Bruce grounds out to 1st to end the inning. But it's 3-0 good guys.

Yep. Or until he lays off the ones in the dirt. I still think a day or two off would do him a world of good.Originally Posted by OldRightHander
I don't think I've ever seen a Reds team so willing to take a walk. I really hope this is a trend. Making something happen on the bases is great and all, but simply having the guys on the bases is a wonderful place to start.
Games are won on run differential -- scoring more than your opponent. Runs are runs, scored or prevented they all count the same. Worry about scoring more and allowing fewer, not which positions contribute to which side of the equation or how "consistent" you are at your current level of performance.
Central update:
Rockies up 6-5 on the Buccos in the 9th
Houston up 6-1 on the Marlins in the 7th
Cubs leading Brewers in the 7th, 5-4
Cards & Giants tied 1-1 in the 2nd
Its important that Leake got a lead to start off with.
Grounder back to Leake. Bloomquist gone.
If Leake's working quickly and getting groundballs, it'll be a long day for the D-backs. Let's hope that's the case.
I couldn't believe the love Bloomquist was getting on the DBacks broadcast the other night. (Watched that feed for the HD) Look at the back of the baseball card much Mark Grace?
Johnson with a grounder to Phillips. Quickly 2 down.
Upton crushes one...hits the top of the wall. Played perfectly by Jay and holds him to a single.
6 IP 0 R for Willis today for the Bats
They moved Willis back to starting? I hadn't heard that.
Don't know the reasoning, but yes they did.
Line drive single to right from Drew. 1st & 2nd.
Jay Bruce can play defense.
Come on Mike. Need a scoreless frame here.
