6/3/14 - Reds vs. Gigantes

[_Sir_Charles_]

Today's throw from Bruce, not the first time that's happened. Didn't a bog game end last year on a dropped ball by Mesoraco? A few lazy passed balls in the Dodger series. Just off the top of my head.

Poor choice IMO. Tough play for ANY catcher.

I don't agree with their assessment, but I will say that when there are not runners on, Devin will get lazy back there and begin stabbing at the ball instead of moving his feet properly and you'll quite often see him completely whiff on some pitches. This is part of what I'm talking about him cleaning up his technique. When it matters, he's quite good at his craft, but he gets sloppy too often for my tastes. Bad habits will work their way into moments that matter.

Yeah, i know what ur talking about, but that's a lot of catchers with nobody on.

Ground ball through the wickets of Posey. Lol

Of course now the Reds can't touch Lincecum.

I guess they're spent after the 1st inning........haven't we seen this before?

That's a good excuse in little league. In the majors, starters make tough plays.

Wow Ump...

Thanks for the examples...

True....but I still don't like it.

He could also improve his framing techniques and also his form on setting a proper target early for the pitcher. Nothing major, but little things that could move his defense from average to WELL ABOVE average. He's a good solid defensive catcher right now. Always room for improvement....and I'm picky when it comes to defense (and catchers).

Cozart just a little out front on that foul ball.

And now he K's. Just a bad hitter.

To Lincecum's credit, he's pounded the bottom of the zone and seems to be getting a lot more movement from his pitches. That sequence to Cozart was pretty impressive.

Yup....Redszone blamed it on Dusty Baker!

The role of Jim Edmonds will be played by Angel Pegan tonight.

[_Sir_Charles_]

What the heck was THAT. No reason for that freaking slide Mr. Edmonds.

[50YrRedsFan]

Scoring chance wasted........I feel this game slipping away

:O) Thinking alike it seems.
