Re: 9/16/12 Reds at Marlins
Foul, two and one.
Swing, two-two count now. Foul again, Brox throwing fastballs. Foul again, lined to right field side. Foul tip, stays alive. Marlins TV announcers refer to floating strike zone today. Full count on a very close pitch. Last edited by Kc61; 09-16-2012 at 05:24 PM. |

Stubbs brings down a 700 foot blast to CF for a Reds win.

Looking at replay, a truly great catch by Stubbs.

Re: 9/16/12 Reds at Marlins
Fantastic catch by Stubbs going into that cutout and timing his jump just right.

Re: 9/16/12 Reds at Marlins
That's why you keep Stubbs around. Magic number 5 now.

Re: 9/16/12 Reds at Marlins
Whew!!! I hate getting by on the skin of our teeth, especially in extra innings... I guess at the end of the day it's another "W" in the column and another number off the magic number. I hope to see better baseball being played by this team in October.

Re: 9/16/12 Reds at Marlins
I think most people want to keep him around, as he'd be a terrific bench player that can come in late innings and run or play defense. And he'd still be an OK guy to have filling in as a reserve. Just not worthwhile as a starter.

Re: 9/16/12 Reds at Marlins
I loved the grin on Broxton's face as Stubbs was coming in from the catch like, "boy, you really saved my bacon."
"And you know how much I like my bacon."

IDK-I've seen an awful lot of "Trade Stubbs" threads and posts.
