Re: reds vs brewers 9/9/08

According to Gameday, Weeks is working his AB, fouling six before popping to Phillips on the 11th pitch.

Re: reds vs brewers 9/9/08

Hardy helps out by grounding out on a 3-0 pitch to end the inning. Ramirez has good stuff tonight but is struggling to command it.

Re: reds vs brewers 9/9/08

73 pitches for RR in three innings. Maybe they should shut him down.

I mean, Cabrera at SS. Really!? Play Keppinger. Play Janish. Play SOMEBODY who might have a role on this team next year.
Dude we are just trying to win games down the strech. Hank said it's the right thing to do.

Don't forget that the CF leads off, dude. He's the guy with speed and that's important. Then, of corse, you hit the short stop second. I mean, dude, that's pretty much common knowledge. But really, the key is being agressive at the plate.

Re: reds vs brewers 9/9/08

Ramirez makes Cameron look foolish on a 2-2 changeup. Second K for Ramirez.

Another filthy changeup to K Bill Hall on a pitch that bounced in the dirt.

Kendall bounces out to EdE. A nice easy 1-2-3 4th inning for RR. 1-0 Brewers after four innings.

Re: reds vs brewers 9/9/08

Castillo lines a single to right to begin the 5th. He went 3-for-4 last night and is 2-for-2 tonight.

Re: reds vs brewers 9/9/08

And now Hanigan executes a perfect hit-and-run with a single to RF. First and third with nobody out for RR.

Re: reds vs brewers 9/9/08

Another single by Castillo. There's obviously no way this kid is this good, but I have no clue how good he IS...offensively OR defensively. I see people mention using Castillo at catcher...anybody know what his defense is like?

Hanigan follows up with a single. It's a rookie-fest! :O)

Hanigan can handle the bat.
