Bruce with a rocket off the wall

[Kingspoint]

I've got a (bad) feeling Cueto might go back out.

He might. Baker likes to let his pitchers go to 112-114 pitches in situations like this. That's one more batter or two if the first guy swings early.

Strasburg gives up sac fly and RBI single and is yanked. 2-0 Braves. The rookie going to get another loss despite a solid performance.

[redsfan_12]

That would probably be ideal, but with him likely being used pretty cautiously at first, I'd hold off yet.

I see where your going. Its pretty much different opinions with everyone. You can look at it either way really. He needs work with some room for error, or, you might need him tomorrow, and he will fall apart being used two days in a row.

That bunt means that's it for Cueto. Thankfully.

[redsfan_12]

Nice bunt Ramon..I feel more confident with him bunting than anyone else right now.

[Kingspoint]

Unbelievable that the Pirates have lost 17 in a row on the road.

[redsfan_12]

nice job Heisey!!

[Kingspoint]

It's interesting that we have 12 pitchers and only 5 bench players. That's a lot of relief pitchers.

[Kingspoint]

Current Half Inning (last play on top)

Phillips struck out swinging.
Stubbs to third on wild pitch.
Heisey hit sacrifice fly to left, Bruce scored.
Chris Heisey hit for Johnny Cueto.
Hernandez sacrificed to third, Bruce to third, Stubbs to second.
Stubbs walked.
Bruce doubled to deep center.


We've outhit them 11-2 since they got the 1st 4 hits of the game.

[redsfan_12]

Heres Bray.

[Kingspoint]

Juan Castro pinch-hit for Chase Utley?

[Kingspoint]

Who pitches for the REDS tomorrow night?

[redsfan_12]

welp.

[Kingspoint]

First game back.

I'm sure he had the jitters.

Don't let this outing by Bray cloud your opinion of him.

After tonight, he's going to be a blessing for this team.
