We need this one...

OnBaseMachine
06-06-2008, 07:03 PM
We need three of four in this series.

Red in Chicago
06-06-2008, 07:11 PM
lefty with a 5.37 era...sounds like a no hitter against us tonight;)

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 07:14 PM
Back to back K's for Miller...

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 07:16 PM
Griffey walks...

OnBaseMachine
06-06-2008, 07:17 PM
Miller can be wild. The key is to be patient against him.

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 07:17 PM
Griffey steals second... just kidding... wild pitch...

TeamCasey
06-06-2008, 07:18 PM
Griffey will hit it tonight. I have some voodoo going.

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 07:19 PM
Don't even play Griffey if he can't score on that...

OnBaseMachine
06-06-2008, 07:20 PM
Griffey is S-L-O-W. Good gosh how in the world did he not score. That ball wasn't exactly smoked and it took Hermida forever to get to it and he still got Griffey at the plate. Wow.

Red in Chicago
06-06-2008, 07:20 PM
Don't even play Griffey if he can't score on that...

Ray Charles knew he was going to be thrown out on that play. It wasn't hit deep enough to right.

reds44
06-06-2008, 07:20 PM
Don't even play Griffey if he can't score on that...
Oh my goodness.

He just walked. He's not the only slow player in the majors.

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 07:21 PM
Seriously, That ball was rolled to right field... With a jump off second and decent speed there shouldn't even have been a throw... He must be really gimpy...

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 07:22 PM
Hanley singles...

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 07:23 PM
pop to Hairston... Cantu up...

OnBaseMachine
06-06-2008, 07:23 PM
It looks like Griffey was safe but I still can't believe there was even a play.

flyer85
06-06-2008, 07:24 PM
sad to watch Jr, he is Bo Diaz slow

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 07:25 PM
Cantu pops to 2nd... Hard to believe a 2nd place team has Cantu hitting 3rd...

reds44

Cantu pops to 2nd... Hard to believe a 1st place team has Cantu hitting 3rd...
The Marlins aren't in 1st.

OnBaseMachine
06-06-2008, 07:25 PM
Johnny blew three explosive fastballs right past Jacobs.

reds44
06-06-2008, 07:26 PM
Nice first inning for Cueto.

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 07:26 PM
Cueto K's Jacobs...

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 07:27 PM
The Marlins aren't in 1st.

I know, I edited it to say 2nd... You knew what I meant though...

Superdude
06-06-2008, 07:29 PM
Anyone notice Cueto pounding hard stuff up and in against lefties his last two starts? I hope he keeps that up. That gives him something to keep hitters aware of other than fastball at the knees.

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 07:29 PM
Dunn K's...

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 07:31 PM
Votto with a half swing to 3rd... 2 down

flyer85
06-06-2008, 07:31 PM
if Miller can throw strikes it will be a long night(or maybe a short one) for the Reds.

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 07:31 PM
Edwin K's... 4 K's thru 2 innings...

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 07:36 PM
Cueto K's Uggla... 1 down

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 07:36 PM
single for Gonzo...

AmarilloRed
06-06-2008, 07:37 PM
First team to 1 run wins the game tonight-It looks like we have a pitching duel tonight.

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 07:37 PM
Ross and Cantu would've been very nice bench players for the Reds...

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 07:38 PM
Ross singles.... 1st and 2nd with Treanor up...

OnBaseMachine
06-06-2008, 07:39 PM
Ross singles. Threw him four straight fastballs. A nice slider there on 1-2 probably results in a K.

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 07:39 PM
DP right here...

AmarilloRed
06-06-2008, 07:40 PM
I may have posted too soon-Marlins look like they're in business.

OnBaseMachine
06-06-2008, 07:40 PM
Groundball singles to load the bases. Cueto is throwing nothing but fastballs.

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 07:40 PM
single... bases jacked... I thought for sure that was a DP ball, but Hairston playing way to the right...

OnBaseMachine
06-06-2008, 07:41 PM
single... bases jacked... I thought for sure that was a DP ball, but Hairston playing way to the right...

That's a routine groundball to the SS normally but they were playing for the doubleplay.

