Reds vs. Astros


Stripes

3-0 Houston going into the third. :rolleyes:

Arroyo is just plain done.

Dusty will leave him in there until he allows at least 6 or 7 runs. Remember, you can't upset a guy or ruin his confidence. Bronson Arroyo was the #2 guy out of the AS break. He deserves to get a chance to go the distance. (insert sarcasm)

3-3 now. Thankfully the Astros lineup isn't quite the terror that almost any other lineup could be with Arroyo pitching.

True. Reds need to not get back into the habit of leaving RISP. This should be a 3 or 4 run lead.

They really need to go 6-0 or at least 5-1 against the Astros and Cubs and 12-4 or 13-3 in the next 16.

Arroyo got through it. As much as he's sucked this season, he has pitched well today. If the Reds don't find a way to win this game against the worst team in baseball, the head-bashing-into-wall emoticons will rain freely from my mouse clicker.

Agreed. Now they've managed two hits in four innings against the mighty "Jordan Lyles", both by Votto.

The 4th inning was a perfect example of what's been wrong with this team this year. Votto doubles to lead off the inning and Phillips comes up only to hack away for his at bat. Forget it's a 2 run game and all he has to do is advance the runner. No. no. It's better to go up and continually swing for the fences instead of advance the runner. Pathetic mediocre half-ass baseball.

The Reds tied the game up at 2. The first run coming from a HR from some dude named Todd Frazier. (Never heard of him) The second from the combo of Phillips who singled in Votto.

With the Brewers winning tonight the Reds have to keep pace.

Well the Louisville RiverBats have lost 2 out of 3 in Houston! Wait a minute this is the Reds. My Bad it just looks like half of the Batz team. Oh well you lose to a Housto club that's traded all there good players away sucks. No playoffs this year gang. n

To illustrate your point, the Astros have gone 1-10 since that series with the Reds
