  #300 for Rolen!

  But Rolen homers! Wow what a season he is having
• Little Danny

  

  Rolen is having a monster year. Dude is on pace for a 30+ HR 100+ RBI season. That's tremendous for a guy that many figured to be washed up.

  Very important that Cueto doesn't give back any runs here!
• se-alum

  

  Johnny needed that inning.

  Very good point and Cueto responds. I was also fearful he'd lose concentration again. But 7 pitches(only one ball, after a first pitch strike) and he dispatches the bottom third of the order. Now the next inning for Cueto will be big also with the top of the order up for the Phils.

  OC with a great play and just as nice dig out from Votto
• mhs95_06

  Great defensive plays by Cueto, Hernandez, Cabrera, and Votto dispatch the top three in the order on 7 pitches, all strikes.
• se-alum

  

  Gotta push a couple across here!! Bases loaded for Votto, 0 outs.
• se-alum

  

  RBI single for Votto. Bases still juiced for Rolen.
• TigerNation10

  

  Base hit by Votto! 3-0
• mhs95_06

  Utley error starts off a good 2 run inning for the Reds. Gomes is in a slump!
• Little Danny

  

  Rolen gets another Ribeye with the sacrifice fly. He's now up to 53.
• mhs95_06

  Cueto has to maintain his concentration in the 7th!
• SportsAndLady

  

  Cueto 0 K's through 6...but 0 runs also
• mhs95_06

  Stubbs butchers that fly ball to deep center by by Howard.
• mhs95_06

  Rolen should have tried the play at home!
• mhs95_06

  Each defense gave away a run in the last two half innings!
• se-alum

  

  Yea, I think Rolen could've had Howard. However, it should've never gotten to that point. Stubbs misplayed that ball badly in center.
• mhs95_06

  Perfectly executed run and hit by Stubbs and Hernandez to score Stubbs from 1st base.
• mhs95_06

  Did Cueto hurt his groin on that last lunge toward the bag on the perfect bunt?
• SportsAndLady

  

  First clutch hit by Hernandez I've seen in a WHILE
• se-alum

  

  RBI single for Cabrera! 3 for 4 tonight!
• mhs95_06

  Cabrera picks up Phillips missed RBI with a two out solid single to LF. He likes those high pitches! 6-1 Reds.
• mhs95_06

  109 pitches thru the 8th for Cueto. Who will Dusty bring out for the 9th? I'd like to see Bray.
