That' all she wrote.
We're going to Philly.
The Reds win 91 games, win their division, and what's the reward? Reds have to travel to Philadelphina to play the best team in baseball all because of some stupid rule that says two teams in the same division can't play each other in the LDS. That's a stupid rule, IMO.
It's the Yankee Red sox rule.Originally Posted by OnBaseMachine
I don't know if it's bad going to Philly in the first round vs. the second. One positive way to look at it is that we only have to win three games instead of four. Upsets happen more frequently in five game series. Win one of the first two games.
Pitching matchups for the Philly series will look like this:
Game 1: Volquez vs Halladay
Game 2: Arroyo vs Oswalt
Game 3: Cueto vs Hamels
I'm more concerned with the game time for our first home game next Sunday.
That we may not know right away. Since there are potentially 4 games that day sometimes they will not announce the weekend games at first or they may change depending on if all the AL series are still going on that day.
3-0 Giants after 8.
Pinch hitter, Headley and Venable due up in the 9th.
Durango grounds out to short. 1 out.
Headley grounds out to 2nd. 2 outs.
It is a stupid rule...but the Bengals fan in me wishes the NFL had it, at least in 2005
Bring on the Phillies. This is the playoffs, let's enjoy it. Plus, who doesn't like an underdog?
It is over. Giants win 3-0. Reds headed to Philly.
Wouldn't want to be a Padre fan today.
/r/reds
That's it.
Who are we rooting for Braves or Giants
