Zito 6-2, 2.78 ERA

Since when is Zito tearing it up? Should be a good pitching matchup.

Only 3 strikeouts so he might just be getting really unlucky?!

At 3-for-29, just walking up to the plate is a recipe for success.

That's a lineup that works for us. That's my favorite lineup except I'd rather have Hanigan. It will be nice when we get Hanigan back, though.

Doesn't Gomes have trouble with breaking pitches and doesn't Zito have an excellent curveball? Just sayin'. Maybe he hangs one.

Re: 6-7 Reds host Giants; Cueto to get back on track

Anyone else here have the mlb.tv feed? They were just showing some very brief highlights of Reds victories this season, and toward the end of it Dusty is seen losing his toothpick as he celebrated victory. He looks down for the toothpick, then looks over at someone else as if "WTF happened to it?"

Does Cueto always wear long sleeves regardless how warm it is?

Welcome to a soapbox Zito. Let's torch this guy.

Re: 6-7 Reds host Giants; Cueto to get back on track

The announcers can't seem to make up their minds on what types of pitches Cueto is throwing. In the same sentence it went from breaking ball to changeup to slider. Which is it? I thought it was a breakup, but not a lot of break to it.
