Edwin flies out to right on the first pitch and Bruce flies out to right.

Ok. Watching the Reds play the Cubs officially makes me miss Adam Dunn more.

Re: 4/22/09 - Reds vs. Cubs
Phillips takes an outside pitch and flies out to left. 0-0 mid 2nd. Phillips biggest problem is he continues to try to pull everything.

Re: 4/22/09 - Reds vs. Cubs
I was 11 the summer of 1982, when the worst offensive team I have ever seen wore the Reds "C". I think even that one had some games where they strung some hits together on occasion. Memory dims, but I think that's right.

Re: 4/22/09 - Reds vs. Cubs
Late to this thread. Glad Dusty realizes Phillips at clean-up isn't etched in stone, but does anyone think dropping him down against a lefty is odd timing? 0for 21 be darned. Phillips has has three things really going for him: He's a great defender, he runs really fast and he destroys lefty pitching. His value comes from those three things.
Should make him the number 6 guy permanently against RH pitching (or maybe 7th), but against a lefty, he hits in the top 4 some place IMO.
