Three up three down for the A's in the first against Mike Lincoln.
Ben Sheets pitching for the A's.
I cannot do pbp right now, and won't be able to for a bit. Briefly, Dickerson on with a ground rule double on a ball to the track in LF that the A's outfielder misplayed and fell over trying to get to. Cabrera grounded back to mound off of Sheets' glove, bounced away, safe at first. Both players awarded hits.
Votto doubled into the left-center gap to drive home 1. Runners at 2nd and 3rd. Rolen up. Anyone listening on MLB audio that can pick it up, have at it, otherwise all I can really do is give summaries.
Rolen walks to load bases.
Gomes works count full and lines a hit off of Kouzmanoff's glove at 3b, two runs score, gomes to second with a double.
3-0 Reds lead, no outs still, top of first.
Nix singles home two more. 5-0 game, still no outs.
Juan Francisco up.
I can help out but it will be an inning slow, im using mlb pitch by pitch, i dont have mlb radio
Francisco singles, first and second.
Then Miles grounds up middle, but E-4 on Mark Ellis, negating a potential double play. Run scores, 6-0.
Then Wilkin Castillo doubles up the gap, 8-0 Reds lead. Still no one out.
Chris Dickerson back up for second time.
ouch ouch ouch.
I'm sure Ben Sheets is better than this, but ouch.
MLB.com's scoreboard has Francisco listed as DH. I thought he was playing LF?
Dubito Ergo Cogito Ergo Sum.
Dickerson homers. 10-0 Reds. Still no outs.
A's announcers are laughing over the absurdity. "Seen any good movies lately?" Kinda funny.
Sheets is done for the day. I guess he "got his work in".
A Hernandez of some sort or another in to pick up the pieces.
Cabrera grounds out to SS to a rousing sarcastic cheer from the throng.
Remember when Dickerson said "Guess I'll have to hit .450 this spring"?
Well, he's over .300 now. with power.
Dubito Ergo Cogito Ergo Sum.
