Giants at Reds, game 5

• mhs95_06

  Stubbs was really motoring from the beginning to score from first on a ball that was cut off that well in RF!
• mhs95_06

  That's the pitch that Joey thought he should have hit - fouled it!

  Way to earn that contract Joey

  Hope that the reliever that doesn't have it is a Giant. But Bochy has a lead big enough now that he can get a reliever that doesn't have it out before his lead goes away. Of course 6-2 is not nearly as bad as 6-0, but it would have been nice if Cozart or Votto could have made it 6-3. Imperative the Reds allow no more runs!

  Joey will have a monster season next year. He's gonna be pissed. He's clearly not healthy though, can't push off his legs at all.

  Pretty bad, but there is still time to win this game.

  Reds were pretty damn good this year..imo the best team in mlb. We just have an idiot for a manager. Point blank, he cost us this amazing team.
  
  This series is over if cueto doesn't get hurt. That killed the rotation, which is killing s now. Just think, instead of cueto game 4 we had to pitch Mike Leake, who is, well, awful.

  I see your point. Playing through an injury is tough to do.

  Cueto's injury isn't an excuse. You have to be able to adjust to injuries in the big leagues, especially the playoffs.

  This. The team did just fine without Votto, so they should be able to do just fine without Cueto.

  Tying run at the plate in Hanigan

  I mostly agree with this but the loss of a CY Young candidate is HUGE.
• Rotinaj

  

  Fuck you dusty and hanigan. FUCKING STUPID to run.
• osu45804

  

  WHY DUSTY WHY
• Rotinaj

  

  God damnit
• Midstate01

  

  That was NOT a strike!
• Mulva

  

  I would love to be able to see the end of this one. Any chance of an imminent rain delay?
• Tiger2003

  

  That is a head scratcher for ya.
• gport_tennis

  That same pitch was a ball over and over for latos
• vball10set

  swing the fucking bat!!!
• osu45804

  

  Now Stubbs will just K to end the inning
• mhs95_06

  It was a strike, just not for Latos, but Haningan knowing they are running cannot take a pitch that has a chance to be called strike 3! That's two innings Hanigan has killed!
• Tiger2003

  

  So is the Ump screwing the Reds or are they just pissing down their leg.
• vball10set

  you CAN NOT take that pitch, especially when you know they're running--foul it off if you have to, but you can't take it!!!!
• osu45804

  

  Duhsty'd
• Rotinaj

  

  Maybe it was BARELY a ball but i 100% blame Hanigan. You HAVE to swing at that especially knowing the runners are going. Which they shouldnt have been to begin with. Fuckin dusty strikes again.
