3/26/10- Reds @ Mariners (ST) (WLW)

[_Sir_Charles_]

And today's closer....Kip Wells. *shudder*

Corey Patterson sighting! :O)

[_Sir_Charles_]

2 singles off of Wells so far. He did manage to get Patterson out...but then again, who can't?

[_Sir_Charles_]

Walk to load the bases. The Kid steps up to the dish with the bases jacked. I've got a BAAAAAAAAD feeling about this one.

[_Sir_Charles_]

Good lord. Wells isn't even close. He and Lincoln simply need to go. With all the quality arms and young arms we've got...what is the facination with these two guys.

3 balls / 0 strikes

[_Sir_Charles_]

Junior wants to end it now. And he has. Grand salami. Ballgame

Stick a fork in Kip Wells....he's done.

[Matt700wlw]

Griffey still has his stroke.

Kip Wells has to keep his private.

[reds44]

That was awesome, not gonna lie.

[_Sir_Charles_]

Oh well. At least it doesn't count, right? RIGHT?

Seriously though, some good things today. Leake & Wood both pitched exceedingly well. Votto broke out of his spring funk. Balentin showed some skill in the outfield. Francisco continues to show he's got the bat for the bigs right NOW. All in all, not a bad day.

And hey, even though it was against the Reds...I'll always like hearing Junior go yard with the sacks jammed. How can anyone root against Griffey?

Super Cool and Totally Awesome!

Best way to lose a Spring Training game.

I was pulling for Jr. there too.

What the hay it's only a spring training game.

[Scrap Irony]

I was pulling for Junior, if only because it means Wells doesn't make the team.

Yay
