Reds vs Astros....Game 2

    Paul Janish has turned into a damn good all around SS.

    Janish playing good with the big first and last RBIs and then a stellar play to retire the lead-off batter in the first half inning since his team took the lead!

    Great IQ by BP.

    WTF was Bourne doing not trying to score? lol

    Defense has always been there, but his hitting always trailed his glove by a lot. However, you can see he's put in a lot of hard work and has gotten much stronger to improve his hitting.

    No idea what Bourne was doing. I figured it was gonna be real close. Then they show him standing on third!?
  • mhs95_06
    Great defensive play, a lot with the brain of BP, to get a difficult inning ending DP without the run scoring!

    I'd like to see the Reds go Chapman, Masset, Cordero in the final 3 innings. First chance to do that this year.

    I think the way the Reds perfectly executed that play, with the keys being BP's rush at the runner and then just nipping the runner at first to leave the runner hung out between first and 2nd, there was no way out of the DP with no run scoring for the Astros. They were fully prepared to throw home if the other runner took off, and efficiently pinched the runner for the 3rd out between first and 2nd.

    EV thru five with less than 100 pitches. Will Dusty send him out again?

    Volquez has really settled down. 8 K's...
  • Midstate01
    Your looking the wrong way!!
  • mhs95_06
    Good place for Stubbs to lay one down - don't think he has so far this season.

    Stubbs! This team is just to much fun to watch

    7-4

    How good is this?
  • Midstate01
    Agreed. And when Phillips is going the other way, his offense is sooooo good.
