[jesusfan]

Well... the night is starting out good so far.... Braves-5 Cardinals-0 after the 1st...

[jesusfan]

Freel grounds to SS, Lopez singles, Griffey K's, Dunn K's.... Wow, here we go

[jesusfan]

Weeks singles to Left...

[jesusfan]

Hall fly-out to Kearns....

[RedLegSuperStar]

Freel grounds to SS, Lopez singles, Griffey K's, Dunn K's.... Wow, here we go

I think the Reds will avoid the sweep and take one. Hopefully they can regain some ground when we play the Braves.

[RedLegSuperStar]

Well... the night is starting out good so far.... Braves-5 Cardinals-0 after the 1st...

James has been real good since being thrown into the rotation. Then the Cards head to Houston so Pujols can add 3 more HR's to his total and so the Cards can split the series

[jesusfan]

We really need this win tonight...

[harangatang]

Hopefully The Lizard will be the stopper tonight.

[jesusfan]

Rich nubs one to 2nd... 1 down

[jesusfan]

Hatte Drives one to the Track, but caught... 2 down

[jesusfan]

Kearns Grounds to Hall... 1-2-3 inning...

[Redhook]

I think the Reds will avoid the sweep and take one. Hopefully they can regain some ground when we play the Braves.

Mays vs. Hudson tomorrow night. How bout that matchup? Is that even fair? We should get a few extra outs to even it up a little bit. If there ever was a game that we were supposed to lose I would think it would be this one. But you never know, crazier things have happened. By the way we've played lately, I'd be thrilled with a split against the Braves.

[jesusfan]

Fielder Flies to Dunn.. 1 down

[jesusfan]

Strike 3 Looking.. 2 down

[jesusfan]

4-3 Ground-out... 1-2-3 inning for EZ-E! C'mon, get the bats out...

[jesusfan]

LaRue singles!

[jesusfan]

LaRue now has a whopping .185 avg...

[Redhook]

no offense jesusfan, you're doing a great job tonight, but these game threads suck ass now. there's only 3 people in here right now. not much fun.

[Razor Shines]

After that first attempt I didn't think he'd get one down

[jesusfan]

Ramirez lays down a pefect sac. bunt....

[jesusfan]

Freel bounces back to the pitcher... 2 down

[Razor Shines]

Atleast Jesus is doing the play by play, last time I was in one no one was saying much of anything. And Jesus is a great play by play guy and he doubles as a closer (savior)

[jesusfan]

Lopez with a Deep fly-out to Center.. Can't get that run across...no score going to the bottom of 3

[jesusfan]

Gross singles to right...

[RedLegSuperStar]

8-1 Braves over St Louis

[jesusfan]

Good Sac. Bunt by Villanueva... Same situation the Reds were in...

[jesusfan]

Weeks Triples down the line... 1-0 brewers

[jesusfan]

Hall Doubles... 2-0 Brew Crew

[jesusfan]

Jenkins grounds to Hatteberg... Hall to 3rd... Lee up

[jesusfan]

Lee singles... 3-0 Brewers... C'mon Ez E!

[Razor Shines]

I think I'm gonna be sick.

[jesusfan]

Fielder grounds to Lopez.. Brewers-3 Reds-0

[jesusfan]

Griffey Doubles... Dunn up

[Razor Shines]

With RA behind dunn I'd guess he's not gonna see much

[jesusfan]

Dunn K's... 1 down.. Rich up

[jesusfan]

Aurilia with a BB... 1 down.. Hatte up

[Redhook]

With RA behind dunn I'd guess he's not gonna see much

Yeah, you gotta love Dunn in the cleanup spot. Makes absolutely no sense. Put him 3rd and Jr. 4th. How hard is that? Apparantely to Narron, it is.

[jesusfan]

Hatte singles... Griffey in... 1st and 3rd.. 1 down Kearns up

[Redhook]

Dunn K's... 1 down.. Rich up

one away from the century mark. could he break his own record....195 k's?

