Reds Vs. Giants: Game 3

• charliehustle14

  What blows my mind is that Votto (.421) leads Pujols (.414) and all other hitters in OBP, despite the fact that Albert has been given 24 IBB opposed to a mere 3 to Votto

  I think this means that Albert is a better out-of-the-zone hitter, meaning that pitchers don't have as much luck with Albert as they do against Votto trying to get him to successfully(for the pitcher) chase balls out of the zone and make outs when they try to pitch around them. So they just outright give Pujols an intentional walk.

  Well the Reds give the Giants a run with a wild pitch and the runner scores... 10 - 4

  Heisey as S&L said.
  
  And yeah that was an absolutely TERRIBLE call.

  Hirschbeck has been god-awful behind the plate today. Terribly inconsistent.
• mhs95_06

  I hope the Reds don't mimic the Braves today as they had a 10-1 lead in Colorado, and now in the 8th, the Rockies have taken the lead, 11-10!

  yeah he got hit in the hand if you missed it but he stayed in for an inning or two. probably needs to get ice on it.