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 07:41 PM
Well... there is that 1 run... bye bye... j/k

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 07:42 PM

Yeah.. but normally guys like Treanor are pull hitters or nothing...

3-0 on Ramirez. Just walk him.

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 07:44 PM
Hanley walks... bases jacked for Hermida..

Red in Chicago
06-06-2008, 07:44 PM
3-0 on Ramirez. Just walk him.

that's what i thought until he swung at that pitch way outside...oh well, walked him afterall

OnBaseMachine
06-06-2008, 07:45 PM
What a filthy changeup there to Hermida. I don't understand why he doesn't throw that pitch more often.

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 07:46 PM
Cueto K's Hermida on the 96 MPH cheddar!!!

OnBaseMachine
06-06-2008, 07:46 PM
96 mph heat on the outside corner at the knees to strikeout Hermida.

1-0 Marlins after 2.

reds44
06-06-2008, 07:46 PM
96 on the black at the knees.

Good luck.

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 07:47 PM

He doesn't want to show up Volquez...

Ok guys... which was it? A change up or heater? :D

Red in Chicago
06-06-2008, 07:47 PM
all that and it was the pitcher that got the only run in. nice job getting out of what could have been a very ugly inning

OnBaseMachine
06-06-2008, 07:48 PM
Ok guys... which was it? A change up or heater? :D

The changeup was early in the count. The 96 mph heat struck him out.

jesusfan

Bako with a hit... really?

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 07:51 PM

Bruce walks... 1st and 2nd with Griffey up...

OnBaseMachine
06-06-2008, 07:56 PM
Bruce walks. 54 pitches so far for Miller. The key is to get into the Marlins bullpen.

Red in Chicago
06-06-2008, 07:57 PM
1st and 2nd for grif...come on jr

phillips loves the lefties:cool:

Kc61
06-06-2008, 08:02 PM
Phillips can really hit those lefties.

Reds need him against lefties with this five lefty hitter lineup.

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 08:03 PM
Alonso up first next inning... my bad...

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 08:03 PM
Dunn K's again.. 2-1 Reds mid 3...

OnBaseMachine
06-06-2008, 08:03 PM
That strike three on Dunn was six inches outside. He gets screwed up the umps more than any player I've seen.

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 08:06 PM
Cantu just misses a HR... foul

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 08:06 PM
Cantu decides to straighten it up a bit... HR 2-2...

OnBaseMachine
06-06-2008, 08:07 PM
Cueto hangs a slider and Cantu homers. 2-2.

Cueto continues to struggle on the road for some reason.

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 08:07 PM
I don't think the Reds like leads...

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 08:08 PM
Now Yonder up...

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 08:09 PM

06-06-2008, 08:10 PM
Cueto K's Uggla... 2 down

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 08:10 PM
Welsh just used the word "pretty" about 5 times in 20 seconds...

OnBaseMachine
06-06-2008, 08:12 PM
96 mph blown past Gonzalez. Five K's through 3 for Johnny.

Always Red
06-06-2008, 08:14 PM
I'm not necessarily a Krivsky basher- but letting Cantu go was a big mistake. And he had history too, that suggested he should have been kept.

This team is still looking for any RH pop to go along with BP, especially off the bench.

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 08:16 PM
Votto singles... beauty of a swing...

OnBaseMachine
06-06-2008, 08:16 PM
Votto singles to left on 3-2 to begin the 4th. Miller is up to 74 pitches. If Cueto can hold the Marlins to 6 IP 3 R then I think the Reds will win.

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 08:17 PM
75 pitches for MIller...

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 08:17 PM
Edwin singles...

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 08:18 PM
Bako just missed a HR there... shew, I thought he had it... Votto goes to 3rd... with Cueto up...

Red in Chicago
06-06-2008, 08:18 PM
george got a bit too excited on that fly ball to right...

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 08:19 PM
Miller hit Cueto right in the belt buckle I think... I'd throw it at Miller's ear-hole and start an all out Bo Sox D-Rays brawl!

OnBaseMachine
06-06-2008, 08:19 PM
Cueto HBP. Bases loaded and one out for the struggling Hairston.

