BengalszoneBilly Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 Reds win! That was the easiest walk-off ever.Yeah... two pitches. Good clutch hitting by Paul and Hanigan! Now if the Cards can knock off the Pirates, things would be looking really good. They're still tied at 2 in the 8th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just hope the game goes 27 innings.If St. Louis wins the division lead goes back to 7 1/2 games.Yeah, I know. But a 6.5 game lead with only 40 games left to play is still a good cushion.The Reds also play Pittsburgh and St. Louis six more games each this year, so the Reds don't really need any help. They just need to keep taking care of their own business.Cincinnati is 27-10 since the all-star break. If they keep playing even close to that (and with Votto coming back soon, I think they can), they are on pace to win 100+ games this year - meaning I'm not worried about the Cardinals or Pirates catching them.

I'd just be a bit more comfortable with a 10+ game lead. Neither St. Louis nor Pittsburgh are bad teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the Reds have a tough week ahead of them (4 games @ Philly, and 3 games vs St. Louis). If they go 5-2, I'll be ready to start focusing solely on the Nationals.

BengalszoneBilly Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 Hopefully their bullpens take... oh about a month to recover from this. You've seen games happen like this before. Teams exhausts their bullpen, and some bench player who hasn't pitched since high school ends up on the mound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derekshank Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 Hopefully their bullpens take... oh about a month to recover from this. Yeah. The Cardinals have a day off tomorrow. Meanwhile, the Reds are in the middle of playing 17 games in 16 days. So if nothing else, I hope this levels the playing field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

derekshank Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 15 and counting I think they see the Reds win today on the scoreboard, and really feel they cannot fall any further behind.This is pretty hilarious, considering I mentioned a 27 inning game in the 8th inning. Who knew?I'm still pulling for the Pirates in this game. I know that might not make sense in the immediate present, but I just have a feeling that the Cardinals are the more dangerous team. They have scored the 4th most runs in MLB, and have the 8th best ERA. Frankly, I'm not sure how they find themselves 8 games out of the division lead, because they have biggest run differential in MLB... but I'd like to see them miss the playoffs entirely.

I noticed that the Cardinals have pitched 16 2/3 innings and haven't given up a single earned run yet. That's pretty impressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
