5 HR in 79 AB for Weak Winker.

Judy or whatever

I hate the Cardinals and their stupid fans

[kaldaniels]

I hope the Reds keep Pete Rose statue he my favorite player

Suspicions confirmed.

[Sea Ray]

I hope the Reds keep Pete Rose statue he my favorite player

Is this Wildman Walker???

[Tom Servo]

Jeez was Jesse running in quick sand

[kaldaniels]

I'm watching Winker's defense closely. Think he should have had that?

[kaldaniels]

Watching again I think he knew he didn't have a chance and was "laying up" on it to avoid a bad bounce.

Atta boy Quicksand Jesse!

[Tom Servo]

I'm watching Winker's defense closely. Think he should have had that?
I couldn't say for sure he should have had it but I'm confident that Schebler or Duvall would have been a LOT closer to its landing spot.

That was better.

Yeah he was full go on that one. Boom or bust try. Well done.

[membengal]

Nice catch.

[kaldaniels]

I know it can be controversial to dog Schebler but those 3 pitches he just swung at against a lackluster pitcher. Yeesh.

[Tony Cloninger]

Winker is confirming what we already knew. He can't play RF all the good.

[Honest Critic]

[kaldaniels]

The ball that dropped in was going to regardless and he made a nice catch. Why say that now?

[Chip R]

I'm watching Winker's defense closely. Think he should have had that?

I thought he should have. Don't know if Schebler would have had it. But he got to that 2nd ball for the 3rd out so maybe he read it wrong off the bat.

[Tony Cloninger]

It's like Bad Fundamentals and PutPeteIn had a baby.

Those few minutes before a ban are always fun and exciting.

[NC Reds]

Wow. That escalated quickly.

[kaldaniels]

1:5 odds he pops back up before the end of the night.

[JaxRed]

I'll always remember my first.............

[kaldaniels]

I'll always remember my first.............

I appreciate you leaving the post up and you stated "banned." Sometimes the mods whitewash history a bit too much.

[Chip R]

I'll always remember my first.............

Was that your first?

[kaldaniels]

1 out. Pitcher up. Men on 1st and 3rd.

Kind of a get out of jail free card for Mahle. I know the reasons for wanting the DH but I always like this scenario.

[JaxRed]

yep

[Tom Servo]

Tyler wyd


Also I missed the fun, that was quick work by the mods

[NC Reds]

Quality damage control

[Powel Crosley]

Good to see Mahle get through that tough inning with no runs allowed.

[Fil3232]

Where did that 2-2 pitch to Pham miss? Good comeback on 3-2 to get out of the inning. Hopefully he can get more efficient and go 5.

Ump completely missed it. Glad it didn't haunt.

[Sea Ray]

Ump completely missed it. Glad it didn't haunt.

Sure seems like the umps are squeezing our rookies in this series and the Cards know it. Seems as though every hitter is comfortable working the count to 3-2. Our rookies have enough trouble throwing strikes...getting squeezed by the umps makes it pretty much impossible

[Chip R]

yep

[NC Reds]

That shouldn't be a hit.

[BluegrassRedleg]

Ruled a hit. :laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:

[Tom Servo]

Cozart hasn't looked so hot on defense of late.

[Chip R]

Seems like Cozart was going to flip it to Peraza with his glove and may have tried to flip it before he caught it.

[DocRed]

Cozart's defense with his injury has been less than stellar....almost average IMO

[NC Reds]

Scheb was a little too anxious to hack 3-0. Not exactly a hitters pitch.

[DocRed]

End of Drew Storen this year.....hopefully forever as a Red.

[NC Reds]

Good inning for Mahle.

[DocRed]

MLB umpires stink....I could see he was safe in real time.

[BluegrassRedleg]

MLB umpiring is not very good right now.

[NC Reds]

Joey being Joey.

[NC Reds]

Geno!!!!

[BluegrassRedleg]

SALAMI for Suarez. :beerme:

[Tom Servo]

lol thank you Matheny for leaving the lefty in to face Suarez

[Chip R]

So, good challenge by Price?

[Big Klu]

[Chip R]

Payback by Mahle.

[Powel Crosley]

Another good inning from Mahle. I'd imagine the bullpen will be coming in since he's at 100 pitches.

[Mutaman]

Mahle bounced back nicely from his mediocre effort against the Mets.

[Kc61]

Wild prediction -

When the dust settles in Spring Training, when the injuries are accounted for, and the Reds have to put together an actual pitching staff next year - Kevin Shackleford will be there.

