Re: 8/3/12 - Reds vs. Pirates
This Pirate team is always coming back. Beware.

Latos is done. Broxton coming in.

Re: 8/3/12 - Reds vs. Pirates
Still can't figure that last play out. Looked like an easy out. Stubbs must have misjudged it, I just don't get it.
Tough play, man. |

Re: 8/3/12 - Reds vs. Pirates
Price apparently mistakenly calls for the righty Broxton instead of the lefty, Marshall.

Re: 8/3/12 - Reds vs. Pirates
Too bad that Latos' night ended on that...have no idea how Stubbs didn't catch that. Uber-catchable.

Re: 8/3/12 - Reds vs. Pirates
I guess if you have two guys in the pen that's the rule. He had a short but terse discussion with the ump. I have no idea what the rule is. Maybe he did want Broxton?

Re: 8/3/12 - Reds vs. Pirates
Broxton is a very ground ball, keep it in the park pitcher though I think I like the call

Re: 8/3/12 - Reds vs. Pirates
Think the problem may be the camera angle. Just made it look like an easy fly ball. Your explanation is undoubtedly correct.
