Predict Game 1 of the LDS

Ok, this is my attempt to interject some fun into the current gloomy mood...

It's ok to predict the Reds will lose

My prediction.
Reds win game 1, 4-2. Score 3 runs off Cain. Ludwick has 2 RBI. Phillips and Votto both score runs. Bruce gets a solo HR late in the game off a Giants' reliever.

Re: Predict Game 1 of the LDS

13-2 Reds win. Votto finally busts his HR drought with 2 bombs. Phillips & Bruce each add one too. 16 hits, lots for extra bases.

With this team...when you see what they "should" do, go the other way. Facing Cain in SF...yep, offensive explosion.

Re: Predict Game 1 of the LDS

Giants win 2-0 as the offense is, well, the offense.

Naw, 2 unearned and a broken bat flare from Phillips after Hanigan walks and is bunted over.

Reds win 3-2, no Reds home runs.

Re: Predict Game 1 of the LDS

Reds get no hit but win 1-0 on a bases loaded walk in the 9th. Cueto piches a complete game 3 hitter.

Re: Predict Game 1 of the LDS

2-1 win. 2 early runs, Cueto with 7 innings and the bullpen is as advertised.

Re: Predict Game 1 of the LDS

5-2 good guys. Reds come back from being down 2-0 to score 5 unanswered.

Re: Predict Game 1 of the LDS

I think the Reds jump on him early and score a pair in the first two innings.

I just don't see the Giants scoring in this one. Cincinnati has a much better bullpen than the Giants, and I can see that being the difference in the series also. 3-0 Reds
