What's your favorite game you've been to this year and why?

With the REDS doing exactly what the majority here at Redszone (and the rest of the nation) thought they would do.....hangin just below .500 for the year on their way to finishing with 76-79 wins, I thought it'd be nice to talk about the best parts of the season.

So, which was your favorite game this season and why?

A refreshing topic!

Mine would be a couple weeks ago, when I was on Kiss Cam. Thankfully my wife hasn't yet found out about this. Eek.

Also: sweeping the Indians was choice. And beating Boston that Friday night was delightful.

When Dunn hit the walkoff off of Kobayashi.

Definately mine is the sweep of the Indians! Dunn OWNS the Indians.

Bruce's Debut was my favorite game I've been to live.

Favorite game period was either Bruce's walk off or Dunn's against CLE

Agreed. I was at all three and they were fun games.

My other favorite would be one of the games from the Phillies series early in the season. They lost the game but I made the jumbo tron twice.

My favorite live game was Saturday, 7-19. Not only was it a great game (Win 7-2 over NYM) but Larkin, Geronimo, Jay and the late Herrmann were honored and
were inducted to Hall of Fame

I was only at the Friday night extra inning win against the Braves so I guess that was my favorite live game!

My favorite games I watched on TV was when we swept the Indians, especially Dunn's walkoff.

Re: What's your favorite game you've been to this year and why?

My favorite game is definitely the game with Atlanta on May 31st at GABP. It's the game where Jay Bruce hit his first major league home run (and it was a walk off HR in extra innings!) and Junior hit HR #599 which meant we got to watch them get everything prepared in case he hit #600 that afternoon. He got like five more at bats too so it was really cool! The game was extra cool because it was also on Fox that afternoon so it was a nationally televised game where we kept Atlanta's weird 'one run, away game losing streak' going for another day, LOL

I also got a fabulous picture of Jay heading into home plate after the HR right before he got tackled by everyone. It's currently my desktop picture.

definitely the game where brantley called Edwin "not clutch". Ede decided to stroke a 3 run shot to win it. The ball hit about 15 feet from me and the crowd went nuts.

The game at Wrigley a few weeks ago when the Reds hit 7 or so HR's. It made the bar hopping so much more fun!!!