[Redhook]

on the bright side, braves are whoopin' up on the cards....11-3

[jesusfan]

Kearns grounds into a 1-4-3 DP...

[Razor Shines]

Apparently, Rich has some photos that Narron would rather not get out.

[Redhook]

Apparently, Rich has some photos that Narron would rather not got out.

:laugh:

it took me two reads to get this, i'm a little slow ;) , but that's really funny. really funny. thanks for the laugh! :beerme:

[griffeyfreak4]

Jesus!!!! long time no see! Come to chat :)

[griffeyfreak4]

:sleep: :sleep: :sleep: :sleep:

[griffeyfreak4]

Hooray Hatte with an RBI double and now it's 3-2

[griffeyfreak4]

Yay Ears with an RBI triple and now it's a new ballgame

[jimbo]

Way to get the bat on the ball LaRue.....nice job.

[fielder's choice]

Way to get the bat on the ball LaRue.....nice job.

Pitch nearly hit him. Blame the idiot who called a squeeze with someone who never bunts.

[jimbo]

Pitch nearly hit him. Blame the idiot who called a squeeze with someone who never bunts.

There is no excuse for a major league player to not know how to bunt. It doesn't matter where the ball is, on a squeeze you have to get the bat on the ball. It was the perfect time to call a squeeze.

[griffeyfreak4]

5-4-3 Dp!!!!! B-e-a-utiful!!!

[flynn78]

Once again a dead game thread because of the separation of the two boards. I came home hoping to get some talk going, but this is ridiculous. If I ever go up to ORG, I can guarantee I will never leave this board to die and that is a fact.

[biggergipper]

i am starting to believe that there must be a hidden message in Narron's insistence on using Merker and Weathers. Is is a secret code? Is he just running those guys out there to prove a point? I would suggest perhaps using the pitchers with lowest ERA's in games that are close or tied...

[gilpdawg]

Mercker isn't the problem, Weathers is. Mercker hasn't been that bad other than a couple of outings. The first game in Milwaukee he got beat by an error and a couple of balls that fell in that weren't hit very hard. He's been throwing better lately, probably just getting over being hurt back in May.

[flynn78]

Mercker with a good inning. I will give credit when credit is due.:thumbup:

[gilpdawg]

Once again a dead game thread because of the separation of the two boards. I came home hoping to get some talk going, but this is ridiculous. If I ever go up to ORG, I can guarantee I will never leave this board to die and that is a fact.
And yeah, I hate the separate game threads. The game threads are my favorite place to post, (and where I get all my pos rep, due to my quick wit:D ) but now I can't post in a game thread that anybody actually reads. The only reason I wanna get called up to ORG is for the game thread.

[flynn78]

Phillips with a big PH double batting for Hatte. Runner on second for Kearnsy.

[Redhook]

this has potential to put larue up there with a runner on third again with less than 2 outs....wouldn't that be something to see?

[Redhook]

nevermind

[griffeyfreak4]

And yeah, I hate the separate game threads. The game threads are my favorite place to post, (and where I get all my pos rep, due to my quick wit:D ) but now I can't post in a game thread that anybody actually reads. The only reason I wanna get called up to ORG is for the game thread.
Yup. This is just sad beyond sadness. I mainly come on this board for the game threads, and now that they suck I don't come here anymore.

[gilpdawg]

Here's a pet peeve of mine....why doesn't Yost bring in Turnbow here? Because it's not a save situation? There can't be a save situation now, you hold em, and you win it in the bottom of the inning. Stupid. All managers do it. If managers used their best relievers right, the save stat would be obsolete. Let's see here: You have Mariano Rivera. The score is 5-3. Would you
A:In the seventh or eighth inning with the bases loaded and one out, bring in Rivera.....or
B:Save him for the ninth inning that may never come because you may be losing the game if you bring in Joe Blow Middle Reliever?

If you chose B, you're a moron. :)

[Redhook]

good fundamental baseball there by kearnsy backed by Grande saying, "get 'em on, get 'em over, get 'em in." that's the 583rd time he's said that this year for y'all keeping track at home. ;)

[Redhook]

larue just misses that last pitch by a foot and a half

[flynn78]

And yeah, I hate the separate game threads. The game threads are my favorite place to post, (and where I get all my pos rep, due to my quick wit:D ) but now I can't post in a game thread that anybody actually reads. The only reason I wanna get called up to ORG is for the game thread.

I love game threads too, but what is being done to this board is a travesty. I hope people like us can keep this board going for the newbies. They get no chance to be involved in good game threads. Game threads are what makes this board special and not having any ability to contribute to them does not cause newbies to want to stay. I am for inclusiveness.

[Redhook]

what a miracle, larue hit by a pitch on the hand

[jimbo]

Well, if you can't hit and you can't bunt.....I guess you just crowd the plate and put on that padded batting glove.

[gilpdawg]

Jenkins just saved the game for the Brew.

[jimbo]

Wow, what a catch by Jenkins.

[Redhook]

wow, what a diving catch by jenkins to take away 1 possibley 2 runs for the reds...i can't believe he caught that

[killuminati35]

Why didnt Roos pinch hit for LaRue there? Isnt the point of 3 catchers?

[flynn78]

Yup. This is just sad beyond sadness. I mainly come on this board for the game threads, and now that they suck I don't come here anymore.

We can make good game threads here. We have before, we will again. Let's not let this discourage us and make the gamethreads here the place to be. Then, all including newbies can have a voice. I like that much better than the current environment of exclusion.

[Redhook]

that was one of those situations where you're extremely happy when the ball comes off the bat knowing that runs will be scored....then all of the sudden the high hopes turn to pure disappointment....reds need some good luck

[Redhook]

other than freel's homeruns i don't recall seeing him drive someone in this year.....time to change that

[flynn78]

Well, if you can't hit and you can't bunt.....I guess you just crowd the plate and put on that padded batting glove.

Our own Ron Hunt.;)

[Redhook]

wild pitch, runners move up to 2nd and 3rd....3-0 to freel

[jimbo]

other than freel's homeruns i don't recall seeing him drive someone in this year.....time to change that

I was thinking the same thing, last guy I want at the plate in this situation.

[flynn78]

Reds rally dies. 3-3 going to the bottom of the 9th

[gilpdawg]

Off the bat, that ball by Freel looked like it was gonna drop, then it just floated on out to the CF. That was an agonizing inning to watch. When is this team gonna catch a break?

[Redhook]

flyout to center, somehow we don't score there. would love to see the reds bat just one more time

[EKURed]

How does Kearns strike out against that guy????? He looked FAR from overpowering....really depressing...

[Redhook]

2007


:evil:

[Redhook]

How does Kearns strike out against that guy????? He looked FAR from overpowering....really depressing...

because he's not a good contact hitter. the sad part is kearns is pretty good at going the other way and he failed to do it under pressure. sad. he needed to get that runner over. bad baseball there. probably cost us the game.

[flynn78]

How does Kearns strike out against that guy????? He looked FAR from overpowering....really depressing...

I thought the same. It seems that Austin can just never make "The Leap" from good to great. Great gets it done in those situations, good does that "K's trying too hard" and on rare occasion comes through.

[GOREDSGO32]

Here we go ....

[flynn78]

Coffey gives up Cirillo double and BB to Weeks. I'm speechless.

[flynn78]

Find the plate Todd.

[flynn78]

This is insane. 2-0 to Hall

[GOREDSGO32]

Dp! Yes!

[Redhook]

OMG.....incredible double play!!

[flynn78]

Miracle DP by Phillips (getting up slowly, I cross fingers), we move to extra innings. Shaky Coffey, but it worked.

[gilpdawg]

And the bullpen gets out of another one! Maybe our luck is turning around. Hope BP is ok, looked like a Ron Oester/Mookie Wilson situation developing for a sec.

