Astros at Reds, game1

  • thavoice
    Very disappointing so far.


    Heard on WLW this morning........that there was a study done on 10,000 MLB games.......and AVG skyrocket on cloudy days......

    Reds starting pitching has been abysmal. Hard to win when you are down 5 runs a few innings into the game

    Gomes sucks. Seriously stop playing him so much, or at the very least move him down in the order.

    Votto was boneheaded for trying to steal that base towards the middle of the game, and then was waaay too overanxious in his final two ABs. I can give him a pass though, he and Phillips are the only guys who seem to produce night in and night out.

    Votto can do whatever the hell he wants for all I care..one of a very small amount of players on the Reds doing anything this year

    Game 2 has been quite a show offensively...thank goodness Chris Valaika hit a triple. The Reds ONLY freaking hit...

    One Goddam hit.

    I dont think you can say Goddam on the air.

    Doesnt matter...no one is listening.


    Hou hit a HR? last looked it was 1-0.....who did CoCo give it up to
  • SportsAndLady
    Didn't even know there was a game..thank God I didn't pay attention to this shit, it would have made me angry.

    Stubbs walks to lead off the 9th..a 9th inning rally is EXACTLY what this club needs.
  • Heretic
    No. Both runs were off Wood in the third. Cordero did give up a double to Barmes, but then got Towles out to end the inning without any runs surrendered.

    It was 2-0. Coco allowed a double but got out of it. The Astros had 2 RBI singles off of Wood in the top of the 3rd. Otherwise Travis pitched great...but got no support.

    It's starting to feel like this year is the opposite of last year. Instead of the offense picking up the pitching, or vice versa, when one caves this year, the other isn't responding. The Reds are finding new ways to lose games this year instead of win them. It's either no scoring or horrible pitching.

    1st and 3rd, no outs
    Votto up
  • Heretic
    A good swing in this situation last night and the game could have gotten interesting. In this situation, it's the game.
  • SportsAndLady
    Votto singles!

    2-1 now

    1st and 2nd, still no outs

    end it BP!
  • se-alum
    Runners on 1st & 2nd, 0 outs, Phillips coming to the plate down 2-1.
  • Azubuike24
    Bruce hasn't made contact in 3 games. Does BP bunt? Lyon is pretty awful...
  • se-alum
    @DatDudeBP ties it up!
  • SportsAndLady
    Phillips singles!

    We almost assuredly have to win this one now!
  • se-alum
    Bruce wins it!!!!
  • Heretic
    If the combination of Bruce, Hanigan and Janish can't get one more run across the plate against a pitcher who's given up a walk and three straight hits without retiring anyone...those guys need a public flogging to send a message.
  • SportsAndLady
    Haha game!

    That was so awesome

    Go 8 innings with 1 (god damn) hit...then 5 straight reach base in the 9th scoring 3 runs without even recording an out
  • Heretic
    And it happens while I typed that. No public floggings today, I guess.
  • Azubuike24
    Yeah you gotta love 1 hit through 8 and then 4 hits and 3 runs without even surrendering an out in the 9th...what a crazy sport.

    Its almost like they planned it that way lol

    Dusty: "Hey guys, just wake up in the 9th today..we need a little rest"
  • se-alum
    Hopefully this wakes them up! Last time the were below .500, they reeled off 9 wins in the next 10 games!
  • Midstate01
    That last as bat made waking up at 6:30am to watch worth it!!!!
