Play some ball.
Good to see that 'slap in the face' didn't land Brandon on the DL. I was figuring it would at least be a day-to-day situation.
Maybin greets Chapman with a flare to right that drops. Runner on first.
And Maybin is picked off before the first pitch is delivered. 1-3-6.
Parrino jerks one out to left. 1-0.
Guzman caught looking.
Blanks lines a double down the leftfield line.
Darnell lines to deep right.
1-0. Padres.

Baker rolls one to second. Phillips retires him 4-3.
Liriano rolls one up the middle. Phillips fields but has no play. Infield hit.
(Bray long-tossed on Tuesday and worked bullpen session on the side today. All went well.)
Chapman picks another runner off first. 1-3-6.
Ground ball deflects off the glove of Chapman to Phillips who nips the runner at first. 1-4-3.
If Gameday is right, Chapman has thrown only 16 pitches through two. Sounds a little wonky to me.
1-0. Padres.

Rolen grounds one down the first-base line that gets through and Rolen slides safely into second.
Phipps lines solidly to center. Rolen is held at third. Runners on the corners with nobody out.
Daryl Jones strikes out swinging. That will never work.
Phipps steals second without a throw. 2nd and 3rd.
Frazier, making a strong bid to make the club, doubles home both runners. 2-1.
Hanigan lines hard right to Maybin. Two down.
Navarro caught looking. Reds take the lead.
2-1. Reds.

Valdez retired on a grounder to Rolen.
Maybin skies to Heisey on the first pitch.
Aroldis gets a small measure of revenge by striking out Parrino.
Pitch count questionable. I would say around 30 for Chapman. He may go another inning. He threw a ton of strikes.
2-1. Reds.
Brandon grounds out to short this time.
Cozart rolls one to the second baseman.
Heisey looking fairly miserable this spring. Ks. That's no way to win the left field job.
2-1. Reds.

Arredondo balks the runner to second.
Sa-wing and a miss. One down.
Guzman moves over to third on a grounder to short. Two down.

Rolen set down on a checked-swing strike out.
Maybin makes an over-the-shoulder grab on the warning track of a hard-hit ball off the bat of Phipps.

Ron Mahay on.
And Maybin greets Mahay with a ground single to left.
Cozart fields in the hole but his throw pulls Phillips off the bag. E-6. Two men on.
Cozart dives but can't come up the ball. Heisey fires to third and almost gets Maybin, who had to hold up to see if the ball went through. Bases full of Friars.
Mahay pitching his way to retirement is rocked again. Liner to left. Bases still juiced. 6-2.
Gameday has stopped so I actually have to listen to Kelch. LOL.

Mahay taking matters into his own hands strikes out Blanks.

Changes o'plenty for the Reds. Clayton Tanner with an opportunity to shine here in the 7th.
Sawyer Carroll has plenty of distance but the ball hooks foul. Just a loud strike.
D.J. Phillips comes on in a hurry in center to make the catch. One away.
Tanner puts away Blanks for the second out.
Darnell with a first-pitch single to keep the inning alive for San Diego.
