“I don’t care,” Votto said of passing his friend and former teammate. “He’s in the past. Bye-bye, Jay.”
With an extra inning game that lasted until midnight last night and two games today, I expect that every position player will start at least one game. Look for Bruce, Byrd, Peña, and DeJesus to start in Game 2.
Eric Stratton, Rush Chairman. Damn glad to meet ya.
Maybe Bruce and Bryd are in limbo pending a trade?

No FSO TV in the first game today. Only Cubbies TV I assume.

Oh my to that outfield.
In all seriousness, that may have a chance to be on some mythical top 10 list of all time starting OF combos for least combined slugging.
What does Suarez have to do to be put near the top of the lineup?
...the 2-2 to Woodsen and here it comes...and it is swung on and missed! And Tom Browning has pitched a perfect game! Twenty-seven outs in a row, and he is being mobbed by his teammates, just to the thirdbase side of the mound.
Cubs lineup. Babe Schwarber back in there after 13 innings behind the plate last night.
1. Chris Coghlan (L) LF
2. Kyle Schwarber (L) C
3. Anthony Rizzo (L) 1B
4. Jorge Soler (R) RF
5. Kris Bryant (R) 3B
6. Chris Denorfia (R) CF
7. Jonathan Herrera (S) 2B
8. Kyle Hendricks (R) P
9. Addison Russell (R) SS

Bruuuuuuuuce?
The combined career SLG for this afternoon's #Reds OF is .352, which is also Pokey Reese's career SLG.

yeah, saw that from Joel a minute ago on twitter - would love to see starting OFs in the last 50 years for any one game as SLG - challenged as today's is. This is really quite a moment for us all to savor.
I look forward to the Schumaker era of Reds baseball ending one day.

A friend of mine on another board posted this - not sure if it is his own quick work or he saw this somewhere:
Since 2000, there are 440 OFs with 500+ PAs. Your boys rank 398th, 407th and 434th in isoP.
I heard Price say that everybody was going to get a start today in one game or the other.
Are you allowed ghost runners & ghost 1b-men in double headers?If Votto sits the second game, who plays 1st since we don't have a backup 1B?

I don't have to listen to Thom today. For two whole games.
It's like Christmas.