[NC Reds]

Shack was dealing that inning.

[Tom Servo]

Shack was dealing that inning.
He has looked good the last few weeks in a small sample size, no walks.

[Chip R]

He has looked good the last few weeks in a small sample size, no walks.

There was that one bad game but otherwise he's been all right. Of course he could also be the next Hoover/Jumbo/Wood.

[Kc61]

Shackleford had a fairly superb season at Louisville this season.

[Tom Servo]

Shackleford had a fairly superb season at Louisville this season.
Yeah but that's Louisville. Gonna need to see more than 8 innings before getting any hopes up.

[757690]

Cardinal defense is silly bad.

[Kc61]

Yeah but that's Louisville. Gonna need to see more than 8 innings before getting any hopes up.

Great year in Louisville. Tough start in big leagues. Now 7 consecutive scoreless outings in bigs. Then tonight a very good inning so far.

You can tell that the Reds see some potential. They use him regularly in the sixth inning of potential winning games now.

He has a chance.

[Chip R]

Error on the throw or on the "catch"? They gave it to Martinez even though the throw was wild. Of course after that call earlier in the game, I was surprised they even gave him an error at all.

[Tony Cloninger]

I want Votto to get his 100 Rs and RBI. Like Hamilton getting the SB title the last couple of years he gets close to doing both but then just seems to slow to a crawl. At least unlike Billy, Joey is not getting hurt. Yes I enjoy seeing a Red with Bold numbers showing they are a league leader or going over 100 in RS and RBI.

[Kc61]

Shack mows them down, with help of a DP.

Two good innings, nice outing for him.

[Fil3232]

I feel almost foolish for liking Shakelford's arm. That's what the Reds do to me. Fool me once...

[Mutaman]

Mahle has not given up a HR in four starts.

[WVRedsFan]

yepIt's what I get for being late for the party tonight. What on earth did he say? I've never seen a banning during a game thread, though I've felt some were justified.

[NC Reds]

Good play Geno.

[Chip R]

I swear, one of these nights I'm getting a legal pad and writing down all the dead time during a game. Probably not a Reds game cause I'm too invested in it. Probably not a Red Sox game either cause there's only so much paper.

[NC Reds]

Is Luke Ferrell the human victory cigar?

Not sure he would have been my choice. Hope I'm wrong.

[Chip R]

He's throwing strikes.

[NC Reds]

He's throwing strikes.

Yeah he is. Good to see.

[Banshee]

Wow, that seemed easy..

[Mutaman]

Surprised raisel wasn't called on for one of those two inning specials.

[kaldaniels]

Wild prediction -

When the dust settles in Spring Training, when the injuries are accounted for, and the Reds have to put together an actual pitching staff next year - Kevin Shackleford will be there.

Between Brian "sexual assault arrest" Shackleford and Rusty Shackleford I have a knee jerk negative reaction to any other Shacklefords.

[Sea Ray]

Wow, that seemed easy..

If they were only all this easy...

[Chip R]

I feel almost foolish for liking Shakelford's arm. That's what the Reds do to me. Fool me once...

Tis better to have loved and lost...

[WVRedsFan]

Reds win!

[BluegrassRedleg]

Beating STL never gets old.

[Sea Ray]

It was kinda a "run for the bus" after Suarez' home run. That's fine with me...

[Big Klu]

Tonight's Joe Nuxhall Star of the Game is Tyler Mahle, who pitched 5 innings allowing no runs on 4 hits with 4 K's to earn his first major-league win, and also was hit by a pitch and scored a run on Eugenio Suarez's grand slam after his hustle into second base overturned an out call to end the inning.

Tyler really battled tonight. To get a win while allowing no runs when you don't have your good command is quite the impressive feat for a rookie

[Big Klu]

On pace for 70-92.

I see him as the spiritual successor to Blake Wood.

[Tony Cloninger]

I'm with you and also would like Duvall to get to 100 RBI's too.

Yes him too. He made it last year. He is just running on fumes for over a month. He needs a zapper attached to his neck that goes off every time he swings at that low and away garbage.

Last time #Reds won a shutout where the first batter of the game homered was 7/6/12 in SD. Cozart hit leadoff HR and Reds won 6-0

Wasn't Brian Shackelford cleared of any wrongdoing?

[JaxRed]

Had his first post earlier in the day (new thread) bringing up the Rose Statue again. Then he started spamming here. The only one I remember was a Obama/Trump thing. Was trying to ban him but I hadn't done it before so it took a bit. It was pure trollism.
