He's batting third instead!
He's batting third instead!
No reason at all to have him in the 3 spot over Kearns if it's some sort of anti-lefty thing, because obviously Dunn should be there.
Go Gators!

Freel/Aurilia/Lopez/Valentin up the middle, not exactly the Reds finest hour in that aspect of the game.
2 days in a of 'worst lineup ever'
Go Gators!
- McLouth singled
- Wilson lined to Dunn
- Bay singled, McLouth to third
- Ward hit a deep drive to right the Kearns caught, McLouth scored
- Wilson struck out swinging
1-0 Pirates middle of 1
Freel singles to left on the first pitch
Freel steals second
Lopez walks
Aurilia walks to load the bases
Dunn Ks swinging, 1 out
I'm not a fan of the RBI stat, but I would like to see Dunn reach 100 rbi, 100 runs and 100 walks for the second straight season, that would make him the first Red to do that. But you can probably forget about him reaching 100 run batted in. Lately it's been either a popout or strikeout with runners in scoring position.
Casey hits a sac fly to center, Freel scored & Lopez moves up. 1-1 game
Kearns Ks going too far on a 3-2 pitch, 1-1 after 1
