GL scoring runs....we'll need it

[Kc61]

Need to get some lefty hitters in against tough Mets RHP pitchers. So O’Grady and Dietrich get a chance. Five of eight Reds position players today hit from left side (including switch hitter Barnhart).

David Bell said they sent home Freddy Galvis, Michael Lorenzen, Robert Stephenson, Kevin Gusman and Josh VanMeter -- all are sick. Just about everyone on the team has had the flu-like symptoms since the series in Seattle

Barnhart only hits left handed

[Ironman92]

I hate the Mets

[RedseatHR]

Where’s Marty?

[NebraskaRed]

Castillo yesterday, now Disco today had a 5 pitch first inning.

[texasdave]

For the second straight contest, the Reds starter retires the side on just 5 pitches in the first.

This is the MLB.com Free Game of the Day.

[Tadasimha]

Give it a ride, Geno!

Turned into a thrill ride but I'll take it

Not a good start for the Toddfather in the field

[Tom Servo]

Tough inning for Frazier

[NebraskaRed]

Barnhart's AB was a good example of a hitter trying to force something to happen rather than responding to the pitches that he sees.

[Tadasimha]

Small ball is fun

[Tom Servo]

Iglesias blooper, 2-0 Redlegs

- - - Updated - - -

come on O’Grady, what was that

[NebraskaRed]

2 runs but that still seemed like a missed opportunity

[Tadasimha]

Ugly but Dietrich kept the ball in front of him and got the out

[NebraskaRed]

took 4x as many pitches as the first inning, but Disco retires the side.

[NebraskaRed]

I wasn't happy seeing Ervin in the leadoff spot, and now he's 2 for 2.

[Tadasimha]

Should have had an out at 2nd, tucker

OGrady limping a bit after running into the wall

[redssince75]

Is there a kept baseball stat for productive out?

1st inning, bases loaded, Barnhart K (unproductive out), O'Grady pop up (unproductive out).

Just now men at 2nd and 3rd, Wheeler hits ground ball to 2nd that scores a run, moves runner to 3rd (productive out).

Not the same as RBI.

Just wondering.

[North]

I think #6 is getting a fine. :)

[NebraskaRed]

O'Grady is O'out of the game.

[Tadasimha]

Disco wins the 9 pitch battle with Cano for out #2 on a down and in swinging strike

[NebraskaRed]

It would be perfect if the last game of the season is a 1-run game (Reds win, of course).

[InsaneinthBrame]

I am so sick of seeing the offense score in the first and just go to sleep

[InsaneinthBrame]

Not a good start to this inning

[Tadasimha]

Disco making it tough to start the 5th - walk and single, mo out

[Tadasimha]

That's going to make it harder

[InsaneinthBrame]

Reds D today not helping

[Red Raindog]

Looks like a Dietrich hbp there

Very impressive job by Disco to keep his composure and limit the damage.

[Tadasimha]

Disco gets Alonso swinging on a ball that bounced in. Nice

[NebraskaRed]

Votto with a gentleman's triple (a double)

[Tadasimha]

Wow - huge bunch of mets fans down the left field line

[NebraskaRed]

More wasted opportunities

[RED VAN HOT]

Exhibit A. Why the Reds don't win one run games.

[Kc61]

More wasted opportunities

Can’t expect too much. The current lineup is awful.

[Red Raindog]

The magic beans that helped Dietrich early in the season are working no longer

classic Todd Frazier strikeout

[Tadasimha]

Amir is like that :rolleyes:

[Tadasimha]

Tucker letting the whole stadium know he's not happy

[Tadasimha]

Craig Kimbrel gave up two solo homeruns and the cards just finished off the cubs 9 to 8

[NebraskaRed]

Christian Colon delivers the RBI single.

A scenario every single one of us predicted back in March.

[JCM11]

Nearly a terrible base running mistake by Peraza as he could've been thrown out at third before the run scored.

He was being waved to third
And then home

Get Iggy with it - in a good way

Just saw the play. Peraza has definitely made a number of mistakes this season but he didn’t do anything wrong there.

The play was in front of him, and you have to know you can't get tagged out before the run scores. If he was being waved then that just shows both House and Peraza are clueless.

[JCM11]

Wow Rasiel touching 100.

[Tadasimha]

Free pizza on a 100 mph K

[Tom Servo]

We’re good again! :beerme:

[Tadasimha]

I think Raisel burned his hand with that 100 mph pitch!

ATOBTTR!

[Red Raindog]

Wow Rasiel touching 100.

Have to disagree

Runners were on the move
He has to follow the third base coach

[ScotlandRed]

Iglesias is such a frustrating pitcher. He’s been lights out recently but almost feel a bad stretch is due.

[JaxRed]

Another great game by bullpen
