Re: Reds vs D-Backs 9/12/08
Sweet justice. Dunn walks in a run. Take that Dusty.

Re: Reds vs D-Backs 9/12/08
Dusty Baker is such a poor manager. Just awful. All these extra pitchers and he brings in the injured Burton to give the game away.

Re: Reds vs D-Backs 9/12/08
In comes No. 52 in your program and No. 1 in your hearts after Bray walks in a run. RBI for Dunn

Re: Reds vs D-Backs 9/12/08
Why does Dunn insist on clogging the bases?

Re: Reds vs D-Backs 9/12/08
Bray had Dunn 0-2 and walked him. Good grief. But it shouldn't have come to that. Using Burton there was an awful move.

Re: Reds vs D-Backs 9/12/08
And now he brings Lincoln in. LOL. Why not just send Roenicke home so he can begin his offseason?

Re: Reds vs D-Backs 9/12/08
Bray=1.6+ WHIP. Not part of the long term solution.

Re: Reds vs D-Backs 9/12/08
Once again, Reds bullpen can't find the strike zone, nibbling at the corners, down and in the dirt--3rd straight pitcher to do that. Lincoln gets a K by throwing down the middle.
Interesting. 2 down and 2-0.

Re: Reds vs D-Backs 9/12/08
Paul Bako, catcher extraordinaire. Technically a wild pitch, but if the batter swings at it, you should be able to catch it.

Re: Reds vs D-Backs 9/12/08
Wild pitch/Passed ball makes it 3-0. Nice bullpen management this inning.

Hey, at least they weren't inexperienced runs.

Re: Reds vs D-Backs 9/12/08
Lincoln throws in the dirt again, it gets by Bako and it's 3-0. Game over (as if it wasn't at 1-0)
K to end the inning. When you don't score, it doesn't matter how many the bad guys get I guess. Take away Harang's error and using a different set of pitchers in the 8th and we could still be scoreless, but we need to score more runs and play better defense against a good pitcher. We didn't.
