Thats because we don't have stud hitters like Mike McHenry and Clint Barmes.Originally Posted by 40YrRedsFan
It really is unfreaking believable that a team hitting a combined .220 can hit .500 with RISP with most of the damage being done by guys are are looking up a .200.
That first and third with no outs and no runs scored fiasco is what killed them.
Yea, if we only had Costanzo...
The only time Ludwick gets a hit is if it is the first pitch of the AB. (His 2B last night and both HR"S tonight)
Todd Frazier and Brandon Phillips failed miserably in all aspects of the game tonight.
This was just one of those games we were never ment to win...
I suppose, but like I said before I would rather have a root canal and a prostate exam than to see my beloved Reds lose to the Pirates.
That's two series in a row the reds have dropped to division rivals. This team makes me sooo frustrated. I' hav ethe sinking feeling that this year is going to be a repeat of 2011 not 2010

Well they beat Chapman, gotta give em credit.
The bottom of the 10th was a trainwreck tho.
Raise the jolly roger
I don't see how you can believe that statement, with the real "Big Red Machine" I never had that feeling. The Reds themself expected to win every game during the '75-76' season's. The above statement is what's wrong with this current team! It's not OK to lose, yes it will happen, but never accept it.
[QUOTE=Stray;2621679]Well they beat Chapman, gotta give em credit.
I don't give them credit at all. If our all or nothing (mostly nothing) offense
could muster a hit (besides a solo HR) once in a while, we would be running away with the division.
Anyone notcie all of Ludwicks hits come on the first pitch of the AB. IF he goes into a count its over, as you saw his last AB
[QUOTE=40YrRedsFan;2621692]even a timely flyball would have been big hereWell they beat Chapman, gotta give em credit.

The older I get - the better I was
and yes - I hate the Cardinals (Reds fan since 1958)
I miss Raisor
4 runs against the pirates should have been more than enough, even in this rinky dink pall park.