80 pitches for Miller.

Red in Chicago
06-06-2008, 08:20 PM

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 08:20 PM

Hairston RBI single! 3-2 Reds.

Bases still loaded for Bruce.

Pitching change. Doug Waechter coming in.

Bruce drills it to left... 4-2 bases still jacked!

OnBaseMachine
06-06-2008, 08:23 PM
Bruce RBI single to left! 4-2 and still loaded. Score about three or four more please.

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 08:23 PM
Who in the heck is the 1st base coach tonight?

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 08:24 PM
Bruce back up to .436...

TeamBoone
06-06-2008, 08:24 PM
sad to watch Jr, he is Bo Diaz slow

I'm sure a lot of that has to do with his sore knee. Someone mentioned in a different thread that they drained quite a bit of fluid off it a few days ago.

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 08:25 PM
Griffey would've hit 600 if we were playing in an elevator...

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 08:27 PM
BP K's... 4-2 Reds mid 4....

OnBaseMachine
06-06-2008, 08:27 PM
Griffey popped out and Phillips struckout. That could have been a huge inning.

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 08:30 PM
Cueto with K #6!

OnBaseMachine
06-06-2008, 08:31 PM
Cueto blows a 96 mph fastball past Ross. 6th strikeout for Cueto.

RedsManRick
06-06-2008, 08:32 PM
If I were a righty pitcher, I don't think I'd throw Phillips anything other than soft crap on the outside corner. It's amazing how reliably he waves at that stuff or weakly grounds it to the right hand side.

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 08:32 PM
wow... that wind must be bad tonight... 2 down

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 08:33 PM
Pitcher with a hit... always...

OnBaseMachine
06-06-2008, 08:34 PM
The pitcher singles on an 0-2 count. Fastball right down the middle. Throw a slider right there and its a easy strikeout. Reds pitchers get eaten alive by opposing pitchers because they always try to sneak a fastball past the pitcher. Anybody can hit a fastball.

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 08:34 PM
good play by Griff... after 4 reds 4-2...

CrackerJack
06-06-2008, 08:37 PM
Err, George just said the "Jr. had trouble with the lights in Philadelphia."

Huh? Did he even play in the OF there? I think he meant Dunn. A good example of George just talking to be talking and saying whatever comes to his mind during a broadcast. It's gotten really old over the years.

Need to win this one tonight!

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 08:38 PM
Dunn K's for the 3rd time...

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 08:39 PM
Votto singles...

Kc61
06-06-2008, 08:41 PM
Young Mr. Cueto needs to watch those mistake pitches. Like the one to the relief pitcher and the ones that allow home runs on occasion.

Otherwise, he is really throwing beautifully tonight, he's really an outstanding young pitcher. Very exciting for the Reds.

And Votto is very impressive, gaining consistency.

Always Red

Thanks for the George bashing, but Junior did the same thing Dunn did in Philly. And so did Pat Burrell.

George is correct. He's talking about the problems Junior had in Thursday's day game with the lights ON.

Edwin lined out.

Bako walks.

1st and 2nd for Cueto.

Cueto with an RBI single... woo hoo!

OnBaseMachine
06-06-2008, 08:46 PM
Johnny with his first major league hit scores Votto! 5-2 Reds.

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 08:48 PM
Hairston with a ground rule double... Bako scores... 2nd and 3rd with Bruce up.

OnBaseMachine
06-06-2008, 08:48 PM
Hairston ground rule double! 6-2 Reds.

Reds got robbed there. If that ball stays in play it's probably 7-2.

CrackerJack

Ok thanks - chalk one up for George.

Phillips pops out on 2-0. Man he does that a lot.

OnBaseMachine
06-06-2008, 08:58 PM
Hermida flied out to Dunn in shallow left. One out.

OnBaseMachine
06-06-2008, 08:58 PM
Cantu homers again. Again on a 1-2 count.

OnBaseMachine
06-06-2008, 08:59 PM
Reds are making Cantu look good.

a decent slider or change will get Cantu every time. Right there he got a fastball middle in.

Danny Serafini
06-06-2008, 09:00 PM
Jorge Cantu taking some revenge I guess.

