Lineup looks good
Glad to see Shogo get a hit last night. If he can start getting on base, that would really help this team when they go through these stretches where they seemingly can't score a run to save their lives.

Wade Miley (4-2, 2.00 ERA) takes the mound in the second of a four-game series against the Colorado Rockies on Friday. Colorado will send right-hander German Marquez (1-4, 5.49) to the hill.
Miley was given an extra day of rest between starts but he said he felt good after throwing 114 pitches in the 3-0 win over the Cleveland Indians.
Miley is familiar with the Rockies and Coors Field from his years with the Arizona Diamondbacks. Friday will be the lefty's 16th appearance (15th start) against Colorado. He also faced them as a member of the Milwaukee Brewers and Houston Astros. In those 15 appearances, he is 8-2 with a 3.73 ERA, and in six previous starts in Denver, he is 4-1 with a 4.19 ERA.
Marquez will try to turn things around against the Reds. He has allowed 13 earned runs over 10 2/3 innings over his past three starts, all losses, but had a promising start in his loss at St. Louis last weekend. This past Sunday, he held the Cardinals to two runs - one earned - in six innings.
Marquez has faced Cincinnati twice in his career, going 2-0 with a 1.93 ERA against the Reds. In his start at Coors Field, he gave up just one run over seven strong innings on May 27, 2018.
P.S. Enjoy the game and try not to act like Aunt Bee.

I am old so I have no idea how to post photos here, but my son and I are here for the remaining games of the series and tonight the weather is absolutely perfect. First time at Coors and it’s beautiful. My son said “I could stare out at the field forever.” Amen, son.

Hey Reds, try to get your 8 run inning early tonight. While I’m still awake.
Thank you.

Marquez, unlike Chi Chi Gonzalez, actually has some stuff. But he also got obliterated in the first inning of his last home start while the Reds make him look untouchable in the first.

Here we go. Leadoff triple.
