[Matt700wlw]

Hopper
Phillips
Dunn
Conine
EE
Hamilton
Gonzo
Ross
Harang




Somebody else find the Indians lineup.....I'm busy :D

[PuffyPig]

As expected, Griffey gets a much needed rest in a day game after a night game. With injuries previously, he hasn't always gotten his usual rest in this situation.With the tough lefty in, it's a good as time as any to rest him.

He was starting to tire about 10 games ago, and his few days off seemed to rejuvenate him this week. We need to keep his fresh to keep him productive.

[KronoRed]

Dunn in the 3 spot..I'm all a flutter.

[Matt700wlw]

This is a cool ceremony for Waite, Marty, and Joe

[Dom Heffner]

John Waite?

Maybe "I ain't missing you at all" was a song about not striking out and not a love song.

[pedro]

John Waite?

Maybe "I ain't missing you at all" was a song about not striking out and not a love song.

And "Head First" was about Ryal Freel.

[Dom Heffner]

And "Head First" was about Ryan Freel.

This really could be another thread.

I was also thinking the John Waite song coud have been about Tony Womack, because I really don't miss him at all. No matter what my friends might say.

[Matt700wlw]

Griffey sitting


:(

As expected

[Matt700wlw]

Wow!

Edwin!!

:clap:


I'm about to put him on my "going to win a gold glove" list, with Phillips

[Gallen5862]

What did EE do?

[TeamBoone]

Harang gives up a double to Sizemore to lead off the inning. Great play by Edwin in snagging a hard hit ball and throwing Blake out at first from his knees.

[Gallen5862]

Thanks Team Boone.

[TeamBoone]

Sizemore advances to third on a wild pitch/passed ball (not sure which) and then Haranag walks Martinez.

Runners on first and third; no outs.

[Gallen5862]

Reds need a dp.

[RedsMan3203]

Harang gives up a double to Sizemore to lead off the inning. Great play by Edwin in snagging a hard hit ball and throwing Blake out at first from his knees.

Seems like EdE is taking his time and not rushing anymore on the field.... Maybe the trip to 3A helped him figure that out... He has been soild at 3rd snice the call up.

[TeamBoone]

Harang gives up a double to Sizemore to lead off the inning. Great play by Edwin in snagging a hard hit ball and throwing Blake out at first from his knees.

I screwed this up and it has a trickle-down effect because of my error.

Sizemore struck out; Blake hit the double; EE threw out Martinez.

[TeamBoone]

Sizemore advances to third on a wild pitch/passed ball (not sure which) and then Haranag walks Martinez.

Runners on first and third; no outs.

Blake advances to third and Garko Walks.

Because I was correcting these two post, I don't know what else happened.

Anyway, middle of first; 0-0

[KronoRed]

Got lucky there

[TeamBoone]

Hopper makes an out (sorry, didn't see how).

Phillips SO on 2-2 count.

Dunn, wow! He hammered a foul ball into the upper deck corner in right. It was very impressive! But then he grounds to second for an out at first.

Bottom 1: 0-0

[RedsMan3203]

With CC and Harrang on the mound... Its gonna be a quick game...

[Gallen5862]

Thanks for the updates and play by play.

[Patrick Bateman]

With CC and Harrang on the mound... Its gonna be a quick game...

Why? Are they going to eat their opposing line-ups?

[TeamBoone]

Top of two:

Peralta grounds to SS for a full-count out at first. 1 out.

Dellucci another full count and he strikes out. 2 outs.

Barfield SO on 3-4 pitches.

Middle of 2: 0-0

[KronoRed]

Why? Are they going to eat their opposing line-ups?

Hmmmm...lineups.

[TeamBoone]

Thanks for the updates and play by play.

You're very welcome.

[Matt700wlw]

Why? Are they going to eat their opposing line-ups?

GET IN MAH BELLY!!!

[RedsMan3203]

Speaking of Harrangs Bobblehead Night - Who is the starting pitcher?

