Cincinnati Reds:
CF: Shin-Soo Choo
SS: Zack Cozart
1B: Joey Votto
2B: Brandon Phillips
RF: Jay Bruce
3B: Todd Frazier
LF: Xavier Paul
C: Ryan Hanigan
SP: Tony Cingrani

Chicago Cubs:
2B: Darwin Barney
3B: Cody Ransom
1B: Anthony Rizzo
LF: Alfonso Soriano
RF: Scott Hairston
C: Welington Castillo
SS: Starlin Castro
CF: Ryan Sweeney
SP: Matt Garza

Predictions:
(1) No base-clearing brawls
(2) Cingrani throws a lot of pitches, but does well. He doesn't make it through the 5th inning.
(3) A player whose name rhymes with "Boo" gets hit by a pitch.
(4) Reds win

Soriano has been Cingrani's nemesis. I have advice for Tony. Don't walk him but don't give him anything to hit.

when a guys strike zone is top of helmet to shoelaces it's hard to not give him something to swing at

Sitting at the bar across from Wrigley prior to heading in. My first time here in 10 years. Wish me luck rooting for the Reds.

He could follow Bailey's blueprint last night....throw him a bender that ends up down and away or in the dirt....he'll swing. Struck him out thrice.

I wanted to use more colorful terms but I can't afford too many more Redszone infractions. :P

And ya I'm surprised MLB doesn't do something about that especially when he does it regularly...I mean if I am an paid advertiser I wouldn't be too happy about anyone that might change the channel because the game isn't started when it is supposed to.

Sure I'd blame Garza but you have to put some of the blame on the coach.

On second thought it's probably just because it's the Cubs.

Would it be wrong to say Choo was trying to bunt for a hit? Or was it clearly a sacrifice? I'm just listening, couldn't see it.

Brutus

Why bunt there? I hate it.

The base/out situation isn't a bad time for a sacrifice, but when you have one of your second-best hitter at the plate, it doesn't make much sense. Perhaps Choo just free-lanced on that one.

If he had hit the ball to the right side and advanced the man to third, it would be great fundamental baseball. What's the difference?

I think it's one of those things that Dusty was trying to put Cozart in a position to do something good to help the confidence out as if batting him second in front of the best hitter in the game isn't enough already.

It was all part of Dusty's master plan. Tony bunting okay, Choo bunting strange.

Cingrani got a pretty quick jump from second base, so I would assume it was a called sac bunt.

Choo is an onbase machine. Sacrificing with someone that gets on base over 40% of the time makes me sad

I didn't miss it. I just didn't acknowledge it.

After my original post I felt 8 earned runs was wrong because Votto would have had a single and scored either way. So I kept going back to see if the official scorer corrected it, because I felt they were wrong........and they did.

I simply waited until they did to point it out. :thumbup:
