[TheRedScare]

No TV tonight stinks

[Ron Madden]

No TV tonight stinks

OH No! :(

I hope Marty's not too cantankerous tonight...I was lookin forward to watching the game

[Ironman92]

No TV tonight stinks

Well damn

What's up with that? I just scrolled through the channel guide and thought it was a mistake.

[TheRedScare]

I hate having to resort to internet streams to watch games. Although, I pay for MLB.tv, so I don't feel too bad about it. It's pretty ridiculous that you can't watch games in market that aren't even on TV.

[cumberlandreds]

I am watching Padres broadcast with Dick Enberg doing the game.

[Tadasimha]

No bad thing, imho

[Tom Servo]

Cozart triple! Aided by the Padres outfielders crashing into each other.

[Tom Servo]

Why does Baseball Reference says Alex Dickerson's nickname is 'Grandpa' lol

[Ron Madden]

SF from Jay Bruce

Reds 1
Padres 0

[Tom Servo]

Bruce hammers a ball to center, caught but it's a sac fly for Jay.

1-0 Redlegs

[Tadasimha]

Billy needs to learn to bunt for twohttp://m.mlb.com/cutfour/2016/05/13/177896456/kbos-lee-dae-hyung-bunts-for-a-double

- - - Updated - - -

Looks like Edwin is in mid season form

[Tom Servo]

BP RBI single after a Duvall single

2-0 Redlegs

[Ron Madden]

Phillips singles.. Votto scores Duvall to 3rd

2-0 Reds

[Tom Servo]

A rare Suarez double!

4-0 Redlegs

[Ron Madden]

Where is Big Klu ???

[Tom Servo]

Wish I had confidence in Finnegan with a 4-0 lead, but he's been reaaaaallllly bad his last four starts (14 strikeouts, 12 walks, 10 HRs! in his last 17.1 innings).

Hopefully he ends that skid tonight.

[Ron Madden]

Thanks for the PBP Tom I appreciate it

[Tom Servo]

Damn, couple of borderline ball calls to walk Wil Myers. Followed by a Matt Kemp single.

[Tadasimha]

A double play ball would be a good thing right now, Finny

[Ron Madden]

Is RedsZone running slow for anyone else?

[Tom Servo]

Is RedsZone running slow for anyone else?

A little, obviously the trade stuff is to blame.

[Tom Servo]

Good job to strike out Bethancourt after falling behind 3-0. One more out to go.

And walks the next guy on 4 pitches. Sigh.

[Ron Madden]

Marty getting down on Finnegan already...

[Tom Servo]

Norris hammers a line drive but snagged by Suarez for out 3.

Long inning. I do think if Finnegan has another poor start that the Reds need to make a move with how he's been getting his brains beaten in.

[lnn6574]

He sounds like a bullpen guy on the radio, as much as he looks like a bullpen guy on TV.

Yeah, I don't think he's ever pitched this many innings, maybe he's hit the wall..

[50YrRedsFan]

Jackson has a good start, but I wonder which starter will have the worse game.

[Tom Servo]

Cozart stays hot with a two out single.

[Tadasimha]

Cozart on fire tonight!

Billy hacking - patience!

[Tom Servo]

The shift gets Votto to end the frame.

[GADawg]

If Cozart is dealt we're all gonna miss the effortless looking defense at SS

[Ron Madden]

Good inning for Finnegan..

[Tom Servo]

Clean inning with a pair of Ks for Finnegan in the 2nd.

[Tadasimha]

Was going to complement Finnegan on a nice, easy 2nd inning - until he went 8 pitches to the pitcher!

[GADawg]

How is it possible that "we're" possibly heading for for 9 wins in 13 games with lefties hitting 3 and 4 back to back?

[Tom Servo]

Duvall one out triple off the wall!

[Ron Madden]

Cowboy says Duvall pops one up to RF...

Turns out to be a triple off the wall for Duvall...

[WVPacman]

I just got on and wanted to see what the deal was with the Reds not on tv tonight?