Boy - Those were 2 hot chicks on FSN... If they can have them... Why can't we?

[Matt700wlw]

Conine, although ancient, was a good pickup

[pedro]

This really could be another thread.



We could all have a "Midnight Rendezvous" there.

[RedsMan3203]

Speaking of Harrangs Bobblehead Night - Who is the starting pitcher?


Lohse - I didn't think it was available yet...... 2 games in a row I go see the Reds I get Lohse....

[KronoRed]

Lohse - I didn't think it was available yet...... 2 games in a row I go see the Reds I get Lohse....

I've seen Milton the last 3 times I've gone..be thankful for what you get ;)

[pedro]

Conine, although ancient, was a good pickup

The funny thing about Conine is how consistent he's been over his career. He's the walking definition of "league average".

[RedsMan3203]

I've seen Milton the last 3 times I've gone..be thankful for what you get ;)

I've had my Milton games... Plenty of them...

[Matt700wlw]

As usual, excellent at bat by Josh Hamilton

[Matt700wlw]

I've had my Milton games... Plenty of them...

Saw Milton in Wrigley last season....he pitched well that day, and had a good day at the plate!

[RedsMan3203]

Woah! What a swing gonzo...

[TeamBoone]

Conine batting with the dark glasses. Is that the norm? I don't think I've ever noticed anyone doing that before. Base hit under the glove of the second baseman. Conine on first.

Encarnacion hits a foul liner down the third base line. Darn! Would have been a double for sure. Instead, 4-6 FC to second. Encarnacion on first. 1 out.

Hamilton walks on a full count. Runners on first and second.

Gonzalez hits into DP.... sigh.

End of two: 0-0

[KronoRed]

The funny thing about Conine is how consistent he's been over his career. He's the walking definition of "league average".

They need a new stat, VOC (Value over Conine) ;)

[RedsMan3203]

CC can swing that bat....

[Matt700wlw]

That CC guy can hit....he'd like it in the NL :)

[TeamBoone]

Sabathia base hit right down the middle. ugh! Runner on first.

Sizemore bunt hit toward third. Runners on first and second.

Blake hits into 6-4-3 DP. Sabathia on third. 2 outs.

Martinez SO.

Middle of three: 0-0

[WVRedsFan]

ESPN has Harang with 64 pitches through three. Is that right? It couldn't be...

[RedsMan3203]

Those were 5 sneaky K's by Harrang...

[Falls City Beer]

That was Harang's best inning all season long--the first two months of the season, Martinez would have cleared the bases with a ringing double to the deepest part of the park. Keep it up, Aaron.

[RedsMan3203]

ESPN has Harang with 64 pitches through three. Is that right? It couldn't be...

Yahoo has him at 58. - Sportsline has him at 54. :p:

[Matt700wlw]

Yahoo has him at 58. - Sportsline has him at 54. :p:

So he's somewhere between 32 and 97

[WVRedsFan]

Yahoo has him at 58. - Sportsline has him at 54. :p:

Uh oh. Arm abuse time.

He may get to 100 by the 5th inning.

Ross bunting is really crazy.

[TeamBoone]

Ross (.190 BA) bunts for a hit toward third but gets beat out by a step. 1 out.

Harang hops it to short on second pitch. 2 outs.

Hopper grounds to SS. 3 outs.

End of three: 0-0

[KronoRed]

He may get to 100 by the 5th inning.

He just wants to fit in with Arroyo and Bailey

[RedsMan3203]

81 pitches... He needs a quick 1-2-3 inning in the 5th.. Or our pen will be hit.

[TeamBoone]

Garko SO. 1 out. (6th SO for Harang)

Nixon works it full, fouls one off, then walks on a high throw. Runner on first.

Peralta makes it another full count and then flies out to left. Runner still on first. 2 outs.

Dellucci SO.