[Redhook]

lopez scooped it behind 2nd, flipped to BP who caught it barehanded and then threw to 1st....great play!

[jimbo]

Woooowwwww.....what a double play. That's a webgem.

[flynn78]

Hope BP is okay.

[Redhook]

i want back to back homers by jr. and dunn.....one won't be enough ;)

[flynn78]

Just showed Phillips in the dugout, he seemed okay.

[Redhook]

BP hobbling the dougout, but appears he'll be ok.....probably just a bump and a bruise

[muethibp]

And yeah, I hate the separate game threads. The game threads are my favorite place to post, (and where I get all my pos rep, due to my quick wit:D ) but now I can't post in a game thread that anybody actually reads. The only reason I wanna get called up to ORG is for the game thread.

With all due respect to the people that run this board, the split discussion board blows. It's one of the reasons I come here every day but am moved to post once every few months only.

[Redhook]

c'mon walk

[Redhook]

lopez swung at a ball that he couldn't have hit with a 9 iron

[griffeyfreak4]

Juuuuuuuuuuuuuuuunnnnnnniour! Please!

[Redhook]

just missed by jr.

[GOREDSGO32]

Dunner! Home Run!

[Redhook]

gone, Dunn!

[gilpdawg]

Adam Dunn sure sucks in the clutch!:D

[flynn78]

Dunn HR off Turbow. We lead 4-3.

[Redhook]

too bad jr. couldn't hold up his end of the bargain ;)

[griffeyfreak4]

Dunnnn B-E-A-UTIFUL!!!!!!!

[jimbo]

There goes Dunn with another solo home run.

[Redhook]

allright, let's not get too excited here, we have to finish this sucker off

[flynn78]

Here we go to the bottom of the 10th. :pray:

[Redhook]

for my sanity, i need a 1-2-3 inning here

[Sean_CaseyRules]

Gotta hope the luck stays with the pen!

[flynn78]

allright, let's not get too excited here, we have to finish this sucker off

Believe me Redhook, I am the definition of cautiously optimistic right now.

[flynn78]

Manos de oro (Castro) in to play third.

[flynn78]

This is beyond insane. HR Jenkins all tied up.

[griffeyfreak4]

tie game

[Redhook]

surprise surprise...homer by jenkins

[GOREDSGO32]

Tie game. Amazing. You can set your watch to this bullpen blowing a game, I swear. 142 straight AB's without a HR for this guy Marty just said.

[Sean_CaseyRules]

im going to go and find a crow to eat....

[flynn78]

I have absolutely had it. This is downright silly. Coffey needs to get it together or find a spot in AAA.

[Redhook]

narron looks old, really old. i bet he's aged 10 years since april

[MartyFan]

WOW! This BP is the downer to everything good happening with this team.

[EKURed]

Sorry guys...Coffey just doesn't have what it takes to be a closer. The Reds should have won 2 out of 3 in this series and he blows the leads before he can get an out in both games. I realize that he pitched the 9th tonight, but if you're a closer, you come back and shut the Brewers down after the offense gets you a lead in the top half of the 10th. The Reds' bullpen is embarassing. Is there a better way to describe it?

[Redhook]

WOW! This BP is the downer to everything good happening with this team.

very true. it's so bad now that it's almost comical. at first, we were all pissed when we blew saves. we're still pissed, but not as much because the bullpen blowing a save is expected.....every time.

[scounts22]

Nope, that pretty much sums it up.

[flynn78]

Recipe for flynn78's nervous breakdown
Offense- check
Clutch hitting- check
Starting Pitching- haven't had any in years, but check
Fielding- so-so but better as of late, so check
Relief Pitching- :explode:

[jimbo]

What a great catch by Griffey.....I still say he is the best CF on the team.

[nick311reds]

He's a great set up guy but not a closer. We need a closer and then we have a better set up guy in Coffey.

