Reds @ the first place brew crew Game 1

  • SportsAndLady
    Need a win.

    They are hard to enjoy. The Brewers will wake them up.

    Need the starters to go more than 6 inn. I trust Jumbo, white jumbo and Chapman.

    Continue winless in the second half.

    Skip in RF and Heisey in LF?

    Isn't RF the more difficult position?

    Depends on the geography of each in the local park, which field figures to get the most work with the pitcher and line-up, with the slicing balls to the opposite field being the toughest. I'd say Heisey would get to more balls which would give him the edge in which field to put him in, but the stronger arm may be the biggest factor. Does Skip have the stronger arm by a good margin?

    Latos hurt himself again! On his last pitch of the 2nd, and limped off.

    Wonderful. Hopefully it's nothing but stiffness.
  • wildcats20
    Wouldn't that classify as blocking the plate??
  • gport_tennis
    Mat latos takes 9 seconds to go third to home
  • gport_tennis
    Damn...that's some bad luck there
  • wildcats20

    Left field looks a lot tougher tonight! lol
  • mhs95_06
    Are the Reds now last in the league in defense since the all-star break?

    Lol....nothing hit to RF

    Heisey gets tricked and then loses one for two gaffes

    That ball Gomez hit took 7 seconds to land...not sure I've ever seen that before...too bad Heisey didn't see it either
  • wildcats20
    He's out.

    Bullshit call on ringing Mesoraco up. Not even close to a swing, let alone one the home plate umpire should call solo.
  • Ironman92
    That's the worst check called strike by a HP ump that I've ever witnessed. I'd be OK if they make that call the first base guy every time...HP not even allowed to call

    My thoughts as well.

    There is no way, unless it's blatantly obvious, that it is possible to tell from BEHIND the batter.

    If it's not really even borderline on the swing side....ok I guess. This one wasn't even borderline swing.