Middle of four: 0-0 (Harang at 81 pitches)

[Eric_Davis]

Who got hurt on the Phillips play?

[RedsMan3203]

Who got hurt on the Phillips play?

Garko

[TeamBoone]

Phillips to short, out at first. Garko falls as Phillips hits his shoulder running and ends up in a face plant on first, but makes the tag. 1 out.

Dunn works it full, fouls tips a few (10-pitch AB), and then doubles hard to the wall in the gap. Dunn on second.

Conine flies to short center. Dunn unable to advance. 2 outs.

Encarnacion swings stupidly at two balls (one high, one almost in the dirt though he did try to check it) and strikes out.

End of four: 0-0

[TeamBoone]

Barfield flies to Hamilton on first pitch. 1 out.

Sabathia bounces to short right and is thrown out at first. 2 outs.

Sizemore works the count full, fouls off 1, ans strikes out on a check swing.

Harang at 95 pitches.

Middle of five: 0-0 (Indians 3 hits; Reds 2 hits)

[TeamBoone]

Hamilton full count, then fouls out to Blake at third. 1 out.

Gonzalez flies out to Nixon in right. 2 outs.

Ross strikes out trying to check his swing.

End of five: 0-0

[RedsMan3203]

Should this be the last inning for Harrang?

[TeamBoone]

Hello? Is anybody out there besides RedsMan and myself?

[RedsMan3203]

Hello? Is anybody out there besides RedsMan and myself?

Its a beautiful day to be outside in the yard and listen'n to 700 for the game...

[Matt700wlw]

Its a beautiful day to be outside in the yard and listen'n to 700 for the game...

Sounds nice!

[Matt700wlw]

Unfortunately, at some point in this game, the Reds bullpen will have to participate.

[TeamBoone]

Blake pops up to Encarnacion (on top of the mound). 1 out.

Martinez grounds to SS, thrown out at first. 2 outs.

Garko flies out to Hopper in right.

Middle of six: 0-0

[Strikes Out Looking]

I'm here (made it back to ORG just today) but since I'm not listening or watching the game, I don't have much to add to the pitcher's duel. I'm enjoying Team Boone's updates though.

[TeamBoone]

Bottom of 6 and the Reds are just completing their second time through the order.

Harang to infield (?), thrown out at first. 1 out.

Hopper flies out to Nixon in RF corner. 2 outs.

Phillips hits a grounder just a little beyond first; loses the race.

Bottom of 6: 0-0

[Reds Fanatic]

Hargang starts this inning at 104 pitches.

[TeamBoone]

didn't mean to post; will update

[Eric_Davis]

This is the inning where we'll see why if we could get ourselves into the playoffs, why Aaron Harang would be that Ace that delivers us a World Series Triumph.

[Reds Fanatic]

That is the 9th K for Harang today.

[Reds Fanatic]

10 Ks for Harang. That is his season high and 2 away from his career high.

[TeamBoone]

Nixon flies out to Hamilton in right. 1 out.

Peralta strikes out swinging on a change-up. 2 outs.

Dellucci SO swinging. (10 SO for Harang)

Middle of 7: 0-0 (Hits unchanged for both teams: Indians 3; Reds 2)

[Reds Fanatic]

Great start for Harang today but at 116 pitches you would think that would be it for today.

[RedsMan3203]

we gonna score this inning...

[Eric_Davis]

Harang, you are clearly the leader of this beleaguered team.

[jesusfan]

C'mon Redlegs.. just got home from work and I wanna see a victory!

[Eric_Davis]

Now give this King an effort worthy of his status and bring home some runs and make the skies ablaze with fireworks of joy.

[Matt700wlw]

Classic video...young Marty and younger Joe...

[jesusfan]

C'mon YB... we need a big fly...

[Matt700wlw]

Lohse warming up in the bullpen - that is not a typo

[jesusfan]

I guess harangatang is done...

[Eric_Davis]

Classic video...young Marty and younger Joe...

