Re: 3/3/09 Reds vs Red Sox

Those are two very ugly offenses and impressive sets of pitchers. Unless the wind is blowing out again I'd expect a low scoring game...

Half the Red Sox offense is in the WBC, the other half is somehow even more injured or sick than Rocco Baldelli.

Re: 3/3/09 Reds vs Red Sox

Lester is a tough matchup for the lefties -- Jones, Bruce, Francisco, Ward

He hit Bruce with a pitch(sorry, I'm sure it was an accident), then Varitek threw him out trying to steal.

Re: 3/3/09 Reds vs Red Sox

If Dusty continues to run into this many outs during the regular season I'm going to have to be locked up...

He got out of 1st and 3rd, no outs, by K'ing Wilkerson and getting Baldelli to hit into a DP.

They sure have been caught stealing a lot in the first week of exhibition games, that's for sure.

I was thinking the same thing. A big problem with last year's offense was not only did they have trouble getting on base, but even when they did they were routinely either picked off or caught stealing.

Early indications are this year's squad will be no different running the basepaths.

Owings throws a 1-2-3 second inning with 2 K's. No score after 2.
