Reds Tidbits (2011 Season)

[Jaxbuck]

Is it safe to say Hanrahan is our favorite non-Reds player?

I know he's mine. I look at Pirates box scores just to see if he pitched.

From Cards beat writer Joe Strauss on attendance last night (yes, it was cold, against the Pirates, on a school night, opposite the NCAA final, but still ...)

Cards announced Att: 32,007 smallest in Busch III history. Turnstile count barely topped 21k. Maybe 5,000 in park at end of 4-3 game.

So it looks like the game isnt on in central Ohio tonight because they feel we should watch the Jackets :(.

Are you on cable?

When I lived in Columbus they'd put Reds games on public access if they conflicted with the BJs.

Looks like the game isn't in HD for the people that do get to watch it. Is FSN Ohio trying to piss everyone off tonight?

Yes I am, and I haven't seen them do that for a few years.

Looks like it. I love the Jackets, but why show them when they're eliminated and the Reds are unbeaten(and good)?

According to DirecTV it's on in Central Ohio....

Ugh. Ho HD for me either. Worse yet, the program guide says I'm supposed to be watching the Cavs. I don't know why that is. Last time I checked, I'm the only person in this town who ever gave a damn about the Cavs, and I certainly don't want them pre-empting the Reds.

This happened a few days ago too, and apparently it was a Time Warner problem rather than an FSN problem.

Leake retires the first three rather easily. The Reds' defense certainly has not missed a step since last season. Perhaps the best in MLB.

I love that Phillips's intro music is "Fuck you" be Cee Lo Green. Too bad it's edited.

I don't think Reds fans are in a position to criticize the Cards fans for not showing up to the park just yet. This is a tiny crowd. It's a chilly Tuesday night against a lousy team, so it's nothing to be alarmed about.

Rolen RBI. 1-0.

I sent a few choice tweets to the the account Dryden posted in this thread the last time TW screwed up the HD. Now Twitter has shit the bed.

Gomes walks. They need to do a blood test on him or something.