[Tom Servo]

BP can't deliver with the runner on 3rd with one out as he K's.

Suarez grounds out to end the inning.

[Kc61]

The demise of Adam Duvall as a hitter has thus far been greatly exaggerated.

[GADawg]

The Padres "sideline" reporter is bad ass....just sayin'

[WVPacman]

If Cozart is dealt we're all gonna miss the effortless looking defense at SS

How old is cozart?

[Ron Madden]

The demise of Adam Duvall as a hitter has thus far been greatly exaggerated.

Adam has a good chance to hit for the cycle tonight....:beerme:

[Tom Servo]

How old is cozart?

Turns 31 in a few weeks.

[GADawg]

How old is cozart?

Is that rhetorical? Are they planning on competing next year or 2019?

[Tom Servo]

Finnegan gets ahead 0-2 on Myers and can't put him away, runs it full and Myers doubles.

[Tom Servo]

I've lost track of how many 3-0 counts Finnegan has gotten into tonight.

Walks Kemp on a full count.

Double play ends the inning. Padres announcers a bit generous in regards to describing how hard that ball was hit.

[Mutaman]

has the feel of one of those games from the Dunn era- score early and then sit back and watch the other guys get back in the game and go onto win.

[Ron Madden]

4-6-3 DP ends the inning..

Reds 4
Padres 0

I have a bad feeling that if Finnegan hasn't already hit the wall he's gettin pretty close to it..

[Ron Madden]

Billy singles to CF

[Tom Servo]

Two out single for Billy.

Cozart puts good wood on one by Padres CFers Jankowski is pretty good out there and runs it down to end the inning.

[TheRedScare]

I'd trade losing 20-0 for Bruce staying healthy in this game. Him making it out healthy is the biggest thing IMO.

[Banshee]

Good inning by Finny. Seems like he's trying to throw a changeup, and it's moving a lot away from the righties, but it's landing around 90mph.. At least he's missing w/ it outside the zone. If that's just a new grip FB, that thing's moving like a whiffle ball.

[TheRedScare]

One of the Padres broadcasters is talking about how he'd pound Votto away with how much he chokes up without realizing that's exactly what Joey wants them to do.

[Tom Servo]

Stop calling him "DeScafeeni", Dick Enberg.

[westofyou]

That's Mark Grant, played on Giants / Pads in late 80s

[Ron Madden]

Phillips doubles Bruce to 3rd..

[Banshee]

Kemp gave BP a look to kill after Phillips picked the extra base, lol!

- - - Updated - - -

Suarez: double machine!


Doh, just a single, E got jobbed.

[Ron Madden]

Suarez doubles Bruce & Phillips score

6-0 Reds

[Tom Servo]

I know this last calendar year has been rough for us, but I'm still glad we aren't the Padres.

[Ron Madden]

I've seen my share of down seasons but I'm Proud To Be A Reds Fan...:)

[Big Klu]

Marty thinks the way the Reds are handling Peraza is questionable at best. He thinks there is no reason Peraza couldn't see more action giving the regulars rest, but if he isn't going to play here then he needs to go back to Louisville.

I actually agree with him on this one.

[Tom Servo]

Nice quick inning for Finnegan, needed it.

[westofyou]

I know more Padre fans than Reds fans out here, they are a combination of Eeyore and Rabbit, sad and anxious.

I completely agree with him, I think it's incredibly dumb the way they are handling Peraza.

[Big Klu]

Where is Big Klu ???

Present. :)

Glad to see you here Big Klu...

[westofyou]

Handling him like a team from 80s, not making the best if his time on the field, not managing his time. If they think he's up here now then it's best he get in, otherwise he's that 30 k boat in your driveway in Utah

[Big Klu]

I just got on and wanted to see what the deal was with the Reds not on tv tonight?

Not on the TV schedule. Maybe they thought the ratings would be down with the late West Coast start.

[Tom Servo]

Damn millennials waving their phones for some reason at Petco.


Votto robbed of a possible base hit.

[Tom Servo]

Bruce K's to end the inning, Billy was on 2nd with no outs but the Reds couldn't get him around.

