Neither did I - he made a heck of a catch running that one down.

Maybe they should return a call to Bedard lol

Abad with an infield hit. 1st adn 2nd.
Re: 8/31/12 - Reds at Astros
Dang - I didn't realize it on the mound but Abad is a big fella!
Re: 8/31/12 - Reds at Astros
Leake should have been out of the inning already. Hopefully he leaves the runners here.
haha that was easy.

Altuve grounds into a 6-4 FC. 0-0 after 2.

One might theorize that the Cards were would tightly coming into Cincinnti, believing that it was a must-sweep series.
Win or lose, that kind of pressure can lead into a letdown afterwards.
Not necessarily a SABR-endorsed theory on baseball, but it happens all the time in other sports like college football.

Altuve got anxious
Re: 8/31/12 - Reds at Astros
Once Barnes got a hit, I'm actually glad Abad got one too. I'd rather get Altuve out of the way than him leading off an inning. He's the guy I most respect in this lineup.

Gio loses his no-no in the 5th to Yadi on a leadoff double.

Gotta give Molina credit for being tough - didn't think he'd be back this soon!
Still hate the guy, though!

Probably the best catcher in the majors this year, sans Buster Posey. Might even be a better overall catcher than Posey. Nonetheless, I too hate him with the fury of a thousand suns.

Navarro doubles to left center.
