6-5 REds vs. George's Redbirds

[REDSEER]

Lopez doubles......well at least we are gonna get Jr. up......

[Tornon]

Wasn't there a better pinch hitter than Valentin?

I am pretty sure Valentin has been our best pinch hitter.. around .300 or so

[saboforthird]

Lopez doubles to LCF. Nice to see Felipe using all parts of the field. Let's get some runs!

[fisch11]

Felipe groovin' it tonight. That's gonna bring Jr. up barrin a freak DP.

[OldRightHander]

Tying run at the plate...:pray:

[Tornon]

Aurilia takes a walk

[spaethc]

nice "professional" at-bat by Rich

[fisch11]

Jr, Jr, Jr,......

[saboforthird]

GREAT at-bat by Aurilia. Runners on first and second for Junior. :thumbup:

[Tornon]

Freel pinch running for Aurilia

[redlegs2370]

Can Jr. stay out of DP?

[Tornon]

Wild pitch moves the runners up, 3-2 to Griffey

[redlegs2370]

Wild pitch, stay out of DP

[saboforthird]

Junior at the plate with runners on second and third now. Thank God. Come on, Junior at least a sac fly.

[saboforthird]

Man, at first I thought it might be one of those very high flyballs that turns into a HR. :D

[captainmorgan07]

junior has to get it done here i have no faith in dunn

[Tornon]

Griffey.. GONE!!! 8-7 Reds

[spaethc]

Junior!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[BUTLER REDSFAN]

whooooooooooooooooooooo-hooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

[redlegs2370]

Jr. HR Reds lead 8-7!

[JohhnyBench1001]

Jr.....................jr......................... ......jr........jr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[saboforthird]

JUNIOR HOMERS!!!!!!! 8-7 Reds. :D :D :D

[BUTLER REDSFAN]

now please how about some insurance

[captainmorgan07]

how bout ken griffey i say he's an all-star

[fisch11]

Jrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr rr!

[jimbo]

Wahoooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!

What a shot by Junior. I think I just woke up my neighbors.

[spaethc]

man that is such a sweet swing :jump:

[redlegs2370]

Has there been more HR's hit at new Busch stadium this year, than at GAB?

[Tornon]

Dunn takes a walk

[MaineRed]

THAT is why you don't trade Griffey!

[gilpdawg]

And that..my friends, is why OBP is mucho importanto. Solo shots turn into 3 run blasts. And Dunn follows up with a walk.

[captainmorgan07]

i just woke up all my neighborhood i just ran out the door jumped all my steps ran in my neighbors house also a reds fan and was like junior just went yard

[redlegs2370]

junior has to get it done here i have no faith in dunn
I was sitting on my couch thinking the same thing!

[Tornon]

Isringhausen is done

[captainmorgan07]

hopefully the coffey is warming

[KoryMac5]

Let's have so more threads about what JR can't do. He's awesome a true legend playing on our team.

[captainmorgan07]

that man deserves and all star start

[MaineRed]

I had a good feeling when they showed that Izzy had thrown almost 100 pitches in the last week.

Boy is Griffey dialed in right now.

[jimbo]

THAT is why you don't trade Griffey!

Exactly.

[saboforthird]

I know we shouldn't count our chickens before they hatch, but so far this year has felt like a magical one for us Reds fans, I think. With Pujols down it seems like the Reds want close the gap ASAP.

[Tornon]

Brad Thompson in to pitch

[BUTLER REDSFAN]

did anyone check on grande to see how he's doing?

[saboforthird]

i just woke up all my neighborhood i just ran out the door jumped all my steps ran in my neighbors house also a reds fan and was like junior just went yard

I woke the baby up and scared one of our dogs just out behind the trailer. Eventually I'm going to learn not to wake up the baby, we're 15 days into this thing.

[BUTLER REDSFAN]

if we were to lose this one in the bottom of the ninth after that homerun...........:cry:

[REDSEER]

did anyone check on grande to see how he's doing?
:laugh: :laugh:

[MaineRed]

Way to go Lopez and Aurillia as well.

Maybe Narron knew what he was doing with RA in the two hole.

[jimbo]

Amazing how some will still say that Junior is not even the best player on the team. Oh yeah, and he's a poor defender.

[saboforthird]

did anyone check on grande to see how he's doing?

It seems like eternity since he said something. :laugh:

[MaineRed]

Yeah, I am watching the Cardinals feed. Just what was George's reaction?

[Tornon]

Kearns grounds into a 6-4-3. 8-7 Reds middle of 9

[fisch11]

Hopefully Coffey has got his good stuff tonight.

[Tornon]

Todd Coffey in to pitch
Perez(in for Luna last inning) leads off

[gilpdawg]

did anyone check on grande to see how he's doing?
Surprisingly, Georgy sounded pretty excited. He's a Griffey fan too you know. If LaRue or someone had hit that, he would have been bored sounding.

Welsh screamed like a little girl on contact. :)

[fisch11]

Yeah, I am watching the Cardinals feed. Just what was George's reaction?

I'm gonna guess in his boy scout scream, "How bout this?! Did he get enough?! Yes, he did! Jr, how bout that?!..............Jr. comes up big time in the 9th inning......"

[spaethc]

Coffey better not blow this, we have been in too many situations like this vs. the Cards, I don't know if I can handle us blowing another one to them!