[gilpdawg]

Back to setup role for Coffey. Put anybody in the closer role. Like I said earlier, nobody uses them correctly anyway, so it doesn't really matter. The setup guys usually get the most important outs anyway, and Coffey was thriving in that role.

[cinredsfan2000]

Even last year with the whole graves fiasco it wasnt even close to this bad ! This is PATHETIC what's been happeniong with this bullpen:bang: :bash: :barf: :barf: :barf: :barf: :barf:

[flynn78]

JR catches ball at warning track from Brady Clark, to the 11th. I have to be honest if Todd Coffey would have given the walkoff up there I would have shown up at their hotel tonight with a baseball bat and a demented smile.;)

[CincyFan]

I wonder sometimes watching the Reds Broadcaster George Grande - who he is really rooting for.... Get em' on get em' over get him in'

[Redhook]

What a great catch by Griffey.....I still say he is the best CF on the team.

too bad he's not due up this inning so we could here Grande say, "how many times does a guy make a great catch and lead off the next inning....blah, blah, blah"

[nick311reds]

ya get a good closer and a 4 era starter for your 5 spot and this team gets alot better.

[Redhook]

i like phillips. i wish we had another one of him.

[flynn78]

I wonder sometimes watching the Reds Broadcaster George Grande - who he is really rooting for.... Get em' on get em' over get him in'

GG is rooting for whoever is on the "smiling side of the scoreboard".:D

[EKURed]

I wonder sometimes watching the Reds Broadcaster George Grande - who he is really rooting for.... Get em' on get em' over get him in'

You too? That aspect of him makes him even more brutal to listen to when the Reds are slumping.

[jimbo]

I might be the only guy on this board who feels this way, but I really have no problem with Grande.

[nick311reds]

You too? That aspect of him makes him even more brutal to listen to when the Reds are slumping.

Like fingers down a chalkboard, Welch has been quiet.

[CincyFan]

You too? That aspect of him makes him even more brutal to listen to when the Reds are slumping.


Glad I am not the only one- Maybe he is auditioning for another club?? :beerme:

[Redhook]

I might be the only guy on this board who feels this way, but I really have no problem with Grande.

that is amazing

[gilpdawg]

I might be the only guy on this board who feels this way, but I really have no problem with Grande.
Only problem with him I have is his misjudging of fly balls. You know the drill, "hit pretty good" as the shortstop and left fielder nearly collide going for the ball and "it'll stay in the park."

[flynn78]

I might be the only guy on this board who feels this way, but I really have no problem with Grande.

jimbo, I need to have some of what you are having cause he drives me crazy when they are slumping.

[gilpdawg]

Did that ball hit Austin in the head? We catch another break, let's take advantage of it.

[flynn78]

AK steals second and goes to third on the throw off of his noggin.

[Redhook]

good news: kearns steals 2nd and takes 3rd on the throw that hits him

bad news: larue is up

[CincyFan]

haha nice play kearns way to use your head!

[Razor Shines]

I almost don't want the run to score....I don't need the anger when they give up the lead

[gilpdawg]

Ross to PH.

[jimbo]

Uggghhhh.....LaRue is just worthless. Nice rope to the SS. Way to get it out of the infield.

[flynn78]

Jason LaRue is doing his best imitation of Mario Mendoza at this point.

[jimbo]

jimbo, I need to have some of what you are having cause he drives me crazy when they are slumping.

Maybe I should try listening to him sober. :beerme: :laugh:

[flynn78]

Ross K's, to the bottom we go.

[nick311reds]

I hope we see Standridge now.

[gilpdawg]

Screw this. I have to go to bed. See you guys tomorrow night. Let's pull this one out.

[CincyFan]

i think it is shackelford

[Redhook]

:barf:

[scounts22]

Enough with the bullpen. Let's bring Juan Castro out to pitch.

[EKURed]

I'm getting so tired of watching LaRue talk to himself during each at bat. I know it's embarassing, but I would have thought about calling LaRue back in that situation for Ross.

