Are you questioning the wisdom of Teh Book of Dusty?

Avoiding base clogging is from the Book of Dusty.

This better not be a fucking bunt.

Chris Welsh is now dreaming up sacrifice bunt scenarios.

Wait, I thought we were trading Dustyisms. I don't recognize that one.

Spaulding guide book types live to give away outs, absolutely live for the shit.

Stubbs fails to swing at ball four.

Glad that they wasted that out one batter before now. Excepting a double play, there'd be a runner at second anyway.

why the fuck was the guy on second not tagging up?

Lets all just hope no one goes nuts and kills the rally.

Great play by the leftfielder. Yet another reason not to make intentional outs. The Reds are plenty good at making outs on their own, and sometimes shit gets taken away from you too.

 

[Jaxbuck]

why the fuck was the guy on second not tagging up?

No idea but my guess would be because he's a dumb fuck and coached by a dumber fuck which results in a lot of dumb fucking shit happening.

Good call. It's moot now, but he could've been flatfooted on the bag and still scored if that ball actually dropped.

 

[scott91575]

Thanks for the chart Jax. I hadn't seen that one.

 

[jlb1705]

Just think of how lousy that inning would've been if it weren't for that awesome sac bunt.

 

[BuckeyeNation27]

not sure how many of you get to listen to the marlin announcers, but they are currently discussing bringing in anibel (sp?) sanchez to pitch.

Something I didn't notice until now...what is the deal with teams off on a Tuesday in the middle of a series? I haven't checked the schedule, but is that an early season thing only? Is it due to the Tuesday after a teams Monday home opening day has bad attendance?

 

[scott91575]

Well, the Reds took the two I was hoping for. To tomorrow...Volstad is not bad, but the Reds did hit him last year. I don't have much hope of the Reds and Harang beating Johnson on Thursday (although Johnson has struggled so far this year). If the Reds can take 3 of 4 I will be happy.
