You might want to watch a replay Raisor. It was closer than you think. Yes the throw beat him, but it was by a step...maybe a step and a half. Add in a very nice slide and it was close.Originally Posted by Raisor

OK, I MUST be lucky for the Reds today, I'm channel surfing, stop at the game and the 1st pitch I see: BAM!!!
Not really. But we will agree to disagree on this one.

A tremendous Zack Whack!!
Hindsight is 20/20. I like the decision to send Phillips. Gattis has been a butcher in left all series. No way would anyone have anticipated a throw like that.

A country mile or a CinCity mile?
You may say it is semantics, but I don't think it's fair to get a free pass on a statement like that. It was a loaded remark...implying Leake was dumb there. Sorry, but expect pushback on a remark like that.

Just watched the Gattis replay. I woulda sent him too. Gattis just happens to have a cannon. Helluva throw.

Miller also had a long drive last night.
But I think basing decisions on one previous AB vs. a lifetime of information will likely result in lesser results.
Gattis just missed a big fly.

Haha Gattis.
whew... looooong strike
When Phillips was tagged he was on the chalk at the front of the batters box. That's not close in my opinion.Not really. But we will agree to disagree on this one.
Good decision by Leake to keep that one foul.
