    when does the game start?

    LaRue?!

    I'd prefer Austin there to get some good pitches with JR and Dunn behind him.

    The only reason I see Larue batting second is if he owns prior.

    Larue number two.

    vs Prior (Career) ab 16 h 6 hr 0 obp .688 slug .444 avg .375

    Question is, will he try to get plunked during his first at bat or wait till later in the game.

    Yeah, but Jr. will definitely see some good pitches in front of Dunn!

    Re: 8/9 Game Thread - Reds vs. Cubs

    LaRue is 6/16 lifetime with 5 doubles v. Prior. Must be what Narron's looking at.

    Other notables:
    Lopez - 2/10 w/ 4k
    Junior - 2/8 w/ 1 2b, 2k
    Dunn - 4/17 w/ 3 2b, 9k
    Casey - 4/22 w/ 2k
    Kearns - 3/12 w/ 2 HR, 5k
    Olmedo - 0/2

    ---That said, nice to see Casey ahead of Kearns in the order, eh?

    I think Miley did this (LaRue 2nd), last year against Cleveland and everyone was all over him about it.

    According to Marty last night, that was Narron's reasoning.

    No game on FSN Ohio but the game is on WGN for those who get it.
