3-14-11
 

9th inning, Hermida singles to lead off, Heisey doubles him in to tie the game.

Unfortunately, DRH came in (after Chapman) and allowed a single, a sac bunt (by Willy T of all people) and a run scoring single to win it.

3-2 loss. Other than Bray & Hererra, pretty good pitching performance from Reineke, Chapman & Masset.
