[Tom Servo]

These hats and uniforms are uggo. Sorry.

[Reds Fanatic]

Cozart homers to left on the first pitch! 1-0 Reds

['69]

Yessir. 1st pitch.

[Tom Servo]

Cozart! :jump:

[Tom Servo]

Joey has perfected the art of grounding out to 2nd base. :/

[Reds Fanatic]

Votto and Phillips ground out. 2 outs.

[Reds Fanatic]

Bruce pops out to 3rd. 1-0 Reds mid 1st

[Reds Fanatic]

Leadoff homer by Blackmon. Tie game 1-1

[Tom Servo]

Seems about right.

Straily is susceptible to the long ball, could be a dangerous mix today in Coors.

[Reds Fanatic]

LeMahieu strikes out swinging

[Reds Fanatic]

Walk to Gonzalez

[Reds Fanatic]

Reynolds flies out to center.
Parra grounds out to 2nd. 1-1 after 1

[traderumor]

That's Votto's alter ego posting.

[Tom Servo]

RIP Minnesota Red/Bob. He died from a heart attack while on the toilet.

[Reds Fanatic]

Suarez now 0 for his last 25 ABs

[traderumor]

No foul ball for Bob either.

[Reds Fanatic]

Perfect bunt hit for Hamilton

- - - Updated - - -

Hamilton steals 2nd

[Reds Fanatic]

Intentional walk to Barnhart

[Reds Fanatic]

Straily strikes out swinging. 1-1 mid 2nd

['69]

I wonder why the rockies were starting to pitch to barnhart after the SB.

[Tom Servo]

I wonder if CarGo had a sociopath on RockiesZone wishing harm/death on him when he was hitting .212/.291/.321 after two months this time last year.

[Reds Fanatic]

2 Ks for Straily as Story strikes out swinging

[Reds Fanatic]

Descalso lines a single to right

[Reds Fanatic]

Garneau lines a single to left

[Reds Fanatic]

Lucky that ball went foul again. Bob would have had a stroke

6-3 DP to end the inning. 1-1 after 2

['69]

Who does Joe Bob emerge as next? Jim? :laugh:

[Ironman92]

Votto nearly with a defensive tootblan....if you will

['69]

Joe Bob Hehe must have alot of email addresses.

[Reds Fanatic]

Votto strikes out looking

[dougdirt]

What. The. Heck. Is. Happening. In. This. Thread?

[Reds Fanatic]

Phillips grounds out. 1-1 mid 3rd

[Reds Fanatic]

2-1 Rockies as Parra lines a hit off the wall in right

[Tom Servo]

Two out woes for Straily. Walk, bloop, single high off the wall nearly a HR.

[Tom Servo]

The funniest thing about you is that you think you're funny.
It's also funny that he had barely double digit followers on Twitter yet posted this garbage every day of his life.

[Reds Fanatic]

Story walks. Bases loaded

[Tom Servo]

uhhh...moment of silence in the middle of an inning? Okay.

['69]

Does Grande know the reason for Memorial Day? It's not to remember America, whatever that means.

[Big Klu]

uhhh...moment of silence in the middle of an inning? Okay.

3:00 p.m. local time.

[Reds Fanatic]

Descalso doubles in 3 runs. 5-1 Rockies

[Tom Servo]

Descalso of all people. Ugh.

[Reds Fanatic]

Long run by Bruce to get to that ball. 5-1 Rockies after 3

[Reds Fanatic]

Bruce lines a double to right

[Reds Fanatic]

Duvall homers to right center! 5-3 Rockies

[Tom Servo]

Duvall! :jump:

[Reds Fanatic]

First Red with 10 homers in a month since Bruce did it 3 years ago

- - - Updated - - -

Suarez lines a single to left

['69]

Suarez got a hit. :p

[dougdirt]

Someone's been drinking today, haven't they?

[Tom Servo]

Suarez lines a single to left
Finally snaps the 0fer

[redsfan4life67]

Maybe Suarez will get going a little now.

[Reds Fanatic]

Hamilton lines a single to left. 1st and 2nd

[redsfan4life67]

Good game for Billy.

[Reds Fanatic]

Parra makes a diving catch on the bloop to left

['69]

What the

[Reds Fanatic]

Wow. What was Suarez doing. A missed bunt attempt and Suarez is badly picked off 2nd

[NebraskaRed]

oh Suarez

[Tom Servo]

Awful.

[redsfan4life67]

And the base running nonsense just goes on and on. Unreal.

[Reds Fanatic]

It has been so long since Suarez was on base apparently he forgot how to run the bases

[Reds Fanatic]

Straily walks

[Tom Servo]

I'm wrong a lot, but I am feeling a vindicated in my repeated offseason statements that the Reds should give Duvall a season's worth of plate appearances due to his prodigious power.

[Reds Fanatic]

Everyone is safe. Almost a bad break as Cozart hit that off the pitcher. It went to Story who flipped it to 2nd but I guess he missed the bag. Bases loaded.

