Re: 7/3/2012: Reds @ Dodgers--Votto returns, Cozart has a hard head

God forbid Cueto actually give up a run, although the 6th inning is usually his achille's.

2 down full count he's running on the pitch and he can fly - he scores on that hit without the balk

Ground out to Cozart. 1-1 after 6.

First pitch looked like a strike, as well.

Time to feast on the Dodger bullpen.

May be right. That liner got to Stubbs quickly, though. Could have been a play.

Re: 7/3/2012: Reds @ Dodgers--Votto returns, Cozart has a hard head

Am I allowed to say that was kind of a BS balk, or will someone tomorrow call me "pathetic"?

He's running on a full count pitch when he's not a force out? I agree he beats it, but no.

I know why he called it. It was awfully late, though.

Cannot give up that hit to Abreu. Sorry, I know Johnny has been great, but he grooved the pitch.

Fall behind a hitter like Abreu 3-1 you don't give in. If you walk him, you walk him. First base was open the Dodgers have very few hitters.

Just a terrible pitch.

Cueto's got that opposite field blooper working. This one caught by Loney. One away.

I would be. 75% chance he makes contact, or misses and is out. The way Cueto is pitching the odds are slim he walks him but if he does the way he runs you take the chance you beat a throw and steal third. Yes. I would have.

No chance he would have been running.

Cozart drops a single.

I don't think he gave in. He got a 3-1 slider in for a strike. He had just struck out Ellis on a fastball.
