Reds vs. Diamondbacks

[ArmyBengal]

The Reds have the day off today and then start up a 3 game series with the D-Backs with Arroyo on the mound tomorrow.

It's the start of a 9 game road trip that will include the Dodgers and Giants after the D-Backs.

The Cards also have the day off before a 2 game series with the Brewers before getting the Giants and Pirates.

Just take it one series at a time and keep focused.

Oh yeah, that was a nice job by Bailey in his first start since coming off the DL, pitching in place of Cueto.

Nice problem we have with the rotation huh ??

Now if Cardiac Cordero can keep things together we'd be set...

We need to win these games in Az. And we should.

Hot Damn! They're showing the Reds @ Diamondbacks game on local TV tonight! I wasn't expecting that.

[ArmyBengal]

I really hope the Reds continue playing good ball. They have some tough games coming up and it would be nice to kick this road trip off right.

[Stripes]

Arroyo handed Arizona a two-run handicap before recording an out. Oh well, let's go.

[Stripes]

And five of the Reds first seven batters have struck out swinging. Looking pretty ugly early.

I assure you the Arizona pitchers didn't do anything close to this when I was at the game last Sunday!

[BengalszoneBilly]

Aw s**t. The Reds just got a run taken off the board! :frustrated:

[semiotter]

Well St Bleuis lost. So a comeback would be sweet

[BengalszoneBilly]

[semiotter]

Well they tied it. 2-2. Enjoy the game Billy.

Oh I definitely am semi. Getting to see this game live on local TV is great!

[BengalszoneBilly]

YEAH!!! Reds up 3-2!!!

[semiotter]

Paul Janish continues to impress

[BengalszoneBilly]

Oh yeah... Bases loaded... top of the 8th... lets get some runs here!!!

[BengalszoneBilly]

That's what I'm talking about!!! Old man Rhodes comes in and ends the inning. We may have a new closer her my friends!

[BengalszoneBilly]

Wild pitch, and the Red go up 4-2!

[BengalszoneBilly]

I'm loving watching this game live. A base hit sends the Reds up 6-2!

[semiotter]

And Jay Bruce sucks. OMG! And they keep putting him out there?

[BengalszoneBilly]

REDS WIN!!! Two game lead in the division. A tip of the hat to Arroyo, for he settled down, and lasted late into the game.

[semiotter]

Sweet "W". Hope ur local TV shows the rest of the series for u Billy

I just checked semi, and it seems I'll get to see all the games for free while the Reds are in Arizona!

I'm one happy camper.

[ArmyBengal]

Very nice game by the Reds again keeping their heads and coming back from a 2 run hole. You have to love seeing that with these guys !!!

Bruce 1-5 ?? Wow that dude has really underwhelmed to this point. So streaky...

The Cards losing to the Brewers ?? Yeah, that's pretty awesome as well.

Volquez takes the mound tonight, so lets hope he keeps gaining control and can pitch another 6-7 solid innings.

GO REDS !!!

I couldn't stay up late enough to follow the game, but I'm glad to see the two game lead this morning. As for Bruce, I'm fine with the Reds continuously putting him out there. He's had a less-than-stellar season, but he's too talented to rot in the minors for any lengthy period. If he figures it out (more likely next year than this year), he'll be yet another threat in the lineup.