[tomnuetten]

is there a holiday in the us today? lots of day games today (I like it)... and ugly jerseys so I guess it has to do with military :rolleyes:

Votto with a ground rule double to center. 5-5!

JoeyNotto just soiled another diaper.

[Raisor]

It has to do with remembering soldiers who have died. You can roll your eyes at it if you want but some of us care about it.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memorial_Day

[Tom Servo]

Chris Welsh pointed out that Votto wasn't crouching in over the plate in that at-bat. I think more than the choking up that has contributed to the struggles.

[Big Klu]

Memorial Day is a day of remembrance for the military dead, especially for those who died while on active duty.

[Reds Fanatic]

Chris Welsh pointed out that Votto wasn't crouching in over the plate in that at-bat. I think more than the choking up that has contributed to the struggles.

Yes he is such a student of hitting that sometimes I think he is kind of overthinking this whole slump and making it even harder to get out of it

[Reds Fanatic]

Story boots the ball at short. 1st and 3rd. 6-5 Reds. I think that will be an infield hit as that was a tough play

[Reds Fanatic]

Bruce grounds out to 2nd. 6-5 Reds mid 4th

[tomnuetten]

no problem with the holiday... just think a sport game shouldn´t have anything to do with it. Athletes in military uniforms don´t help to reduce injured and killed soldiers (reducing the number of stupid wars would do it though...)

I´m no fan of those thinks because they often lead to more patriotism/nationalism, something that lead to more injured and dead soldiers within your country and other countries... but that is part of the politic forum => back to topic

the reds lead :)

[Reds Fanatic]

Great catch by Hamilton. 2 outs.

[Reds Fanatic]

LeMahieu lines a double to left center

[Reds Fanatic]

Gonzalez pops out to short. 6-5 Reds after 4

[Tom Servo]

Noooooo FS Ohio, don't tell the opponents how to pitch to Duvall.

So you can imply Memorial Day festivities at the ballpark somehow lead to more deaths of soldiers, and you just expect it to slide by with a "this is actually for the politics forum".

Ugh. I realize there are 2 sides on this but don't drop a bomb like that, no pun intended.

[Reds Fanatic]

Raining hard now at the park.

Duvall strikes out swinging

obviously a single day of military uniforms won´t have that big of an affect.. but the sum of those things I witnessed in my us vacation and via media is (imo) way to much... why do you have to sing the anthem before to sport teams play eachother? same thing with god bless america? why showing us flags every time you can (some of them being paid by the government)? why showing soldiers over and over again during sport games...

I don´t like it... you can obviously do whatever you want => doesn´t mean it is something smart/good or I have to like it ;)

hope raining stops soon...

I watched a lot of Bundesliga when I was stationed in Germany, thought they sung an anthem before matches...

['69]

Straily finishes the 6th with 99 pitches, 6-5 Reds

[tomnuetten]

I watched a lot of Bundesliga when I was stationed in Germany, thought they sung an anthem before matches...

no, the only anthems they sing is the "anthem" of the home team... like Stern des Südens in munich or Liverpools You´ll never walk alone...

only time they sing the national anthem is before national teams play eachother (which makes atleast some sense) and before the german cup final but that´s it...

['69]

Votto HR!

[Tony Cloninger]

In all seriousness .... signing God Bless America when there is no actual war going on....every single game is not necessary. I am at a ballgame....it is take me out to the ballgame. It is getting away from any politics.
I understand during a War. I understand the need for New York to do it.

There are still American troops that are dying in the field. Most recently just s couple of weeks ago.

Reds Media Relations ‏@RedsPR 3m3 minutes ago
Votto becomes the seventh player in Reds history, since 1900, with at least 1,000 hits and 200 HR.

Can you name the others?

[BCubb2003]

It makes me wistful to think that Votto will someday pass the great Reds names of the past like Eric Davis, Ken Griffey Jr. and Jay Bruce.

[Tony Cloninger]

I did not say you do not honor soldiers. Singing GBA like WW II or even Vietnam is going on is not something that I think is necessary during a baseball game every day.

Frustrating thing about Wood is he has the stuff to succeed in the big leagues.

Let's Lynch the Landlord is the best Disco Punk song I ever heard.

[Kc61]

Frustrating thing about Wood is he has the stuff to succeed in the big leagues.

I thought he was a harder thrower when Refs acquired him. Wood misses bats but has control issues. Still he's a pro, got out of that jam nicely.

['69]

Hey you!

[BluegrassRedleg]

Let's Lynch the Landlord is the best Disco Punk song I ever heard.

What do you know? You're a Chicken$#!t Conformist.

Sounds like you need a few rounds with Police Truck.

Are seeing a lower average velocity? He has hit 97 more than a few times, iirc.

[BCubb2003]

Billy 3 hits

Let's hope that nickname sticks.

[BluegrassRedleg]

Nobody else in MLB turns that into a double. :p

Miguel Castro apparently auditioning for a spot in The Reds bullpen

Already served my time for Stealing People's Mail.

[redsfan4life67]

This isn't saying much but if the Reds ever get all the pitchers off the d.l and Reed and Stephenson gets the call. Wood along with Cingrani will or should be the only 2 guys in current pen still with the club.