What a classic duel between great pitchers.

[RedsMan3203]

we gonna score this inning...

So... I was wrong...

[TeamBoone]

Dunn SO looking on a 1-2 count. 1 out.

Conine SO looking. 2 outs.

Encarnacion pops out to first.

End of 7: still scoreless in this pitching duel (will Harang be back?)

[Reds Fanatic]

Through 7 innings:

Harang 116 pitches
Sabathia 90 pitches

[Eric_Davis]

I'm sure the home crowd gave Harang a standing ovation coming off the mound in the 7th inning stretch.

[RedsMan3203]

Lohse warming up in the bullpen - that is not a typo

I don't think he got his side session in today with the stuff going on before the game.... So he is getting his session in now...

[Falls City Beer]

Definitely blame the offense today. They aren't making Sabathia work at all.

[Matt700wlw]

What a classic duel between great pitchers.

That too! A good old good one

[Reds Fanatic]

Stanton coming in to pitch.

[RedsMan3203]

Stanton coming in to pitch.

yay... :evil:

[Matt700wlw]

Stanton in

[Reds Fanatic]

Lohse is warming up. Not sure if that is to come in the game or just getting work in.

[Strikes Out Looking]

Dunn SO looking on a 1-2 count. 1 out.

Conine SO looking. 2 outs.

Encarnacion pops out to first.

End of 7: still scoreless in this pitching duel (will Harang be back?)

Lookee, Lookee, I'm mentioned in two of the three outs!

[Reds Fanatic]

Sabathia with his 2nd hit of the game.

[Matt700wlw]

Somebody remind CC Sabathia that he's an AL pitcher...

[Gallen5862]

Thanks for all the updates. Was Garko removed from the game when he collided with BP?

[jesusfan]

I dont care if he is a good hitter, hes the pitcher, get him out!

[Reds Fanatic]

Thanks for all the updates. Was Garko removed from the game when he collided with BP?No he is still in as far as I know.

[RedsMan3203]

Thanks for all the updates. Was Garko removed from the game when he collided with BP?


Nope... Did a push-up... Cleaned him self off and kept playing.

[Matt700wlw]

McBeth joins Lohse in the bullpen

[Reds Fanatic]

The first career mulit-hit game for Sabathia.

[WVRedsFan]

Just a question...

Why are soft-tossing lefties such a problem for us and not for anyone else?

[Matt700wlw]

Stanton slowly returning to form...

[jesusfan]

Nice Stanton...

[RedsMan3203]

welcome to the 8th....

[Reds Fanatic]

Another hit. Stanton is about to waste the great start by Harang. 1st and 2nd.

[KronoRed]

McBeth joins Lohse in the bullpen

Lohse turns to McBeth...WHO ARE YOU? :D

[WVRedsFan]

Unfortunately, I see a big inning for the Indians. Why Stanton?

[jesusfan]

Stanton vs Blake... great

[RedsMan3203]

Stanton vs Blake... great

it was great....

[Reds Fanatic]

Blake pops out to 2nd. 2 outs.

[Strikes Out Looking]

Unfortunately, I see a big inning for the Indians. Why Stanton?

Because Jerry called to the bullpen and asked for Coffey and was told he wasn't there.

[jesusfan]

C'mon now Stanton... get out of this...

[WVRedsFan]

Stanton with a 70 mph something. 70 mph?

[jesusfan]

it was great....

guess so....

[Falls City Beer]

As long as Jerry doesn't go to Maj, I'll be okay.

[jesusfan]

Nice curve...

[jesusfan]

Bases jacked... dang

[Reds Fanatic]

Bases now loaded on a Martinez single.

[Matt700wlw]

Good thing big boy Sabathia was on base or they would have scored.

[jesusfan]

bases loaded for Garko... leaving Stanton in...

[KronoRed]

Let Stanton finish it

[RedsMan3203]

1 pitch at a time...

