Stripes Posted August 28, 2010 Report Share Posted August 28, 2010 Bruce looks capable of four tonight, but the Reds will need a big 8th inning for him to even get the opportunity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmyBengal Posted August 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2010 Awesome game tonight against a Cubs team that had a few wins going. Bruce ?? Yeah, keep that kind of hitting up and we're set.Cueto with 8 solid innings, keeping the middle relief off the field. Thank you...Lecure moved to a closers role and has a very good 9th to end the game.Travis Wood is going to get the start in place of Volquez on Sunday.I saw Harang sitting in the dugout tonight. Hope that's as close as he gets to the field.The Cards losing to sh*tty teams had to come to end sooner or later, beating the Nats tonight 4-2.

jjakq27 Posted August 28, 2010 Report Share Posted August 28, 2010 8-5 Washington. It's hard to worry too much about the Reds when the Cardinals are so often blowing it.Yet some doofus labels the Reds as frauds.You what's next right? Not that we won but that the Cards lost?from the St Louis Post Dispatch:The Cardinals have not won a series against a team with a .500 or losing record this month. They've lost or split series with the Chicago Cubs, the Milwaukee Brewers, the Pirates, the Houston Astros, and the currently .500 Florida Marlins. Those five teams are a combined 87 1/2 games out of first place. Not since sweeping the Pirates at the end of July at Busch Stadium have the Cardinals won a series against a team beneath them in the standings. And that's only half of it.http://www.stltoday....127992bc8b.htmlWhen it's over, no one will remember who they beat, just that they made the playoffs.Check the updated numbers from the entry: The Reds are 41-21 against teams with losing records in today's standings, and that includes a 1-5 record against AL dregs Kansas City and Seattle. Cincinnati uses losing teams to improve their standing. After last night's loss, the Cardinals are 33-30 against losing teams. If the Cardinals' miss the playoffs, this road trip will be the whiff that people peg as the reason. But really, this road trip is just the continuation of a trend that has sabotaged the Cardinals all along./>http://www.stltoday.com/sports/baseball/professional/article_96eb987e-b1fb-11df-8699-0017a4a78c22.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArmyBengal Posted August 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2010 Early game for the Reds today.Top of the 1st Wood gives up 2 infield hits (good plays by Janish actually), loads the bases, and then gets out of the inning.The Reds follow with a Stubbs double, a bunt to move him over, and then Votto grounds out getting the RBI.Reds 1-0, top of the 2nd.

ArmyBengal Posted August 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2010 Agree with Valaika playing nicely and Votto reaches on a fielders choice.Probably won't come up to bat again.Yeah, I'm watching his triple crown numbers... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmyBengal Posted August 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2010 Fukedome hits a HR for the Cubs and it's tied 5-5 top of the 8th.I don't know why the Reds brought in Rhodes to pitch when LeCure was doing so well.You would expect Rhodes to not do that, but still.

Stripes Posted August 29, 2010 Report Share Posted August 29, 2010 Rhodes hasn't been all that great since the All-Star Break. Took him five pitches to blow the lead. 5-5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
