Reds tidbits (2010 season)

[scott91575]

We didn't figure it at the time, but Phillips saved two runs.

Not sure it's going to matter the way things are going. Any time you give up a HR to Theriot (his 2nd of the year) it's not a good sign.

Time to go get him Dusty. Let Leake take the rest of this blowout.

Another solo HR - this time Gibbons. Bounced right off the top of the wall and over in CF.

 

[Dryden]

And now Kemp ...

 

[jlb1705]

...And yet another. 5-0.

Guess it really doesn't matter who's playing defense in LF if the ball keeps going over his head.

Shit

 

[Dryden]

I'm thinking I might try to recapture the magic from Arizona. Go to bed early so the Reds can stage a big comeback rally in the 8th and 9th at 1:00 am while I'm asleep.

The big rallys never happen when I watch.

RBI groundout for Votto... don't need to get 'em all back at once.

 

[scott91575]

Gomes needs to start bringing a white flag to the plate instead of a bat.

 

[Dryden]

Jesus, Keels. Paul just mentioned the dropped line drive by Rusty Ryal and how that "opened the floodgates" allowing the Reds to score 4 in the 8th and 4 in the 9th to comeback and win.

Paul, you ignorant slut. The comeback was on Wednesday night, while the Rusty Ryal gaffe was on Thursday in the midst of a game the Reds already held a 4-1 lead. Not only were these two different games that occured just three and two days ago, but YOU WERE FUCKING THERE WATCHING IT!

 

[Dryden]

Nice. That was a pretty clever little dig from Welsh. "I'm not sure what kind of quarterback Chad Billingsley was back in high school in Defiance, Ohio, but I'm guessing he was a drop-back passer, because that's the slowest I've ever seen a person run to first with two healthy legs."

 

[jlb1705]

Billingsley should be embarrassed by that jaunt to 1st. Corky Miller, Prince Fielder and Pablo Sandoval are all faster than that. I guess Manny's presence in the lineup affects the Dodgers' baserunning kinda like Rolen's presence influences the Reds.

Marty just called him "Speedy".

From the game thread on RZ:

Cabrera could've made that play(as the relay man from CF).
