In Servo's honor...

We're still good!

O
Did they do the flashing lights after Winker’s HR? It sure looked like it.

I don’t think they did but I’m not sure

That 8 game losing streak is far in the rear mirror now. Reds pass Cubs to be 4th in the standing, 3.5 behind the Brewers. I knew they weren't that bad. We have the pitching!

[NeilHamburger]

Nice game. The starting pitching on this team has been simply incredible. If the offense gets going it could be a fun summer.

Also, I think this team has a chance to really take off when they get Senzel and Scooter into the lineup.

I just watching it again on the MLB app. There was definitely some flickering of the lights - but could it have been done in house by FSOH?

Was it fireworks?

Was it fireworks?

Way too much time spent on this issue (ha!) but it seemed to be pulsating.

They did the blinky light thing for all three home runs by both teams.

I'm not a fireworks guy, but that was probably the most impressive display I've ever witnessed at a baseball game (or anywhere else, for that matter).

Pitching might eventually come down a few levels but our hitting will also get better so I think it'll even out in the wash. It's always good to beat the Cardinals and we got ourselves out of some bad situations tonight. Garrett striking out Wainwright with the bases loaded was what saved the game.

You could tell the players took notice as well.

Along with Castillo, Garrett is who I’ve been most impressed/satisfied seeing perform well. That nasty slider works really well out of the pen.

[WrongVerb]

Big hat tip to WrongVerb who has been calling for the Reds to add Dietrich for awhile.

Thank you. He fits this team perfectly.

[RiverfrontRed]

If Puig gets the bat going and if Votto ever gets the long ball going... Watch out!

Why on earth was Duke even brought into this game.

5-2

I shudder every time I see him take the mound. Surely someone at triple A is better than him...

[Larry Schuler]

Are, uh, the Reds not terrible now?

[Tom Servo]

What a nice win that was. And the bats still haven't really gotten going.

Best win I can remember in a while. Really good game. Winker's oppo power gives a lot of hope. If a guy can hit it out the other way with some regularity, that is real power. Roark battled like always and kept the team in the game and I was impressed by Garrett. He still can be a little nerve-racking , but his pitching was quality. The best play of the night was Schebler punching the ball into left field with a runner on third. Watching Puig throw is fun.

Missed the game due to a social engagement (fundraiser dinner/auction for local hiv testing and support org) but enjoyed watching the score change as I checked online.


Yep we’re getting no hit and losing by several runs tonight.

This aged well :laugh:

I need to see success vs lefties over about 50 PA’s vs lefties to say that

[Alabama]

The boys are showing some resiliency, I love it. Right back in this thing. Need Senzel, Wood, and Gennett to come on with it then we are cooking with gas.

I don't know. Seems like he did all right last night. Came in with a 2-1 lead and runners on base in the 8th inning, and got a big double play to end the inning. Then allowed a leadoff HR in the 9th with a 5-1 lead (no big harm there).
