Re: NLDS Game 4 - Reds vs Giants 10/10/12
Getting into the 5th only down a run provided hope with a well rested team and the other team on pitcher #4 (who should have pitched last night's 10th and not be available today).
You just gotta pull Leake after the first hit and be ready with Lecure the third time through. Play it like a game 5 or at least a game 4.5 No sense having a well rested pen for the offseason Evereything that can go wrong has gone wrong today. Need a run here in the bottom of the 5th to stop the bleeding |

In an elimination game? Coming off 2 putrid offensive performances? Yeah, I'm not going to put money on the Reds continuing to beat up on a demonstrably great pitcher.

Re: NLDS Game 4 - Reds vs Giants 10/10/12
THis isn't all on Leake. Ten baserunners and only 2 runs is inexcusable as well.

Re: NLDS Game 4 - Reds vs Giants 10/10/12
First off, why qualify to the NL? Because it sounds more ominous when it is no ____ team? Second, has anyone ever had the last three at home to lose?

As usual with this team, they don't score runs. They didn't score when Bailey pitched a gem yesterday. They can't score when Leake allows some today. The team is susceptible to right handed pitching. The team is a low OBP, low BA outfit that lives or dies on the long ball. Some of us said it as early as mid-April. Reds managed some good offensive games in SF, but it's a struggle for them to produce offensively, particularly since Votto is obviously not right. So let's stop trashing Dusty and Leake and everyone else. This is the team, it's weaknesses are showing, and maybe they still pull it out later today or tomorrow. Go Reds. |

The shame of this series is without 3 bad plays (Philips baserunning, Hanigan's passed ball and Rolen's error) we would not be having this conversation. Because the pitching was good enough to sweep this series. |
