Game 5 Thread: Reds vs. Phillies Part II



We're kicking Eaton's ass, but we've only got two runs to show for it. Still, it's 2-1 and Harang is through five with only 68 pitches. We're in good shape.

my laptop is like totally the bomb.com and i feel it too sometimes. i blame alan and all his silly pictures.

Agreed, and recommended

Game threads are impossible for me. I look in once in awhile, but there's just no way I can follow along now that we've switched over. It takes several minutes to load. Which is crazy.

So that's how the Phillies are winning, George?

Playing "Little Ball"?

Cause I see a bunch dudes knocking the shit out of the ball. How 'bout the Reds try that for a while.

yeah its my favorite when these dudes talk about how

rollins and victorina and their runnin' and buntin' ways are the reason the phils are good. its kinda like when people thank God when they win the lottery.

I really would like to have their line-up

im questioning

the pitch selection. How bout we throw Burrell some breaking balls.

by JoseRijoIsGod on Apr 5, 2008 2:35 PM EDT   0 recs

And another thing

I know the park plays small, but why is GameCast showing every ball in the outfield as over the fence? Come on now!

Jeez, another year older and I am full-on embracing my crotchety old man status.

I sort of agreed with Chris and George on that one

I think he pushed the last 2 outside on purpose.

2 hands fools

BP

is the most unorthodox 2B'man ever. I think expecting him to use two hands is a little much.

by JoseRijoIsGod on Apr 5, 2008 2:42 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Who's up for some runs now?

Let's get Aaron back in line for the win. That's FTW for you intertubes kids.

This is the third straight game

that the reds have faced a pitcher who isn't locating and given him a quality starter. I think we should be a little concerned about this.

by Man Mountain on Apr 5, 2008 2:48 PM EDT to parent up   1 recs

our pitching is much improved

but our lineup leaves a lot to be desired

Bako has been a disaster offensively

He left 9 on base the other day and he's left some on since.

by boobs on Apr 5, 2008 2:54 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Right now

There's six (6!) members of our starting lineup batting .200 or lower.

by Brendanukkah on Apr 5, 2008 2:56 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Hey

but we can just sit back and wait for them to hit HR's, right?

by JoseRijoIsGod on Apr 5, 2008 2:57 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

that would be nice

and its still his fault

Way to close strong

Offense, you can still get Harang the win. Do it!

Wait, it's the 7th inning.

Shouldn't Dunnies be on the bench?

Why can't you say, I go about things the wrong way.

That goes out to Dusty.

is better than our 2005-7 version.

by buckeye22fox on Apr 5, 2008 2:54 PM EDT   0 recs

okay

I'm going to need Dunn or Griffey to hit a HR soon, or its going to start to be a storyline.

Man the Reds' offense sucks hard.

i was trying to think of some sort of defense for this

but you're right, it does.
