All I know is that I can't wait for tonight to watch some real baseball. The ONLY game on this afternoon is the Pirates at the Cubs - talk about an unpleasant experience!

The Pirates are getting beat 4-0 by the Cubs. Good chance the Pirates will be in 4th place by the end of the day.

I'd rather have Stubbs at #2, but I'm guessing the Reds are giving Stubbs a chance to prove he's productive at the bottom of the order, since he was struggling at the top.. So in the big picture, I can understand batting Valdez #2.

Valdez has done pretty well over the last few games.

The fences of this stadium make me feel like I'm going blind. Looks like they colored it in with a green highlighter

Re: 9/14/2012 Reds at Marlins

Bottom 1st: Miami
- B. Petersen struck out looking
- J. Ruggiano popped out to second
- J. Reyes singled to left center
- G. Stanton struck out swinging

Top 2nd: Cincinnati
- R. Ludwick flied out to center
- J. Bruce flied out to deep center
- T. Frazier doubled to left
- T. Frazier to third on wild pitch
- D. Stubbs grounded out to third


Frazier already looks like the days off helped him, Stubbs still looks lost.


Bottom 2nd: Miami
- Lee struck out looking
- Dobbs flied out to deep center
- Solano flied out to center

Top 3rd: Cincinnati
- Hanigan grounds out to third
- Arroyo strikes out
- BP lines out to third

Re: 9/14/2012 Reds at Marlins

that was a perfect example of don't give in..a walk is ok. Pitch to the guy you want to pitch too. Leake could learn from that. Arroyo...the crafty veteran..
