Re: 5-11-10 Cincy vs. Pirates (Ahoy Mateys!)
Coming back from surgery 3 months early also, that guy is underrated.

Cueto, buzzsaw.
Great to see Heisey shine a little too. Team's looking good right now.

They just said it again. The Pirates can officially get nothing right.

Re: 5-11-10 Cincy vs. Pirates (Cueto throws 1 hit shutout)
Kids night out. Cueto's complete game 1-hitter. Heisey's breakout game. Votto and Bruce have big hits. The future's bright, folks.
But mix in good games from veterans Phillips, Rolen, and Hernandez and you get a blowout. Take that Buccos! Now 3 over .500 and it looks like tomorrow might be a good day too. Time to break out the cheap beer and celebrate (broke). Life is good. |

Just popping in to remind everyone that tonight's game was freaking fantastic.
Carry on.

Re: 5-11-10 Cincy vs. Pirates (Ahoy Mateys!)
And just a tad ironic that the one hit was past Janish, if I remember hearing that correctly while driving home. How close was it?

Paul dove for it--it didn't seem that hard hit--and it either went off his glove or he just missed it. Unfortunately, he probably couldn't have gotten Cedano at first regardless.

Re: 5-11-10 Cincy vs. Pirates (Ahoy Mateys!)
Astros took the lead 4-2 in their half of the 7th, but the Cards have cut it to 4-3 in the bottom half and are still threatening. Pujols is up with 1 out and runners on 1st and 2nd...
EDIT: 'Stros still up 4-3 heading to the 8th. All 4 of their runs against Penny are unearned. Last edited by Screwball; 05-11-2010 at 10:30 PM. |

Re: 5-11-10 Cincy vs. Pirates (Ahoy Mateys!)
Nice, Berkman and Pence both with solo shots to give Houston a 6-3 lead.
Amazing side note: the Astros 2, 3, 4, and 5 hitters' respective 2010 OPSes: .435 (!), .687, .530, and .645. That's beyond brutal. (Yet two still homered off Motte |

Re: 5-11-10 Cincy vs. Pirates (Cueto throws 1 hit shutout)
Astros bullpen shuts the door to close out the victory 6-3. Reds now just 2 games back of the Cards.
Given Cueto's gem, Cards losing to the lowly Astros, Cubs losing, and Brewers' getting beaten down (10-3 to the Braves), tonight's a sensational night for Reds baseball!