[WVRedsFan]

69 mph curve?

bases loaded

[RedsMan3203]

64 mph! wow

[BCubb2003]

Good thing big boy Sabathia was on base or they would have scored.

That was Stanton's ploy to put Sabathia on to clog the bases.

[guttle11]

Wow. That was a curveball.

[jesusfan]

0-2... c'mon now!

[jesusfan]

2-2...

[jesusfan]

Where in the world was that????

[Reds Fanatic]

3-2 count on Garko.

[Matt700wlw]

wow....woeful fielding and the reds catch a break...sort of

[jesusfan]

How do you know catch that ball??

[guttle11]

Please don't walk him.

[Reds Fanatic]

Unbelievable a foul ball on the infield as no one fields it. Stanton tried but did not get to it. Reds are lucky that landed foul.

[BCubb2003]

64 mph! wow

A pitcher should have to throw faster than the state speed limit.

[KronoRed]

That was lucky

[WVRedsFan]

Why would you ever bring Stanton in when the score is close?

[guttle11]

Hey!

Nice pitch.

[jesusfan]

K!... that was some scary crap...

[RedsMan3203]

The Stanton Man Can!

[Matt700wlw]

Stanton!!!


TRADE HIM NOW!!!!!

[CrackerJack]

wow - nice pitch Stanton

[KronoRed]

Stanton doing well vs the AL ;)

[TeamBoone]

Stanton in.

Barfield grounds to third; thrown out at first. 1 out.

Sabathia hits another down the middle (has two of the Indians 4 hits today). Runner on first.

Sizemore works it full, fouls one off, then hits it cleanly into short center. Runners on first and second.

Blake pops it up to Phillips. 2 outs. (whew!)

Martinez grounds to left after a couple beautiful strikes by Stanton. Bases loaded! The usual Reds downfall after the starter comes out of the game.

Garko works it full... I'm holding my breath. Pops it up but no one can get to it. Wait! They're calling it foul. It hit just inside the line and bounces foul (Stanton never touched it). A real break for the Reds. And on the next pitch, Stanton strikes him out. Oh my gosh!

Middle of 8: 0-0

[WVRedsFan]

Why would you ever bring Stanton in when the score is close?

K's his man. Danny Graves anyone?

[Reds Fanatic]

Garko strikes out. Stanton gets out of the inning.

[Strikes Out Looking]

The Stanton Man Can!

give us all heart attacks.

[redsmetz]

Why would you ever bring Stanton in when the score is close?

Because he's been pitching very well his last few outings. He was unbelievable Friday night. And now, he K's that last batter. Brantley says he's got his breaking ball working, so this is what we hired him for. Only in Redszone do we believe he'll never be good again.

[Falls City Beer]

Donnie Darko Garko.

[Matt700wlw]

That breaking ball is helping Stanton...let's hope it keeps up

[flyer85]

stanton should never throw his "fastball" for a strike. When he relies on the offspeed stuff he is marginally effective

[Reds Fanatic]

Hamilton, Gonzalez and Ross due up.

[Eric_Davis]

Let's go offense. Work together. Do what it takes to get one run.

[Matt700wlw]

Let's go offense. Work together. Do what it takes to get one run.

Small ball? Produce runs? Little things?


What be those?

[WVRedsFan]

Because he's been pitching very well his last few outings. He was unbelievable Friday night. And now, he K's that last batter. Brantley says he's got his breaking ball working, so this is what we hired him for. Only in Redszone do we believe he'll never be good again.

Sure did cause heart palpatrations, though. That slow stuff drives me crazy. And of course his past record gives to doubt and denial. Normal human stuff. We need to be more analytical.

[jesusfan]

Sabathia is crazy good...

[Matt700wlw]

Griffey: PH homer to win the game

[jesusfan]

thats 100 pitches...

[KronoRed]

Small ball? Produce runs? Little things?


What be those?

Buzz words

[jesusfan]

nice swing at the 58 foot curve ball...

