Wikipedia for "junk" in baseball terminology
breaking balls and knuckleballs, pitches that are difficult to hit due to movement rather than velocity. The term is also used to describe a "junk pitcher" or a junkball pitcher. "I couldn't believe he threw me a fastball because he had me down 1-2," Thames said. "He's usually a junk pitcher and he tried to sneak a fastball past me, and he left it up."[7] See also: Eephus pitch
I looked back at the 1st run scored on the single by Shumaker. Phillips should have had that ball and that would have been out number 3. Pitching has been good in this one thus far.
2 under the glove tonight. Rare.
Yeah, we are so used to those being routine.
Stubbs started the night at .215. He's now at .212. I am no math whiz but is there a chance he's at .000 after his next 211 at bats?

Reds44 it's ok to just admit you stepped in it when challenging the junk remark. It's painful to watch you digging in on this.
No. But he'll get a crack at it in the 2 hole to be sure.
They're awfully tough.

And are only in 3rd. We need a new hitting coach. Like now. Oh and better hitters.
Junk has a negative connotation, including in baseball. All I'm saying.
So why wasn't Marshall brought in for Jay? Anybody?
This is scary.
