Game 12 - Cincinnati Reds (Travis Wood) at San Diego Padres (Tim Stauffer)

• Azubuike24

  

  Reds go for the sweep. Figured I'd keep it going with the threads. I'd imagine that Hernandez will be back behind the plate and Francisco will get the start at third with a righty on the mound. Have to think Renteria will get the nod at shortstop as well.

  All I gotta say is, thank goodness this wont be a 10pm start time.
• Azubuike24

  

  I kinda like the late starts...but I'm also a night owl...usually games in San Diego end with bad outcomes though so the last two "late nights" have been nice.
• Terry_Tate

  

  In high school and college the late starts weren't so bad, but getting up at 7 makes it rough, and I usually need more sleep than most. Definitely been nice having these end up as wins though as you said.

  I love the late starts. Means the game comes on around 4 for me. Feels more normal then watching at 1.
  
  Wood will pitch well tomorrow!!

  I have been dragging all week thanks to these late night games. Thankfully the Reds keep posting W's. 2.5 games up in the central already.

  Prob the only sport I dont like to watch dvr'd
• dave

  with LeCure pitching so well Wood probably is feeling a little heat. If he can paint the corners in a late afternoon game he should be tough to hit.

  I like to watch it live but then pause it for like 20 minutes that way I can buzz through the commercials and mound visits. But didn't really have a choice with the San Diego games. There's no chance of me staying awake past 11:30

  Haha yea that probably speeds the game up under 2hrs or close to it I'd think.

  Same here. fell asleep in the 8th both games...but last night woke up just in time to see the local kid, Cory Luebke, pitch.
• swamisez

  

  is the Luebke the OSU kid? He must have gotten hit pretty hard. 6 runs with 2 outs in the 11th. Ouch.

  Yes he is.

  DVR every game and watch every game in about 90-120 minutes. It's awesome. I just hope FSN HD is more reliable.

  Yep.....he is a graduate of Maria Stein Marion Local High school in west central ohio. A big time football school.

  I think it's time for Chapman to move to the 8th inning slot, and Smith or Ondrusek into the 7th inning slot until Masset gets straight, which he eventually will.
