Reds Win! :5 smilies:

Beating a team battling to stay out of the cellar better help their confidence. Luckily the leagues bottom 3 are shaping up to be terrible again this year. :tu

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

No go for Yoyo. :bh Here comes the pen to make it worse.:hn

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

the bottom half of our lineup is just freakin' pathetic.:bh PATHETIC!

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Crap, I forgot they played today. Maybe I will turn on the radio.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Man, they are bad on 'get away day' this season. :td

Stubbs should take notes from Fukudome on some patience to draw a walk, get on base and not strikeout in the leadoff spot. :hm

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Reds win! Reds win! :banger :) :tu :banger :tu

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

I did not expect a win last night.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Why not? We are awesome :D

Re: Red's Fans Check in

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

:rolleyes:

Drew Stubbs is AWESOME! 0-4 and a K, taking the lead a little further last night, now he is up 3 :tu

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Didn't see it, but looks like it was a beat down by looking at the score.

Reds win!

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Yeah it was, what did the Giants do to deserve that? Nice win!

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Lincecum pitched like doo doo and the Reds took advantage, hell even Stubbs walked 3 times. :sh

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Reds win! Reds win! :banger :tu :banger :) :banger

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Thankfully we don't have to listen to those Homers on FSN telling me that Drew Stubbs is the best leadoff hitter in baseball and Jay Bruce is the best RF in recent baseball history. :rolleyes:

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

"Drew Stubbs, not your typical leadoff hitter...... leads the MLB in strikeouts..... not very good as a lead off." :r Its nice to have the refreshing announcing of guys who aren't super homers. :tu

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

I know EV's a pitcher, but if he's gonna pitch in the bigs, he HAS to learn how to run the bases.:bh

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

The Giants got lucky that they got Heisey out for the final out. The commentator even said that there was a "dangerous hitter with power" on deck. He was referring to Stubbs :tu

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

yeah, but Stubbs always chokes in those type of situations. When he starts swinging for the fences, it usually results in a K. I smelled a K coming a mile away, but the opportunity never arose.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

The Giants didn't get lucky in that series, the Reds got lucky the Giants keep losing players. The Giants lost their second baseman, for possibly the season, are playing without an All-Star catcher and Lincecum had the worst outting since his rookie year and the Reds could only win 2 out of 4.

Stubbs was due for another strikeout to extend his major league lead. Nothing like a lead off hitter with an OBP in the top 200 in the MLB and an average in the 180's in the league. :rolleyes:
Hahahahahaha. Thats funny. :r ;s

Stubbs pretty much showed tonight that he has nothing to do with this teams success or lack there of. He gets on base and they don't win, he strikes out 4 times a game and they can. Solution: trade him away for Reyes. :tu

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Trolleydodgers then most of the AL East. Not a good sign for the Reds coming up.:hn

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

As far as Stubbs is concerned, I'm not sure he should be traded, but he is definitely not a leadoff hitter. We need a leadoff hitter, but I think Stubbs would be much better in the 6-8 hole in the lineup each night. Yes, he leads the MLB in Strikeouts, but I'd take his offense anyday over Renteria's/Janish's/Gomes'/Lewis'.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

We won last night. Where's Dan?

:wo:wo:banger:tu:banger

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

And this one belongs to the Reds! :banger :banger :tu :) :banger

I fell asleep last night after the 4th inning. The game was going so slow. Hiroki Kuroda is a human rain-delay. For crying out loud, throw a damn pitch!

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

You did better than me. I was out before it even started.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

I saw some of the Reds game Sunday. That pitcher dude can really put some mustard on his fastball, and that one outfielder guy is fast as lightning.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Come on Tom, you don't know that the pitcher is Travis Wood and the outfielder guy is Drew Stubbs? :r

You slay me Tom :r

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

I like to watch the Reds, but I have to tune out those loudmouth announcers.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

:r

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

You didn't know they are all destined to be MVP's, Gold Glover's and HOF'ers? :hm:rolleyes:

Reds win! Reds win! :banger :tu :) :tu :banger

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Cueto deserved that one. Best arm we've got right now.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

I agree. If I must listen, I'd rather listen to the radio announcers, Marty and the Cowboy.
:r

Now all the rage is our gold glove all stars in the minor leagues. Cozart, Alonso, Frazier, and Sappelt.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

:r Tom was responding to what I said in the NHL thread

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Add five more Smilies to this thread b/c this one belongs to the Reds!

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

ah-yup!

Reds win! Reds win! :banger :tu :) :tu :banger

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Anybody think Houston would be interested in getting rid of Keppinger? I could see him coming back to be a utility player for us. Get rid of Renteria and he could take some games over Janish and even give BP a day or two off.

Kepp has some good numbers the past two years for Houston.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

I would like to see him come back. He hit when he was with us. I don't know how he has been recently.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Tonight is the night we will be in the Diamond Seats right behind home plate. Look for us :tu

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Nice look at the same strikes Stubbs watched last night?:sh

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

We had a great time last night. I have never seen an inside the park home run before in person. Stubbs is awesome. The fireworks were great as well. We were literally dead center of home plate.

Here are some pics:

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Awesome pics Dan! Who were the thick girls at home plate?

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

They sang the Canadian National Anthem and our National Anthem. The dude standing on the pitchers mound is an eagle handler. During the National Anthem, they released a bald eagle from center field and he flew to the handler. :usa

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Drew Stubbs 0 for his last 8 :banger 4 K's :tu An inside-the-park 'homerun' on a dropped fly ball. :r He'll be at 100 K's by the end of the week. MVP! MVP!

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Reds win! Brewers look to be about to lose. We're about to be only two games back.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
 

Did the attendance pick up later in the game, Dan? From those pics it looks like High Attendance Day for the Marlins.
