Reds @ Pirates.....Game 2

• Ironman92

  

  Reds face a no namer Brian Burres.
  
  
  
  I honestly see no chance of winning. Heretic thinks the Reds will score 8.....apparently he's never watched the Reds face a nobody pitcher.
• CinciX12

  

  I'm excited to watch the future hall of famer Brian Burres tonight.
• Ironman92

  

  Now they are saying Daniel McCutchen will pitch for the Pirates...he's 0-1 with a 24.5 ERA.
  
  Pirates 6
  Reds 4
  
  Cueto will pitch for the Reds....another unefficient pitch count night I'd guess.
• Heretic

  

  I'd rather see McCutchen than Burres. Burres is a nobody with no future; McCutchen possibly also is, but hasn't had enough time to prove it, yet. He was solid (not good, but respectable) as a late call-up last year, but just got shelled in his first start this year. Hopefully, he settles down tonight.
• End of Line

  

  ^^^^What he said.
• CinciX12

  

  His ERA will lower to <1.50 tonight. Perfect game.

  Reds are up 1-0 .... didn't see how they scored though
• osu45804

  

  Well 1-1 now
• Rotinaj

  

  Reds really need this one to stay in the wildcard race.

  2-1 Pirates w/ the bases loaded still
• CinciX12

  

  Somehow its 3-2 Pitt. At this point I don't care.
  
  Cueto is awful.
• CinciX12

  

  Pittsburgh fans are chanting USA. Probably because of Votto being on 2nd. The announcers can't comprehend this.
• CinciX12

  

  Tie game off a sac fly by Bruce to score Votto.
• Heretic

  

  Five innings of our bullpen...you could finish in double digits scoring tonight. At least if Phillips doesn't enter moron-mode on the basepaths again.
  
  For my sake, I hope you guys bring in Ondrusak, so we can have a 3-5 run inning.
• Heretic

  

  Question for people watching on FS Ohio:
  
  When/if you go to strip clubs, have often do you actually see people act as over-the-top dorky as that dude in the Dreamgirls commercial?
• CinciX12

  

  I swear to God this team is going to give me more migraines this summer than ever before.
  
  YOU ARE ALLOWED TO SCORE RUNS GOD DAMNIT

  Reds again will have one player flirting with .300 (Joey Votto)
  
  The bottom line is this team cannot hit the baseball, sure it is obvious but what is shocking is that last year the Angels had 7 guys in their lineup who hit over .300. How is it the Reds can't seem to hit the baseball? Is this team that poorly assembled offensively?
• Ironman92

  

  Dustyball plate approaches.
  
  
  McCutchen is not a big league pitcher.....had nothing.
  
  Cueto....not efficient at all.
• Ironman92

  

  This game may fall the Reds way in the end of not....but the Pirates pulling a LaRussa and batting the pitcher 8th bit them hard. Pirates had 2 runs in, 2 outs and 2 on.....walked the bases loaded on purpose and got the pitcher out on a 12 footer.........next batter hits a HR to leadoff the next inning. You don't know how that would've went down with 2 on and the #7 hitter up with a normal #8 to follow......but it obviously could've been a lot worse than it was having to face a pitcher.
  
  I think batting the pitcher 8th is idiotic with way more negatives than positives.
• CinciX12

  

  this is not happening..
• CinciX12

  

  yup..its happening
• Ironman92

  

  COrdero is as efficient as Cueto
• Ironman92

  

  Out by a mile..good choice
• Ironman92

  

  I wouldn't swing if I was Milledge.....he'll walk you
