Aaron Harang vs Braden Looper

 

Complete Coverge >

 

610x_medium   A_randa_et_medium
Ben Margot/AP (Harang), Joe Randa/Reds (Looper)

W-L ERA WHIP K BB
2008 - Aaron Harang 1-3 2.76 1.00 37 8

W-L ERA WHIP K BB
2008 - Braden Looper 3-1 4.05 1.26 14 8

Over his career, Harang has handled the Cardinals fairly well, sometimes even dominating them.  But he's also had his bumps against them too.  The way he's been pitching so far this year, I feel confident that the Reds can win with him on the mound.

Looper is coming off of a 7 inning, 2 hit performance against Houston, but previously he had been shellacked by the Giants to the tune of 10 hits and 7 runs over 3 innings pitched.  He made 2 starts against the Reds last year and pretty much shut them down, going 7 innings in both and allowing just one run total on 7 hits combined.  That one run was off of a Josh Hamilton HR and he's no longer with the team.  OH NOES!!!!!!   The good thing is that we've always got this game to throw back in his face.  Oh sure he may have millions of dollars and questionable good looks, but April 4, 2005 was our day!  And he can't take that away ever!

NOTE: The game is on FSN Ohio today!  I guess Grande couldn't get enough love in for the Cardinals in just two days.

Apparently, Clemens thought all his dreams came true, too. However, like most women, they were just faking it.

Clemen's pickup lines

It comes as no surprise to many, that Roger Clemens used the books that his girlfriends read as a source for many of his pickup lines.

Most famously, “There’s a Rocket in my pocket.”

He played last night for the first time since missing two games over the weekend with back spasms, and went 2-5, with a solo HR that tied the game at the time.