OnBaseMachine
06-06-2008, 09:00 PM
Infield single for Jacobs. Good play by Phillips but Votto couldn't handle the hop.

Red in Chicago
06-06-2008, 09:01 PM
Phillips made an awesome pay, but Votto couldn't hold on.

RedsManRick
06-06-2008, 09:01 PM
Votto hasn't looked very comfortable scooping the ball -- not the strongest part of his game, for sure.

OnBaseMachine
06-06-2008, 09:02 PM
Cueto K's Uggla for the third time tonight. 7 K's for Cueto.

jesusfan
06-06-2008, 09:05 PM

OnBaseMachine
06-06-2008, 09:05 PM
That 2-2 pitch to Gonzalez looked awful nice. It's been called on Dunn all night. Now it's 3-2. Foul.

Now Gonzalez walks. Should have been strike three. Consistency please.

corkedbat
06-06-2008, 09:06 PM
Not trying to make Cantu into any kind of savior or anything, but his RH bat would balance bench nicely. I hated that they let him go with Castro, Hopper and Valentin still on the roster.

OnBaseMachine
06-06-2008, 09:09 PM
Welsh blaming Bako for being too tricky.

It sure would've been nice to have gotten that strike three call on Gonzalez. That same pitch has been called a strike on Dunn all night but was a ball for Gonzalez.

06-06-2008, 09:12 PM
Great pitch. Anyone with a pitch count for Johnny?

Blitz Dorsey
06-06-2008, 09:13 PM
Bako stinks at calling a game. At least Cueto got the K to end the inning with only 1 run scored, but here is Cueto throwing a great fastball tonight (95 consistently, up to 97) and Bako wants to call those cute breaking balls up by six runs!

And it's not just tonight... I've noticed this all season with Bako. He simply does not call enough fastballs.

Blitz Dorsey
06-06-2008, 09:13 PM
Great pitch. Anyone with a pitch count for Johnny?

Just over 100.

corkedbat
06-06-2008, 09:13 PM
I think that was 101 or 102

OnBaseMachine
06-06-2008, 09:13 PM
Cueto didn't have the command of his slider today but was able to battle through five innings and give the team a great chance to win. Not bad. He had great command of the fastball but just couldn't command the slider well tonight.

OnBaseMachine
06-06-2008, 09:15 PM
Dunn walks to begin the 6th.

RedlegJake
06-06-2008, 09:15 PM
He tends to let his stuff rise up in the zone too much something I think he'll get better at. When he stays at he knees he's near unhittable. All Johnny needs is to keep going out there for his starts.

OnBaseMachine
06-06-2008, 09:18 PM
Votto fielders choice, Dunn out at 2nd.

Votto steals 2nd.

OnBaseMachine

First and second for Bako.

OnBaseMachine

5 run lead and a kid pitcher with 104 pitches already. I don't know how Baker can justify this decision. If a bully can't hold a 5 run lead better than a tired 22 y/o just pack it in.

Why give the kid a break? It's not like it's really hot, he's been hit hard, or the Reds have a comfortable lead. I mean, he's only thrown 100 some odd pitches. He's got at least another 15-20 pitches in there.....

Cueto is not that fragile. He's not throwing 130 pitches like Prior and Wood did.

I thought Dusty handled that very well. Gradually he is building Cueto's confidence. He finished with, what, 110-112 pitches. That's ok. And now Cueto has a quality start, ends on a high note, gives him more confidence.

I think I'm the only one, but I like the way Dusty handles these young pitchers. The easiest thing to do there was the hook, but Dusty stuck with him and Cueto came through without too much wear and tear.

Now if Johnny comes out for the seventh, then I've got a problem. But he probably won't.

The REDS will now have a 4-16 record in games in which they did not hit a HR this year.

* Two of the four wins have come in the last three days... Brett Myers no-hit attempt ruined by Edinson Volquez and Joey Votto.

* Three of the four wins have come in the last 8 days... last Friday in 11 innings when Chipper Jones quit fielding.

* The 1st win came when the REDS beat the Mets at Shea in the 2nd game of a day-night doubleheader (Keppinger was 5-for-5).