[KronoRed]

Gonzo swinging at pitches near his shoes

[WVRedsFan]

Ross could go a long way toward turning his season around by going deep here.

[RedsMan3203]

Gonzo swinging at pitches near his shoes

That wasn't even close to his shoes....

[Falls City Beer]

A-Gon-izing.

[KronoRed]

That wasn't even close to his shoes....

It was after it bounced :D

[jesusfan]

When you hear cheers its when the Indians do something good... must be alot more Cleveland fans in attendance...

[RedsMan3203]

It was after it bounced :D

For the 2nd time. :p:

[jesusfan]

Castro up next... goody!

[Matt700wlw]

Juan Castro will pinch hit for Mike Stanton....which is stupidly stupid

[TeamBoone]

Hamilton hits off the glove to SS on a full count; thrown out at first. 1 out.

Gonzalez watches the first pitch go right down the middle and then SOs on a ball in the dirt (curve?). 2 outs.

Ross grounds to SS; out at first.

Bottom of 8: 0-0

[jesusfan]

15 in a row retired by C.C... I guess Castro will have to end it in the 9th...

[WVRedsFan]

Castro doesn't get up. He'll lead off the 9th, I guess.

[Reds Fanatic]

That is 105 pitches for Sabathia.

[KronoRed]

*looks at bench*

Really? Castro is the best you can do?

[Matt700wlw]

I would hope Griffey would lead off the 9th

[jesusfan]

Stormitus Maximus in again... 4th straight...

[Matt700wlw]

Weathers in....again

[WVRedsFan]

When you hear cheers its when the Indians do something good... must be alot more Cleveland fans in attendance...
I noticed that last night too. Shameful, but understanable.

Weathers in. right arm had better be rubberized.

[KronoRed]

I would hope Griffey would lead off the 9th

Indians might have a kooky lefty

[jesusfan]

FO to Hambone... 1 down

[jesusfan]

Indians might have a kooky lefty

He has hit the kooky lefties this year... well, except for Brian Shouse...

[Matt700wlw]

Indians might have a kooky lefty

Griffey's pretty kooky himself.

[flyer85]

pitching Weathers ... not a good idea. His arm is gonna fall off

[jesusfan]

Bouncer to Gonzo... 2 down

[KronoRed]

pitching Weathers ... not a good idea. His arm is gonna fall off

Not till we give him a 3 year deal

[jesusfan]

Weathers is going to make somebody a good set-up man for their postseason run...

[flyer85]

Weathers is going to make somebody a good set-up man for their postseason run...if Narron keeps pitching him 4 days in a row he won't be pitching come September.

[WVRedsFan]

Weathers is going to make somebody a good set-up man for their postseason run...
Narron won't allow Wayne to trade him. He's the most dependable arm he has.

[jesusfan]

You da man Stormy! C'mon, lets win this thing!

[TeamBoone]

Weathers in for Stanton. Welsh complaining about how much he's been used. Is it really that bad? He only pitches 1 or 1.2 innings at a time. Don't "closers" do that all the time? Or am I all wet?

Nixon flies out to Hamilton in right. 1 out.

Peralta grounds to SS; out at first. 2 outs.

Gutierrez, PH Dellucci, flies out to Dunn in left.

Middle of 9: 0-0 LET's GO REDS!!

[Matt700wlw]

If you're a fan off offense, this game is not for you

[KronoRed]

Narron won't allow Wayne to trade him. He's the most dependable arm he has.

Trade Narron with him

[jesusfan]

Narron won't allow Wayne to trade him. He's the most depdable arm he has.

Narron might not want him to and I don't either, unless it nets a nice young arm who throws in the mid 90's....

[Reds Fanatic]

pinch hitter, Hopper and Phillips due up.

[jesusfan]

Wow... Edwins play was awesome... I didnt get to see it...

[jesusfan]

Castro, Hop, BP...

[KronoRed]

Castro leads it off.

