  Maybe if one of his pop-ups get caught in a jetstream.

  I have a good feeling about tonight. No legit reason for it tho at the moment.

  Chris Valaika and Sam Lecure were called up from Louisville. It would be Valaika's major league debut.
• dave

  I called the LeCure move last night, but never thought Valaika would be up. Maybe OCab will be out til Sept 1. Who is going on the DL/ getting sent down other than Edmonds?
• Azubuike24

  

  Volquez or Leake to the "fake" DL

  Smith was optioned, per Fay.

  FSN really needs to get their shit together. Audio/video sync is still screwed up.
• osu45804

  

  Lopez pops out w/ the bases loaded in the 9th and the Pirates beat the Cardinals 4-3
• mhs95_06

  Pirates get 2 in the 6th and 2 in the 7th to take a 4-2 lead on Wainwright, then Meek holds on in a thrilling 9th and the Pirates win 4-3. Now the Reds are guaranteed to be in first place starting the home stand Friday.
• wildcats20

  

  Not what I was expecting from that game when I saw the Cards go up 2-0 in the 1st.
• wildcats20

  

  So apparently it's only the HD feed that is all screwed up..

  The Reds have done their share to make their good breaks this year....but things are going well when the Pirates snag a win from Wainright and then get through the midst of tth Cards order in the 9th
• mhs95_06

  So my comment from last night still has a chance to be true! That the best chance for the Reds to have the lead anytime during this series may have been the one they had in the first last night and failed to take advantage of. Behind 3-0 to start the 2nd could likely mean no lead tonight.

  nonsense poopy pants
• Laley23

  

  Fuck Travis Wood....so far....tonight.
• osu45804

  

  Well back to back nights down 4 or more runs early....
• mhs95_06

  I think they got Valaika up because Janish needs a day off. He's getting a little shaky on defense and slow with the bat. If the game continues like it is and they lose tonight, he'll have a sub line-up in tomorrow and probably continue the trend so that it will be that the last 3 series they've lost were by sweeps. But sweeps are like losing three series, or losing four series in the case of 4 game sweeps.

  this sucks

  I doubt you see Chris make his big league debut at SS.
• mhs95_06

  I'm thinking he gets into tonights game and then starts tomorrow. If you assume Janish doesn't start, then who starts at SS Cairo or Valaika?
• swamisez

  

  Wood getting way too much of the plate tonight, and not winning the inner half. 7 runs through 4........Ouch.
  
  Reds are gonna limp home after tomorrow. They deserve a good homestand turnout after this road trip.