[Redhook]

Screw this. I have to go to bed. See you guys tomorrow night. Let's pull this one out.

what he said

[nick311reds]

This ones over, Yans in..

[CincyFan]

if we lose - do you think a move will happen or will they wait until after we are in 3rd place in Atlanta ?

[tomred]

Jason is the star of the game

[flynn78]

Yan in, gilpdawg to bed. :)

[nick311reds]

He gives up more homers then Milton that was close to one..

[red-in-la]

Jason LaRue is doing his best imitation of Mario Mendoza at this point.

Blame LaRue on Narron. He has carried 3 catchers all season but managed as if he had only two. He continues to start LaRue against RH and he REFUSES to PH for LaRue with the game on the line when there is a RH pitcher......:bang:

[flynn78]

Yan in, gilpdawg to bed. :)
add Redhook too
That's okay I'll bring her home guys.:thumbup:

[CincyFan]

Yan's got a good splitter, he is just throwing the heater though right?

[nick311reds]

Here goes Yan's implosion that was almost a homer

[nick311reds]

Weeks and hall will put it away.

[cinredsfan2000]

Here goes Yan's implosion that was almost a homer
:bang: :bang: :bang:

[spaethc]

am I just seeing things or does Yan have an upside down american flag on his hat???

[flynn78]

Yan please hold on:pray:

[nick311reds]

Standridge Should Be In There

[nick311reds]

My God Its A Miracle

[flynn78]

Yes, Yan. Do you believe in miracles? Yes! The Reds bullpen holds an inning.

[jimbo]

am I just seeing things or does Yan have an upside down american flag on his hat???

I didn't see it, but I highly doubt it. MLB does not allow alterations to the uniform.

[EKURed]

The Reds Need at least TWO in this inning. Who thinks the Brewers are good for at least one the next inning with Hall leading off?

[nick311reds]

Standridge has been the best arm in this bullpen as of late until I see otherwise. He needs to pitch as much as possible. And for the brewers to have one of the worst bullpens you could have fooled me..

[EKURed]

I'm glad Narron hastily yanked Dunn for defense. Doesn't he know that a one run lead is NOTHING??? I hope that philosophy is shut down after tonight. I sure would like to have Dunn coming up 4th instead of Castro. Anyone else share the same opinion??

[flynn78]

am I just seeing things or does Yan have an upside down american flag on his hat???

I think I saw that too. Yesterday they were on the caps for the 4th, sometimes they don't think about it and wear the same hat. Patches fall off and he probably just mashed it back on. Happens quite often, as I have seen on ESPN Page 2 Column Uni Watch.

[CincyFan]

is that david ross pitching ? lol

[flynn78]

I'm getting so tired of watching LaRue talk to himself during each at bat. I know it's embarassing, but I would have thought about calling LaRue back in that situation for Ross.

I'm tired of hearing me curse to myself during each of LaRue's at bats.

[nick311reds]

this bullpen is getting way to much credit

[Wheelhouse]

Lopez K's on poop.

[flynn78]

Reds go 1-2-3. To the bottom of the 12th we go.

[CincyFan]

Reds go 1-2-3. To the bottom of the 12th we go.


Not looking good

[EKURed]

Lopez K's on poop.

Lopez has selfishly given up his last 2 at-bats. UGH. This is dreadful. But, it's like a car wreck. I can't turn away...

[jimbo]

flynn......your Buffett signature describes just exactly how I feel right now.

[Benny-Distefano]

muuuuuuullllllllti-tasking

[CincyFan]

on a good note Houston lost and St. Louis- Still 2nd Place either way

[Benny-Distefano]

Yan Can Pitch?

[Benny-Distefano]

woah Freeeeeeeel!!

[nick311reds]

No Yan........... Noooooooooooooooooooooo......

[jimbo]

That Freel defensive replacement in left is looking pretty good now.

