Houston now up 17 to 0 on St. Louis in the 2nd inning.

The offense has gone to sleep.

Yeah, Brandon's got a beef on THAT call.

Re: 5-11-10 Cincy vs. Pirates (Ahoy Mateys!)
Hehe. Thank you. My job is done here. :O)
1-2-3 down go the Reds again. I hate it when we've got a starter on the ropes early and then take our foot off the gas and let him settle in. Exactly where Morton is now...settled.

Re: 5-11-10 Cincy vs. Pirates (Ahoy Mateys!)
That's just mean even though I knew it had to be a joke because Houston can barely put up SEVEN runs in a game much less seventeen, LOL
![]() Not that our offense is doing much better. Why did we let that guy off the hook early? Now he's getting horrible strike calls (what was that call on Brandon?!) and getting his breaking pitches in there. Argh.

Re: 5-11-10 Cincy vs. Pirates (Ahoy Mateys!)
Quite the understatement. I didn't notice that missed call last night in regards to the Nix double when the ball went in the dugout. On the replay it was clear as can be that he was about 2-3 steps PAST 2nd when the ball reached the catcher.

95 on that heater from Cueto. Best I've seen tonight.

1-2-3 Cueto! 63 pitches. I just can't get over how great he looks tonight. And it's not the Pirates. He's just really pounding the zone....a tight zone at that.

Re: 5-11-10 Cincy vs. Pirates (Ahoy Mateys!)
Cueto has to be taking notes from Mike Leake about how to go after hitters better. He looks awesome tonight and that's so encouraging to see from him.

Re: 5-11-10 Cincy vs. Pirates (Ahoy Mateys!)
I'm not sure what that says about our pitching staff & coaching staff if people are taking notes from a rook. Don't get me wrong, I'll take it...but still.
