Shadows are going to play a factor now. Not a good time to be behind by 3

Re: Reds vs. Giants 10/11/12: NLDS Game 5

Now you Reds fans will get a taste of the shadows. It really takes away from the game.

The Cardinals were accused of complaining about having to play with the shadows being a problem.

This is the biggest game of the year for your team.(so far) Do you really want the players to fight the strobe light effect on pitched balls?

The Giants have the lead at this point. If the shadows keep anybody else from being able to see a pitched ball, this game could be over.

I think all playoff games should be set up to avoid this.

Imagine if the Yankees had to play under conditions like this. It would be national news.

It is never a good time to be down 3 runs

And we didn't carry Mes, instead used Cairo...so naturally we can't use the SH Navarro.
