No Cozart, No Duvall, No Barnhart. Probably means we will score 12 runs tonight.

Still cannot understand why Holt is getting this PT. All he does is strike out. I'd much rather see Waldrop get some ABs. Atleast if he connects, it has a chance to go over the wall.

Yeah, the Reds' wasting PAs on Holt makes me sad.

Greetings from sect. 111.

Holt went over and shook hands with the 3b ump pre game and schmoozed him up.

Why are the Reds wearing red?

Dan Straily likes the red jerseys. (He has a good record when wearing them.) It's a superstition thing.

Seems to be working, nice inning for Straily w/ 2K's, 3 through 2 innings.

Ramon Cabrera channels his father, Japanese League slugger Alex Cabrera, and crushes a three-run homer to the RF Moon Deck!

I said "what the hell?"

I recommend the Listerman Pre-prohibition lager. A fine ballpark brew.

I think Ichiro's bat has slowed way down.

Straily is flat out dealing tonight. Changeup is beautiful, slider not hanging(so far..).

Roy Tucker
08-18-2016, 08:11 PM
Straily is a pitcher. Changes speeds, angles, location.

Fernandez on the other hand throws noticeable heat.

Billy again does something that literally no one else could do.

I think Ichiro's bat has slowed way down.

But also still hitting with a higher average than Joey Votto the hottest hitter on the planet.

Straily making it look easy tonight, Marlins off stride nearly every AB.

Tonight is the observation of the end of my 64th year of walking this planet under an August moon at GABP.

Celebrating at the Reds game with a couple cold beers, a hot dog, and bag of peanuts and the good and patient Mrs. Tucker, spouse of 31 years.

I might just have another beer.

So why is Price out to talk to Jumbo?

Jumbo :(

Jumbo sucked. Straily doesn't go deep into games but it sure seems like he misses out on a lot of should be wins.

So they score 5 off Fernandez with Strailey on the mound and they're blowing it.

I think Jumbo's time with the Reds is about done. When they can't use Lorenzen and Inglesias, it's the soft white underbelly of the Reds bullpen.

Great play by Hechavarria

Billy not stealing here is unacceptable

And that's how you pitch Phillips

Roy Tucker

Augh. Really needed a base knock there.

Jeff Piecoro, the big toe IS the first toe.

With Jumbo pitching you should have switched to something stronger.

Iglesias in for the save!

I thought it looked like a good catch. He might have snowconed it, but it was good.

Tom Servo

Quick 1-2-3 for Iggy for the save! We're still good! :beerme:

On pace for 69-93.

Iggy nails down the save w/ ease. Been a while since I've felt good about the reds chances in the 9th(Chappy). Nice series against a quality team.

Reds saves this season:

Cingrani (15)
Iglesias (2)
Ohlendorf (2)

This was the third straight start by Dan Straily where he hasn't walked a batter, and he has walked just two over his last 5 starts (31 innings).

Great to see.

I thought Straily was a good pickup this spring but he has been much better than I ever thought. I thought he would be a good middle reliever with spot starts. So far he has been very good. Doesn't ever go deep into games but gives a solid six innings most nights. Fourth place is in sight and on a clear day third place is in sight.
