No-doubter homer by Phillips. Nice swing.
Brandon tagged the heck out of that one...Reds up 2 - 0
The Reds finally score first. 2-run homer by Phillips. 2-0 Reds.
Snell sucks. Phillips has looked good so far, patience-wise, early on. Prove me wrong Brandon.

WT got it started... whodda thunk it!
Looks like the missed productive out was nullified...
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.
It's only the first but I'm calling this one.
"This isn’t stats vs scouts - this is stats and scouts working together, building an organization that blends the best of both worlds. This is the blueprint for how a baseball organization should be run. And, whether the baseball men of the 20th century like it or not, this is where baseball is going."---Dave Cameron, U.S.S. Mariner
Odds that Harang at least allows the first two hitters on base next inning?

All my posts are my opinion - just like yours are. If I forget to state it and you're too dense to see the obvious, look here!
If Taveras can get the bat on the ball, with his wheels, he ought to be a double and triple machine. I know that's a bit extreme, but if he can do that, he's got some value in the two year deal we gave him. And maybe the ongoing bunt threat gives him some holes. That would be theory, right?
