Re: 5-17-10. Reds vs Brewers
Line drive to the pitcher and no damage done. Brewers have a runner on third with one out in both innings and have yet to cash in. Actually, the Reds did the same thing in the first.

Re: 5-17-10. Reds vs Brewers
Someone was asking if we should trade for a #1 pitcher.
Cueto is a #1 pitcher. His last start indicated as much. These two innings are also showing why he's a #1 pitcher. He's had a little trouble, but he's gotten out of it with good pitching, while still keeping his pitch count down to 31 pitches in two innings. |

Re: 5-17-10. Reds vs Brewers
What an at bat by Jay. I'm loving this kid right now. Down 0-2, didn't chase anything, and draws a walk.

Re: 5-17-10. Reds vs Brewers
All those breaking pitches the Cardinals threw Stubbs may still be in his head, because he looked at a fastball right down the middle.

Re: 5-17-10. Reds vs Brewers
It's natural for the REDS to have a letdown tonight after the emotion from this weekend.
It's a game like today where the Veterans make a difference. But, it's still going to come down to starting pitching, defense, and some timely hitting. |

Re: 5-17-10. Reds vs Brewers
Right now it's bad luck. 1st and 3rd, 1 out, Rolen hits a rocket right to 3rd base. Man on first, 2 out, Hernandez lines out to 2nd. A few feet in either direction and this is a different ballgame.

Re: 5-17-10. Reds vs Brewers
Weeks just made a great catch there. One thing to remember here is that we are going against a #1 pitcher. We can win this though

Re: 5-17-10. Reds vs Brewers
An amazing confidence being displayed by REDSZONE game thread contributors. For so long it was a blend of disappointments, second-guessings, and atta-boys. Now, it's just a blend of atta-boys and off-topic subjects.
It's so cool to have 5 quality Starting Pitchers. Every night we're in the game. |
