  Exactly. That was an amazing play in a critical situation.

  Lol yet we're throwing him out there in this game. Dusty, folks.

  Yeah I did actually.

  He is going to throw a fucking no-hitter.

  Fuck this team. A ball out of the infield would be nice. At least hockey is on.
• wes_mantooth

  

  I know you guys are bitchy, but be reasonable....he is throwing a heavy ball tonight....no one would be doing anything with it. Not the 95 Indians...not the 27 Yankees. Sometimes the pitcher is that good. That is the downfall of a one game playoff

  Todd Frazier has had 2 great defensive plays AND the best AB of the night.
• se-alum

  

  Good lord Cozart, this is the fucking playoffs. Make a play.
• wildcats20

  

  I know that ball was hit hard as shit, but Cozy HAS to make that play. At least keep it in front of him.

  I'd drill mccutcheon next at bat.
• Terry_Tate

  

  No heart, no fight, no urgency. This team lost its last 5 with everything on the line. I fucking hate Dusty Baker. Todd Frazier is the only one who looks like he gives a shit tonight.

  Be reasonable? lol
  
  Wouldn't it be reasonable to believe we can beat the Pirates?
• Midstate01

  

  I'm thinking positive. Get no hit...that'd for sure get Baker fired!!!
• Midstate01

  

  Pirates fans are fair weather douchers. But theyve been great tonight.

  Fair enough. Still frustrating that they pretty much blew every opportunity to not be in this position tonight.

  Not always. You can be playing the Houston Astros...and if a pitcher is on, you're fucked. Pretty simple really.
  
  This is why I wish it was a best of three or something

  Hate the 1 game playoff. Liriano was just nasty at home this year. 1.47 era. Can't be too surprised that he's dealing so far.
• friendfromlowry

  Put in Ondrusek. Let's see them chant his name.
• wildcats20

  

  55 pitches, he's done.

  If we cant get at least 2 runs in a playoff game it is 100% on the Reds. I don't care if its Randy Johnson out there throwing 900 mph, not scoring any runs is just pathetic.

  The reds have choked in the playoffs 3 of the last 4 years. No hit by philly and swept, up 2-0 vs SF and lost 3-2, now this.
  
  this is their 3rd appearance in 4 seasons..they should be able to beat the damn pirates
• justincredible

  

  Choo's on base. Woo!
