Dodgers (Kershaw) @ Reds (Cueto--4 PM

• dave

  Cueto should be used to it. Pretty great play by Votto there. When it left his hand I thought it was headed to Stubbs.
• SportsAndLady

  

  Yeah I heard Cueto is in great shape, too. Runs more than any other player on the team.
• SportsAndLady

  

  We might not get a hit against Kershaw
  
  Just made BP and Votto look silly, tough to do
• dave

  Yeah that was an ugly 3 ABs.
  
  I've never heard that about Cueto, nice to see him and Bruce produce after signing the big contracts.
• SportsAndLady

  

  Hernandez looked like he forgot a man was on 2nd base lol barely even tried for that
• mhs95_06

  Bruce wasn't "swinging at the right pitches" in that AB!
• mhs95_06

  At least Jonny used 10 pitches from Kershaw before he K'd!

  And that only got Kershaw up to a pace of 113 pitches for 9 innings.
• mhs95_06

  Johnny couldn't put up another zero in the 3rd, the 3rd time the lead-off batter got a hit.
• Midstate01

  

  Need to quit striking out and get some hits!
• Midstate01

  

  Another lead off man on for LA
• SportsAndLady

  

  Nice DP there.
  
  Soon as LA scored that run, I said "game over"
  
  Reds don't hit good pitchers..and Kershaw is one of the best.
• Midstate01

  

  Stubbs k's....
• SportsAndLady

  

  Votto, the machine
• Midstate01

  

  A hit!!!
• SportsAndLady

  

  Votto is good for a baserunning blunder every now and then
• mhs95_06

  Kershaw facing the minimum thru 4 innings averaging just 12 pitches per inning even though he's averaging 1.5 Ks per inning.
• dave

  God this is ugly. Lucky run by LA, no hard hit balls that inning.
• Midstate01

  

  I've never seen a pitcher look so unhittable.
• mhs95_06

  Kershaw and Cueto now even on pitches at 65 thru 5 innings as Kershaw Ks 3 in the 5th, but used up 17 pitches because Rolen, Bruce, Gomes couldn't hit it fair!
• mhs95_06

  Cueto with an 8 pitch inning! Could Johnny get a complete game and the Reds then beat the closer? Surely Dusty won't tank Johnny out for a pinch hitter this half inning. Just tell him to use as many pitches up as he can on Kershaw.
• mhs95_06

  Poor AB by Janish there popping up on the first pitch, then Cueto gets the sac down, but that's two outs in two pitches for Kershaw.
• SportsAndLady

  

  Come on Stubbs..do something (for once)
• mhs95_06

  BP needs to get an early pitch before he gets the low change-up with two strikes.
• SportsAndLady

  

  Nice BP!!
