    Good News....Heisey will lead off the bottom of the 16th.

    Who is this pitching?

    He's made Beltran and Holiday look like fools.

And it's not like he has never gotten a hit before. There is no difference in sending him up there compared to another half dozen players on the Reds IMO. Maybe just send them up there telling him to try to get down a bunt single. It worked out tonight to make it a tie, and I'm glad, but it's not always going to work out perfectly.
    Then send the other six up that don't have the speed to steal 2nd and save the one that does for that situation

    Who the fuck knows....probably someone throwing 98 mph.

    Adams didn't bunt.

    Haha, Allen Craig going down. Best play of the night for the Cards.

    What dessert will the Reds have after the game?
  • Ironman92
    I'm still fucking giggling like my wife after 2 wine coolers

    Thom, quit harping on you can't believe Heisey bunting with 2 out. I think it was a good strategy with a runner on 3rd, you don't need a long single. Choo just blew it! Now take a shot at the bunt to get on to start the bottom of the 16th, and keep the string going that the Reds haven't trailed at the end of any of the 15 innings so far tonight.

    His point is taken though. A) you don't bunt at that pitch and B) you have nothing to gain by taking an extended lead.

    It takes a perfect bunt to beat it out and score a run anyway.

    Where's Lutz?

    Good game. Good effort.

    He didn't bunt that pitch, he only tried. The over extended lead was the problem!

    If anyone ever had a thought that the Reds could win in the postseason under Dusty tonight should just end that thought permanently.

    I am not sure where the third baseman was playing at to know whether or not it was a good move at all. If it works, he is praised for having the balls to do, and execute, such a play.