Still 6-0 tho.

[WrongVerb]

Bruce caught a fly ball in right. See, he can play defense.

Nice play by Suarez to even make that close at first. He's coming along at 3b for sure.

[Banshee]

3 DP's thrown by Finny, wiggles off the hook again.

[Tom Servo]

A third double play to end the 6th!

[Tom Servo]

Geno with a two out walk, nice night for him.

[WrongVerb]

Barnhart looks like a guy who lost the zone he was in. Hopefully he can get it back.

[Banshee]

This ump must have dinner reservations early tonight. Strikezone is HUUGE.

[Ron Madden]

Reds 6
Padres 0

Middle of the 7TH

[Big Klu]

Solid outing by Finnegan tonight.

[Tom Servo]

Tyler Holt is hitting .093/.152/.093 since early June lol.

[WrongVerb]

This ump's strike zone is getting more misshapen by the batter.

[Tom Servo]

Lorenzen with back to back K's to start the 7th.

Strikes out the side!

[Banshee]

Great inning by Lorenzen, K's the side. FB movement into the righties, curve delta of 12 mph(84) and sharp, nice!

[Ron Madden]

Lorenzen strikes out the side in the 7TH!!!

Still 6-0 Reds

[Big Klu]

Tyler Holt is hitting .093/.152/.093 since early June lol.

None of the bench guys are hitting, but then again none of them are getting any regular (or even semi-regular) AB's. The only one who is even doing close to OK is Cabrera, and he's also the only one who sees the field with any kind of regularity.

Yeah in the grand scheme of things it's not too important, and hitting off the bench is hard, but that line is really bad for Price's go-to pinch hitter.

[Big Klu]

Lately, Ivan Jr. has been his go-to guy as a PH.

[Tom Servo]

Four straight strikeouts for Lorenzen.

[TheRedScare]

4 Ks in a row for Mikey L

[Big Klu]

Another easy inning for Lorenzen.

[Ron Madden]

Reds have Turned Two 4 times tonight!!!

[Tom Servo]

Lorenzen allows a single and gets a DP, the fourth of the night, to end the 8th.

6-0 Redlegs with one inning left.

[Tom Servo]

DatDude with a pair of doubles tonight. Still wondering if he'll hit another HR this year tho.

[Banshee]

That Jankowski can run. Not Billy fast, but pretty darned good, robbed Eugenio.

[Tom Servo]

Jankowski been playing great defense all night, robs Suarez of a possible extra base hit.

[WrongVerb]

Don't look now, but Suarez is turning into one heckuva player.

[Ron Madden]

Marty and Jeff say Suarez was robbed on a fine play by SD CF'er

[WrongVerb]

DatDude with a pair of doubles tonight. Still wondering if he'll hit another HR this year tho.

Quietly becoming trade bait? Reds would have to eat some of his salary and of course 10/5 comes into play, but it's a thought.

[Ron Madden]

Don't look now, but Suarez is turning into one heckuva player.

And he's really still just a Kid...

[TheRedScare]

NL record for consecutive games with a homer on the line

[Tom Servo]

Padres fans leaving the ballpark don't seem to know the Reds bullpen reputation. 6 runs is nothin.

[Ron Madden]

C'mon Wood Two more outs!!!!

[TheRedScare]

Wood's stuff looks good tonight

[WrongVerb]

LOL Padre TV broadcaster claims that without shift, batters are hitting .311, and with shift they're hitting .300. Other broadcaster calls him on that, says major league baseball hitters altogether are not hitting over .300. Needs to check his research.

My guess is that's BABIP.

[Ron Madden]

C'mon Wood!!! One more out!!!

Yeah, I was about to post that the other guy doesn't seem to know that batters strikeout, foul out, or hit homers.

[Roy Tucker]

Thanks for pulling the late shift guys.

[cumberlandreds]

Mark Grant is no Merlin Olsen (or Bud Collins).

No but I still think he's better to listen to than most analyst. He at least makes it fun.
