    3/8/06 Reds vs the Pirates

    Per Marcs blog...

    SARASOTA -- Yes, the Reds are using the DH. No, the Pirates are not. Don't know why, but I'm honestly not curious enough to ask. Hopefully, we'll all make it through this OK...

    Pirates
    Chris Duffy CF
    Craig Stansberry 2B
    Sean Casey 1B
    Craig Wilson RF
    Joe Randa 3B
    Jose Hernandez SS
    Ray Sadler LF
    Humberto Cota C
    Tom Gorzelanny P

    Reds
    Ryan Freel CF
    Tony Womack 2B
    Felipe Lopez SS
    Adam Dunn 1B
    Austin Kearns RF
    Jason LaRue C
    Jacob Cruz DH
    Quinton McCracken LF
    Derek Wathan 3B
    Michael Gosling P

    Also, on the travel squad (among others) for tomorrow's game against the Pirates: Dunn, Encarnacion, Freel, Lopez, Womack, Rhodes, LaRue, McCracken, Coffey, Burns, Hudson, Kozlowski and Mr. Kent Mercker. Aaron Harang will oppose Ian Snell on the hill.

    "Yes, the Reds are using the DH. No, the Pirates are not. Don't know why, but I'm honestly not curious enough to ask"...

    Apparently Bud has notice the lack of improvement in Milton's pitching, and in the best interest of baseball has agreed to allow the reds to us a DH for all home games in an attempt to make the things fair & equitable.

    Not sure if on the radio. If you go to MLB not listed yet, but Pitt has some games on so I'm hopeful.

    Does anybody else hear that noise? It's like static or something....
    Games are won on run differential -- scoring more than your opponent. Runs are runs, scored or prevented they all count the same. Worry about scoring more and allowing fewer, not which positions contribute to which side of the equation or how "consistent" you are at your current level of performance.

    Sorry, nevermind. I figured it out. It was just the sound of Womack sucking.

    Looks like we have to change the title because the SS game vs. the Twins is on MLB radio and Pitt game is not showing up. at least not yet.

    Where is the Twins game listed? I don't see anything at all at MLB.com.

    Are XM subscribers required to pay an additional fee in order to receive MLB audio during the regular season?

    I was trying to figure that out, and just gave up and paid the additional $14.95 for the computer access too.

    I'm thinking of subscribing to XM here soon and I was hoping I'd be able to listen to Reds broadcasts with it. I'll probably get it either way but being able to listen to MLB audio would be a sweet bonus.

    Not to be pushy here, but let's say you don't have XM. Is the game on MLB.com somewhere?

    Both games are listed on the scoreboard. Are you referring to an audio broadcast?
