Reds being way too aggressive at the plate. Liriano getting then to swing at everything out od the zone.
"In our sundown perambulations of late, through the outer parts of Brooklyn, we have observed several parties of youngsters playing 'base', a certain game of ball. Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our close rooms, the game of ball is glorious"
-Walt Whitman
Unless I am reading incorrectly, always a possibility, lefties are hitting Liriano this year to the tune of a .319 OPS. OPS+ against lefties is, well, 0.
So it might behoove the Reds righty hitters to have a good night. Phillips and Ludwick with a good start but all of them might want to help out in this one.
The Reds need this game BADLY. They don't want to be in the position of having to win 2 in a row on Sat & Sun. 2 out of 3 and we're tied for the 1st W/C and going home for the final 6.
WOW! Like I said earlier...the glove is legit!
Say what you will about Frazier's plate approach, dude is an amazing 3B.

1-2-3 for Latos again. Looks to be my kind of game. :O) Pitching and defense.
As long as we are within 1 I feel like the game is tied because I know Hamilton will steal a run late. So hopefully we can tie and he can just go ahead and steal the winning run.
That was a big league play that Frazier made. He came to play.
Jeez, just turned the game on. At that rate, if Latos threw 100 pitches, it was going to be a 100-1 game.
Ok boys, it's baseball. We've played it before. Let's do the good things we can do.
She used to wake me up with coffee ever morning
OK hitters...1 hit every 3 innings isn't going to get it done......Let's go now
Liriano has nasty stuff tonight.

Take some pitches, I'm begging you.
