Reds are in danger of being no-hit. Nothing remotely close to a hit so far. And CB Buckner is unprofessional enough to get caught up in the excitement, meaning ridiculous strike calls.
Right now the main objective should be to break up this no hitter. Here's what I'd do.
I would put Ludwick in for Cairo after this at bat. Let Ludwick play second, who cares. He can hit lefties this year.
I would pinch hit for the pitcher every time., Mesoraco. Wilson Valdez (bunt). I'd even consider giving Phillips a shot, he can hit lefties even when dizzy.
I wouldn't let this guy get a no hitter under any circumstances.
Cairo pops out to short. Still being no-hit. 2-0 Giants.
Can Valdez play second?