[redlegs7089]

why is yan pitching again, then again i think were screwed no matter who they put in...

[Razor Shines]

Who was pitching for the Brewers that inning? Mo Rivera?

[nick311reds]

Why is yan in there?

[flynn78]

flynn......your Buffett signature describes just exactly how I feel right now.

That's why it is there my friend. Me too.

[nick311reds]

I'd rather see standridge

[nick311reds]

this is scary

[flynn78]

Who was pitching for the Brewers that inning? Mo Rivera?

It could have been Geraldo Rivera and it would not have mattered. That is a cold part of the lineup.

[nick311reds]

their bullpen is dominating

[jimbo]

Is it time to start questioning whether Lopez had a career year last season? His head just doesn't seem in the game half the time.

[jimbo]

Yan's flag is upside down......I dislike him even more now.

[Benny-Distefano]

Grande...quit with the lame flag comment.

[flynn78]

Great catch by Freel, Jenkins base hit. 1 on for Lee. Help.

[nick311reds]

Lets see Standridge NOW PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.....

[Benny-Distefano]

Yan Cant Pitch

[flynn78]

Is it time to start questioning whether Lopez had a career year last season? His head just doesn't seem in the game half the time.

I think it is. I agree totally. He seems "spacy" sometimes. May have been an aberraration.

[nick311reds]

Shack That is scary to but not as scary as Yan

[flynn78]

Yan out, Shackleford in.

[Benny-Distefano]

ShackleShiiizackle coming in...

[EKURed]

That Freel defensive replacement in left is looking pretty good now.

Let's hope it looks that good IF they make it out of this inning when Castro will hit where Dunn would have been...

[nick311reds]

Hopefully that stat with Shack being good against Lefties is right. Then again Fielder is due for an RBI

[Benny-Distefano]

Shack That is scary to but not as scary as Yan

Ididnt even know it was possible to get neg rating.... what the heck happened, man?! :beerme:

[flynn78]

Yan Cant Pitch

but he can cook ;)

[spaethc]

come on Shack!!!

[EKURed]

Grande has been waiting the whole series to drop that stat...

[Benny-Distefano]

but he can cook ;)



finally, someone gets my Yan joke... :thumbup:

[spaethc]

wow a stirkeout by the bullpen! its a miracle!

[redlegs7089]

nice

[flynn78]

Shack K's Fielder on three pitches. Yesss! Two down.

[Benny-Distefano]

noooooooo

Grande has been waiting the whole series to drop that stat...

And delivered it like that as well. Sounded out of breath he was so excited to point it out.

i believe

[nick311reds]

bring on standridge

[flynn78]

Standridge in, Shack out

[nick311reds]

My hopes are in Standridge

[flynn78]

Good call on check swing by Meals.

[flynn78]

Standridge overmatches with the K.

[nick311reds]

Standridge continues to look like our best option in the pen

[Benny-Distefano]

nice KKs...may I never doubt Narron again. ;)

[Razor Shines]

that was all right.

[redlegs7089]

nice its 12 and theres still baseball on

[CincyFan]

Really Nice (2) strikeouts!

[EKURed]

I might give Standridge a try in the next 9th inning situation based on stuff alone. I do think Coffey is better in innings 7 and 8.

[CincyFan]

time for castro's clutch hr!

[Benny-Distefano]

Freel once again finds a way to get on base

[Razor Shines]

Juan freaking Castro...are you kidding me?

[flynn78]

Just for Benny.

[CincyFan]

ahh !!! we have some luck! unless LaRue is coming up!

[EKURed]

Let's hope it looks that good IF they make it out of this inning when Castro will hit where Dunn would have been...

Excuse me while I go eat a plate of crow...

[KYRed]

Now that Narron switch looks great! ;)

[redlegs7089]

lets to get advantage of this lucky break!!!

[flynn78]

Manos de oro Doubles!

[Benny-Distefano]

Tired of uncalled Balks...what was that year the umps called Balks every other pitch?