[Tony Cloninger]

Already served my time for Stealing People's Mail.

So what you're saying is that you've been to school for a year or two and you think you've seen it all?

[Tom Servo]

Miguel Castro apparently auditioning for a spot in The Reds bullpen
I'd still take him, he has a chance to be really good.

He is pretty awful today though.

[Tony Cloninger]

I know it is Coors field but seeing Joey and Eugenio hit some bombs feels good.

[BluegrassRedleg]

So what you're saying is that you've been to school for a year or two and you think you've seen it all?

School wasn't for me. Too many Terminal Preppies.

[redsfan4life67]

Agree about Castro could be really good down the road.

[redsfan4life67]

Ivan getting in on the fun.

[tomnuetten]

Agree about Castro could be really good down the road.

I kind of wonder why they let him pitch that long though...

[Tom Servo]

Who feels safe with a 5 run lead with 2 innings left in Coors?

[corkedbat]

A lot of people have been talking about Joey choking up on the bat. I think his problem is him choking up on his pants. Roll them britches down Joey! Not a good look.

[redsfan4life67]

[QUOTE=Tom Servo;3478451]Who feels safe with a 5 run lead with 2 innings left in Coors?[/QUOTE

Ross and Tony gonna seal the deal. Probably won't be pretty but a win is a win is a win at this point.:D

No. No. No. No. No.

Not a fan of the pants up to the knees or down to the ankles. I am old so i like the BRM look on the pants. To me that is how they should always be worn.

Just thought of this for some reason. He reminds me a lot of Octavio Dotel.

Thanks fer nuthin today, Tony.

[Crumbley]

So hard to believe how effective this guy was at one point, I thought his downside was lights out reliever.

[corkedbat]

I'm hoping that Cingrani can inexplicably put together a nice streak and somebody (anybody) will want to give us something for him.

[Wonderful Monds]

Rockie like a hurricane!

[The Operator]

So hard to believe how effective this guy was at one point, I thought his downside was lights out reliever.Same here.

I've been one of his biggest supporters on this site but I've abbooouuut seen enough. Sad thing is, there's nobody good to take his place.

[WVRedsFan]

I think what upsets me most is he was allowed to allow three runs before anyone made a move to talk to him. I know. Who cares, but it seems crazy to me.

[Tom Servo]

We're good again! :beerme:

[Kc61]

Every time Cingrani looks like he has adapted to the reliever role, an outing like this comes along. Sometimes I think he needs more rest. Other times I think he needs more work.

If he doesn't improve, eventually he'll just lose his job to better guys. Too bad, but he has had his chances.

[Wonderful Monds]

Won 2 of the last 3. I don't care who it's against, I'll count that as a series victory.

[Raisor]

I think what upsets me most is he was allowed to allow three runs before anyone made a move to talk to him. I know. Who cares, but it seems crazy to me.

There's only so many arms available in the bullpen. It's not like there are any better alternatives.

[Wonderful Monds]

I remember thinking in like 2013 that our rotation around now would end up looking something like...

Latos
Stephenson
Cingrani
What's his name who was supposed to be the next Jonny Cueto but instead ended up sucking and got released
Maybe Guillon I can't remember who'd be 5th

oops

[Big Klu]

On pace for 54-108.

[Tony Cloninger]

I guess the "closer" must "close." Stupid.

More like a major league pitcher with his stuff should pitch better than that?

Yeeeeeep. Whiffed on that projection. :lol:

[WVRedsFan]

More like a major league pitcher with his stuff should pitch better than that?Yeah, but to let him get hit like that--time after time, I thought someone, the pitching coach maybe, should go out and say something in the 15 seconds or so, but it never happened. Luckily, Price removed him before it got any worse. I'll be the first to say that I do not understand Tony Cingrani's struggles.

[Raisor]

I mean what are they going to say? Stop sucking?

[Wonderful Monds]

I mean I've been as critical as anyone of the whole franchise

But Cingrani wouldn't be the first pitcher to have a bad game at Denver.

[The Operator]

Yeeeeeep. Whiffed on that projection. :lol:It happens.

I remember thinking Ty Howington and Ricardo Aramboles would be vaulting The Reds to the 2005ish playoffs. Ugh. Pitching prospects.

[WVRedsFan]

I mean what are they going to say? Stop sucking?I give up. If it's so damn important that you come back at me everytime I post something, carry on. Man, I've seen managers and pitching coaches go out to 1) stall until another pitcher gets ready, 2) slow them down and make suggestions, or 3) take them out of a game, so if that' not good enough an answer, I'm sorry,

[Big Klu]

Congratulations once again to Joey Votto, who became the tenth player in Reds history to hit 200 home runs!

But it's easy to move from starter to reliever. It's like falling out of bed ;)

Yeah, but in Cingrani's case I'm not sure his role matters. Frankly, I just think he never fully recovered from injury, never got his top stuff back.

Cingrani in 2013 was such an effective pitcher. I thought he was just sensational back then.
