Need an out and ASAP as I'd prefer not to face Bonds in the 9th.
Zed's dead, man, De la Rosa pinch-ran for Melonhead already.

Please someone spark Freel. His bat speed is just not there right now.

I believe so. He finished the seventh and the Reds got Ross' homer in the eighth.

You say "nutted out". I say "got lucky as all get out". And yes, we're watching the same game.
Perspective, I guess. It's sometimes tough to say a pitcher gave us a solid performance. Give me 6 2/3 with 3 runs after giving up 3 in one inning....yeah, I'll take that out of any Reds starter down the stretch.

Strike out on high pitch.

Good lord, ump - it's almost 1 am here, not there! I don't why you're in such a rush.

Re: 8/24 Gamethread vs. Giants.. Begin the West Coast Trip

Top of the ninth.

Ryan Freel steps in. No one has appreciated my earlier alcohol jokes, so I will switch to scrappiness.

A scrappy 2-1 count.
Some changes--Pete Happy is in right, De la rosa at third, bad 2-2 call.
Freel strikes out looking. Bad call. Don't get run, we need you.

Great job by Narron to get Freel out of there.
