Reds vs Mariners...Game 1

• mhs95_06

  Playing the infield in after a one out triple paid off for the Reds! The was the Ms hve been doing their ABs with runners one, I would have bet they'd have gotten that run in, but if it was the Reds, I'd bet against him scoring.
  
  Reds get a walk, bunt, and then don't score. cozart not trying to plink a hit in for a big 2 out RBI, but instead trying to hit it over everyone, and hits it good, but to the CF! The Votto leads off with a hit,and on a full count to BP, Votto is going abd can't even beat the force on a BO bleeder, and then BP is out by 40' at first to complete the DP on a paltry effort by BP at running. I've never seen anyone who slows down so much on his slide as Votto! An accomplished base runner would have beat that.

  i know what you're talking about, but that was painful to read.

  What was Joey's body language, just after contact on his HR, saying? Was it "finally got good contact like I should more often"?

  Kiss of death for the Reds - lead-off hitter on 2nd! Did that ball take a bad hop toward the foul line(didn't show an angle that would show that)? Hard to believe Morales could miss that short a hop!

  Meso, by not moving the runner, tripled the difficulty for Heisey to get the runner in.

  It looked to be a little off balanced and it just went about 440.

  Choo goes down on 6 pitches from the left hander to seal the non-scoring inning after runner on 2nd with no out. 3 breaking ball balls, and 3 fastball strikes, two taken and one fouled.

  Really hoping to get swept this series. Griffey, Buhner, and Edgar Martinez will probably have 7 dingers each.

  Difference in the game -- situational hitting!

  Good start. Hopefully we come out tomorrow and keep playing well. I bet we don't see Franklin. He was limping at the end of the game still.
