Man, where is that situational hitting when we need it?

Here's to another record-breaking season from Adam Dunn...another 40 homeruns (all coming with nothing on the line) and 200 Ks! We Want King Jay!!
Now it's 15-8. Tigers get a two-point conversion to go with their second TD.
Sounds like Weathers was indeed the prime culprit.

Tigers 17, Reds (ss) 10
at Sarasota, Fla.
Friday, March 3
Reds at the plate: In his spring debut at his new position, first baseman Adam Dunn went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run to right-center field in the first inning. Dunn added a one-out double in the fifth. Rich Aurilia added a one-out RBI single in the third inning. Ray Olmedo hit a two-run single during a four-run sixth inning.
Tigers at the plate: Chris Shelton was 2-for-4 and drove in two first-inning runs with a double to left field. Shelton added a solo home run to right field in the fourth. Part of a six-run third inning, Carlos Guillen smoked a three-run triple to right field. Guillen and Magglio Ordonez are getting in all the game action they can before leaving Sunday to play for Venezuela in the World Baseball Classic.
Reds on the mound: Battling for a spot in the rotation, starter Justin Germano gave up two runs and four hits over two innings. Germano walked one and struck out two. David Weathers (0-1) had a bumpy one inning, giving up six runs (three earned) on five hits with a hit batter. Seeking a spot on the roster, Luke Hudson gave up a run and a hit on Shelton's homer and walked three batters in two innings.
Tigers on the mound: Left-handed veteran Mike Maroth also gave up two runs and four hits over two innings of work. Maroth did not walk anyone and struck out one. It was a rougher afternoon for Justin Verlander (1-0), who is vying for the fifth spot in Detroit's rotation. Verlander gave up two runs on four hits, but threw two wild pitches that scored a run in the third inning and hit a batter in the fourth.
Grapefruit League records: Reds 0-2; Tigers 2-0.
Up next: On Saturday, Cincinnati heads to Tampa to play the Yankees while Detroit travels to Winter Haven to play AL Central and Polk County spring rival, the Indians.
Encouraging stuff from the game:
Germano 4 ground outs vs. 0 flyouts..... huge in our ballpark (2 SO, 1 BB)
Dunn: 6 TB, 2 run HR and a double.... he hasn't cooled off...
Not so good:
Zero BBs by the team... what gives?
Chick: 36.00 ERA.... hmmmm
Hudson: 3 BB in 2 innings.... he's still struggling
Womack: Error and a GIDP.... but he knows how to play the game...
No hits by Kearns in 3 tries...
Why didn't Pena play?
He's off to the World Baseball Classic.Why didn't Pena play?
I thought he was skipping that...
(along with FeLo)
Ah.... for some reason I thought he was gonna be smart like Dunn and actually get some reps on defense at a position he is weak at defensively
Hey! Adam has a .667 average!

You can tell on a SS day in RedsZone which team won due to the length of the game thread.
Some people play baseball. Baseball plays Jay Bruce.
Well, and also which game you could actually listen to.
And, tb, sorry, long day at work and I need to go drink a beer and stop being touchy.
