Re: 6/1/12 - Reds at Astros
It seriously is like a video game.
"I think I'll make him really tall. Pitching power, set that to 100. Mound presence, 100. Oh, oh, make him a Cuban defector for dramatic flair..."

Re: 6/1/12 - Reds at Astros
Now with a 2.5 game lead, they must continue to play well while the Cardinals are floundering. Great game by Leake.

Re: 6/1/12 - Reds at Astros
We're good again, and I have a good feeling about Latos tomorrow.

Re: 6/1/12 - Reds at Astros
I saw two innings of Santana's no-hitter and then I saw Chapman's ninth inning performance.
Fairly good pitching, I would say. Not too shabby. |

Re: 6/1/12 - Reds at Astros
101 on Fox radar, on last pitch. Rolling eyes from Stro's batters after whiffing, helpless look.

Re: 6/1/12 - Reds at Astros
Reds scored 4 runs tonight thanks to Bruce's HR, but runs remain precious to this team. There is no reason why our 1&2 hitters should be there at the top of the lineup. Hitting .232 & .228, they stifle run production. I hope help is on the way.

Re: 6/1/12 - Reds at Astros
I said before he came in that he could give up a run just to get it over with, but dang, that wasn't happening tonight.
