Reds vs Giants...Game 2

• Ironman92

  

  Cingrani keep this going? Hard to imagine. Giants couldn't play any worse and slumping Reds starting to turn it around.
  
  I wouldn't bet on this one.
  
  I'm 9-6 on the season....and my runs per game has to be the best of those with a few starts.

  Reds suck.

  Ryan Vogelsong, career 5.08 ERA against the Reds and it's 4.57 at GABP. I could see the Reds winning this, but no way Leake beats Bum on Thursday.
• Azubuike24

  

  Also, we'll see how Price handles Mesoraco and the outfield. Mesoraco HAS to start on Thursday against Bumgarner, and I'd imagine we will see Ludwick and possibly Heisey as well. Tomorrow is when Price should get creative with the lineup if he wants to rest some guys because Thursday is Bumgarner and Friday is Hamels. Mesoraco has to play both. Tomorrow should be...

  Leake seems to do pretty well against top teams.
  
  I have no facts to back that up, and I may be completely wrong, but I feel like he does do well vs teams I think are going to rock him (good teams).
• Azubuike24

  

  I think Leake proves us wrong more often than not, but I can see Thursday being a game where he goes 7, allows like 3 runs, 5 hits, but the Reds can't muster anything. Against Bumgarner, especially if Price decides that's the game to run out a bum lineup (instead of tomorrow), the margin for error for Leake will be extremely slim. He doesn't do well in those situations, despite always keeping you in games.

  Absolutely. I've been having beautiful dreams of Taveras hitting first only to wake up and realize it wasn't real. Super depressing.

  I've been having the same dreams except with Stubbs and having the SS bat second no matter what. What a simpler time it was!

  Frazier!!!
  
  Of course it should be 2-0, but Billy for greedy(and a terrible jump).
• wildcats20

  

  Back to back doubles by BP and Bruce, 2-0.
  
  Need something from Meso here to really open up the gates.

  Lol I think I could tolerate him a little more if he didn't have his pants ABOVE his knees.
• Ironman92

  

  I think the Reds coming back and winning this would really show me this team is ready to make a legitimate push.
• Ironman92

  

  C'mon guys....I really want this one. I think this is a big statement!
• wildcats20

  

  I agree. But I'm not confident at all in them coming back tonight.
• Ironman92

  

  Shit damn fuck
  
  This one is over....crappers coming up in the 9th
• mhs95_06

  So what have we got in the bottom of the 9th, hopefully down just one? Romo vs. Ludwick, Pena, Cozart, Schumaker?

  The 8th was the inning to get it done, especially with the lead-off error. Bruce must lead the team in % of plate appearances where he is completely unproductive!
• Ironman92

  

  Cozart ends it with a Heisey
  
  Terrible fucking last 5 innings
• mhs95_06

  Reds bullpen has to be up to a C by now, but Reds take a very distasteful loss after having a 2 run lead with no one on and two out in the 6th. But Cingrani gives up all the runs SF needs to win on 6 pitches before they could get the 3rd out of the 6th. Also blame has to go to the Reds offense for not getting more than two runs out of their early opportunities.

  Nope.....C- and going up, but not C range quite yet. I'll keep you posted.