[jesusfan]

Castro base hit!!! woo hoo!

[Reds Fanatic]

Leadoff single to right for Castro.

[Gallen5862]

Let's get a run Reds to win this game.

[RedsMan3203]

Castro is awesome...

[KronoRed]

Here comes the bunt

[Matt700wlw]

Castro gets a hit...still stupid to use him in that situation when you don't have the lead.

[jesusfan]

okay, now do your little bunt for a hit and make the 1st basemen come and get it...

[Reds Fanatic]

Good bunt by Hopper moves Castro to 2nd.

[jesusfan]

I made a good call on that one... obviously... c'mon BP!

[Matt700wlw]

Get a hit, and it's over!

[WVRedsFan]

Castro gets our third hit. Hopper bunts him over.

"Little Ball"

[jesusfan]

Here we go BP, here we go!

[KronoRed]

Bunt again?

[jesusfan]

How great would it feel for BP to have a walkoff right here!

[jesusfan]

Bunt again?

what? why?

[jesusfan]

Bp pops to 1st.. .Dunner up...

[Reds Fanatic]

Phillips fouls out to 1st on the first pitch.

[WVRedsFan]

first pitch swing--2 outs

[KronoRed]

Up to Dunn, get ready boo birds

[Matt700wlw]

Ok, Dunn will win it - it won't top last year, though.

:D

[jesusfan]

We need ya big guy... c'mon!

[KronoRed]

what? why?

Because a pop up to the 1st baseman is a possibility ;)

[jesusfan]

dangit..

[Reds Fanatic]

Dunn grounds out to short. Extra innings again.

[vaticanplum]

This game is truly awesome. Beautiful day, i wish I was there.

[KronoRed]

Inning goes in the toilet

On to the 10th

[WVRedsFan]

on to the 10th.

[TeamBoone]

Castro (PH for Weathers) with a lead-off hit to center on the first pitch. Runner on first.

Hopper bunts Castro to second on first pitch. 1 out.

Phillips fouls out to the first baseman. 2 outs.

Dunn. Shoot, hops it to SS for the throw-out at first.

Bottom of 9: extra innings folks!

[Matt700wlw]

I guess we didn't have enough fun last night

[jesusfan]

Because a pop up to the 1st baseman is a possibility ;)

and what would a bunt accomplish in that situation with Castro already in scoring position.... I always take the 2 shots to win the game, as to bunting him to 3rd and hoping that Dunn hits an infield single or Sabathia throws a wild pitch...

[WVRedsFan]

Who will pitch?

[jesusfan]

Who will pitch?

I'm guessing Mcbeth...

[jesusfan]

crap, magic man...

[Reds Fanatic]

Majewski in.

[KronoRed]

Magic over McBeth? NO logic at all right there

[WVRedsFan]

Shakespeare, i guess, is too young. <sigh>

[guttle11]

Hafner is on deck.

Look out, barge operators.

[jesusfan]

Umps hate hippies..

[Falls City Beer]

Magic Poop.

[Matt700wlw]

Anyone catch the bumper music? Anyone?

:)

[Reds Fanatic]

Coutlangus warming up.

[KronoRed]

Infield single

[Reds Fanatic]

Infield hit by Barfield.

[jesusfan]

infield hit... I thought that was right at Gonzo, but I guess he was playing up the middle...

[Matt700wlw]

Garfield is abord as Odie comes to bat.

Magic over McBeth? NO logic at all right there

I imagine the logic is this: Majic has been pitching more than McBeth and not all that bad in this series. He got it straight in the kiester last night. No two ways about it. Dunn and Hatte can attest to the strike zone problems. Majic is throwing strikes with a lot of movement. OTH, I would have liked to have seen Narron use McBeth because the Indians don't have much of a book on him.

Wouldn't feel better, either.

Coffey has the ability to improve, his mechanics and/or head is messed up. He's better off in AAA right now.
