  Did I miss something, did Heisey do something to put himself in the doghouse? I can't understand how hes not getting more starts

  For his career, lefties hit .250 off Josh Johnson. Righties only hit .232. So technically, Dusty is playing the percentages by starting Edmonds and Nix. Then again, Josh Johnson has dominated everyone this year, so I'm not sure how much it really matters. It's gonna be a tough task either way.

  Cueto will not appeal, he will serve his suspension starting today
• SportsAndLady

  

  Which means Bailey will start sunday.
• Azubuike24

  

  And unfortunately, Leake will stay in the rotation and start tomorrow...
• mhs95_06

  I don't think Wood can come back up for ten days, unless there is an injury but not a suspension.
• mhs95_06

  Volquez gets thru the 1st on 14 pitches. But he gave up a one out, 4 pitch walk, and wild pitched him to 2B, where he died.
• mhs95_06

  How about that, BP runs hard out of the box!
• osu45804

  

  1st to 3rd ... thats what we do in Cincinnati
• mhs95_06

  BP makes that play at 3rd much closer than it needed to be if he just slides to the inside of the bag.
• osu45804

  

  Three straight hits off Josh Johnson... 1-0 Reds
• mhs95_06

  Keep the base hits coming against this stud. Don't try to overdo it like the StL series! 1-0 lead.
• osu45804

  

  4 Straight to begin the game... 2-0
• osu45804

  

  3-0 .... But Rolen thrown out at 3rd for the 2nd out
• mhs95_06

  22 pitches and two runs before Johnson gets an out.
• mhs95_06

  First lead for the Reds this week. Volquez needs to not "give" the Marlins anything via walks or otherwise.
• mhs95_06

  Volquez thru two on 23 pitches, with his worst count in the 2nd at 2-0 when Stanton did him a favor by hitting an easy fly out on the next pitch.
• mhs95_06

  Janish with an excellent job taking two strikes, then gets a 7 pitch walk to start the 2nd, giving EV a chance to bunt.
• mhs95_06

  Why doesn't Nix just try for a base hit on the 2-1 pitch instead of trying to crank a HR?
• mhs95_06

  Reds have Johnson up to 45 pitches for six outs, but they failed to get that important run in from 2nd or 3rd in the 2nd.
• mhs95_06

  Hanley has no valid complaint at all on that called 3rd strike for the 2nd out of the 3rd!
• mhs95_06

  Cueto put another zero up in the 3rd, but throws 19 pitches. Too many balls to the pitcher and Morrison!
• osu45804

  

  Rolen leadoff Double to begin the 3rd
• mhs95_06

  Edmonds didn't need to worry about getting Rolen to 3rd with one out for Bruce as that won't be an advantage for Bruce!
• osu45804

  

  Wow what a slide by Rolen!! 4-0 Reds
