I apologize for the lack of a game thread today on behalf of the moderators.
But at least the Reds won.

We scored seven runs?
Cubs made 3 errors and two runs were unearned. The winning rally included a Gomes Walk, a Barker PH walk and a Sutton PH 2 run Double. Blind dogs get their bone.

Bitter, table for one?

Not at all. Happy they won, but its not like they scored 7 runs in some encouraging manner for next season. It was through Cubs errors and guys who likely won't be on the team next year coming through.

Barker looks like a decent guy to have as a PH.... I bet the Reds could have used him in 1977 over Mike Lum and Champ Summers.

I've been thinking this too about Barker. As a pure pinch-hitter, the guy may have a shot. Doubt we can spare a spot for somebody in that role, though.

Agreed. He is more suited to a team that is actually in contention and has their starting 8 pretty much set. He is the old time LH PH ...like Terry Crowley...Jim Dwyer...Dane Iorg. Main guy off the bench...rarely starts....not much speed.