[Tornon]

Note this.. Edwin in as a defensive replacement for RA

[Tornon]

Perez grounds to Phillips, 1 out

[captainmorgan07]

shoulda kept freel in

[Tornon]

Eckstein grounds to Lopez, 2 out

[BUTLER REDSFAN]

here's that 2 out thing again

[spaethc]

we gotta get Rodriguez, I want no part of Rolen.

[captainmorgan07]

gotta get tacughi here

[Tornon]

*note* Freel is in for Dunn.. forgot RA was pinch run for

[Tornon]

John Rodriguez to pinch hit

[MaineRed]

I had to look it up to see if my gut was right that Kearns hits into a boatload of double plays and it was. He is now tied for second in the league with 10.

He is having a great year though, don't get me wrong. I'll take his production but boy those twin killings hurt.

[GOREDSGO32]

1 more out .. its about time the pendulum swings the other way and we get some late inning wins for a change.

[captainmorgan07]

strike one

[Cedric]

Note this.. Edwin in as a defensive replacement for RA

Nah, Freel came in for Rich to pinch run.

[captainmorgan07]

one more strike

[BUTLER REDSFAN]

yessssssssss

[Tornon]

Rodriguez Ks swinging, reds win 8-7!! 4-0 in June

[spaethc]

REDS WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:beerme:

[Cedric]

John Rodriguez to pinch hit

Didn't see this one, you caught yourself :)

[GOREDSGO32]

Reds win! Cut the standings down to 2 ... 5 game win streak.

[captainmorgan07]

and this one belongs to the reds 2 out of first heck of a game for junior

[fisch11]

What a win! Where's all those pessimistic people at that said this was over in the 7th?!

[gilpdawg]

I'm gonna guess in his boy scout scream, "How bout this?! Did he get enough?! Yes, he did! Jr, how bout that?!..............Jr. comes up big time in the 9th inning......"
That's pretty close.:)

[Red Taylor]

My dad let me stay up tonight to post on Redzone, so I'm saying go Junior. And my other favorite, go Adam. Go reds.

[MaineRed]

Sir Ken!

[captainmorgan07]

My dad let me stay up tonight to post on Redzone, so I'm saying go Junior. And my other favorite, go Adam. Go reds.
get used to alot of late nites on here hopefully into october

[jimbo]

Gotta love it. Junior is showing just how much this team needs him, and that he is still an All-Star.

[KoryMac5]

Statement win tonight for the Reds!

[captainmorgan07]

junior first ballot hall of famer no questions asked

[redlegs2370]

Great win and another reason why a guy like Jr. is so valuable. I think people are starting to see now what a clutch player he is. As long as Reds can stay in the hunt I think we will see more of those kind of hits.

[redram]

This is a game we lose last year. What a HUGE WIN for this Team. Could be the start to something special this year. That was FUN to watch. GREAT WINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

[redlegs2370]

junior first ballot hall of famer no questions asked
You bet! Do you think he will go in as a Red?

[captainmorgan07]

on sportscenter now

[redsfanfalcon]

Anybody see the MLB.com? It says the Reds won 12-3. What game was that guy watching that was doing the stats?

[redsfan4445]

THAT is why you don't trade Griffey!

AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

[saboforthird]

Still a long way to go in the season, but the Reds had the Cardinals down earlier this season.....lets close the gap to 1 game tomorrow. :beerme:

[saboforthird]

Anybody see the MLB.com? It says the Reds won 12-3. What game was that guy watching that was doing the stats?

Here's another one. Yesterday Yahoo Sports was saying that Junior had hit an "inside the park homerun to deep left field". :eek:

[Redus]

Griffey still Rules! Way to go Reds. Now send Rick White packing.

[redlegs2370]

Coffey better not blow this, we have been in too many situations like this vs. the Cards, I don't know if I can handle us blowing another one to them!

I was sitting there thinking of the ghost of Danny Graves past and the Mothers Day masacare. This was definitely a step in the right direction.

[gilpdawg]

Anybody see the MLB.com? It says the Reds won 12-3. What game was that guy watching that was doing the stats?
Says that on espn.com too. Guessing the Stats Inc. stringer hit the wrong button or something. Funnily enough, the "how they scored" thing on espn is accurate.

[spaethc]

ummm did Jr. just give Jim Day a cup check? I wasnt paying close attention but here is what I saw. Day ends interview all of the sudden says "owww" or "ohhhh" "he just hit me, glad that was off camera". Or did I just imagine all of that?

[heldicus]

I saw it....it was either Junior or another player off camera.....that was a very bizarre sequence of events.

[Big Klu]

I was sitting there thinking of the ghost of Danny Graves past and the Mothers Day masacare. This was definitely a step in the right direction.

This game may have exorcised those ghosts!

[griffeyfreak4]

Can anybody get a box score that is correct, every website I check is wrong

[reds44]

EDIT:

NM that one was wrong also.

[redlegs2370]

This game may have exorcised those ghosts!
That would be great! Wouldn't it be nice if the Cardinal fans would have to suffer some of the same pain we have had to endure.

[Bob Borkowski]

My dad let me stay up tonight to post on Redzone, so I'm saying go Junior. And my other favorite, go Adam. Go reds.


But wait, young man!


Your Personal Profile says that Albert Pujols is also one of your favorites. Can this actually be true? :confused: :eek:
