Harang's racking up the Ks

No beer and no tv...

Are you sure you're OK? Have you had an MRI?

EdE your due

Seriously don’t give Dusty a reason to say Corey wasn’t the only Red to go hitless.

Beware the toothpick knows.

for the record...

EdE’s having just as crappy a day as CPatt. Worth mentioning.

...because there's already someone posing as Jacob Brumfield

What do you mean, "blank slate"?

Not anymore.

C-Pat stands alone.

scraptastic!

When it comes to Phil Mickelson...Marty's not a fan.

by chandrathan on May 25, 2008 9:06 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

No. He's not white.

Nor is he Norris Hopper, so these terms do not apply to him.

Hmm.

Perhaps. But for the average Banana-phone person, probably not.

yes. white people have officially designated the japanese as an

“unthreatening” race.

except if they’re in the auto industry.

Nan King

has her rape whistle handy, just in case.

by Brendanukkah on May 25, 2008 9:10 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Agreed.

Edwin, coming off the flu, has more hits than Corey Patterson.

Ross bomb Time

Beware the toothpick knows.

by Pilsner73 on May 25, 2008 9:07 PM EDT   0 recs

just to recap

Adam dunn is no longer in the ball game. Corey Patterson is 0 for 8 AND STILL IN THE GAME!

by Brian B on May 25, 2008 9:07 PM EDT   0 recs

The defense would like to point out

Bob Boone – If you let Bob Boone manager your team for a couple years it does not make sense to fire Dusty before the halfway point.

Beware the toothpick knows.

by Pilsner73 on May 25, 2008 9:10 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Let's not forget

We Ran Jack McKeon out of town for Bob if I recall.

Beware the toothpick knows.

Damnit

I forgot about that one. “Slightly over .500 ball simply won’t cut it Jack. Go win a Wrold Series with the Marlins.”

Jeff, we hardly knew ye...

by chesirecat on May 25, 2008 9:14 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Let's see

Sweet Lou gone, Davey Johnson gone for Ray Knight, and then Jack boy gone for Boone.

Beware the toothpick knows.

by Pilsner73 on May 25, 2008 9:16 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

To be fair

It was Barry Larkin who ran him out of town.

Ross with 1 RBI all season

Eh, shortstop likes him, so why not?

C’mon David Lee Ross! Skiddily biddily bop!

Take a looksee

at the boxscore if you haven’t in the past couple of innings.

I think you just made the FBI watch list

Yeah, well you’re number 1 on my “fuck you” list, brutha.

by Brian B on May 29, 2008 11:16 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

You can't waste the last catcher!

By, y’know, playing them at first base when you have two other first basemen on your roster.

12 year old basketball prodigy

banned from playing with the boys. Next stop NBA?

Was Ross close?

Gamecast made it look like a catch at the wall

Jeff, we hardly knew ye...

by chesirecat on May 25, 2008 9:10 PM EDT   0 recs

Not terribly close.

"My wife ain't never ran and got me no pheasant." - Fistbands

by BK on May 25, 2008 9:11 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

not real close

but warning track and would’ve hit the base of the wall

I'm not a Reds fan....

But I’m in awe of Harang right now.

by rosenthal on May 25, 2008 9:11 PM EDT   0 recs

Perversely

If the Reds pull this out, this might be the thing that gets Harang is long overdue national attention.

by Brendanukkah on May 25, 2008 9:15 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

But this game is outside

of New York and Boston. That would be impossible.

by buckeye22fox on May 25, 2008 9:16 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

yes

looks like about 5 guys

Hope Springs Eternal! Go Reds

Reds fan for 40 years!

by gejoe on May 25, 2008 9:16 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

ok

Jim Ray
Dick Radatz – twice
Norm Charlton
Tom Gordon
Len Barker
Jim Kaat
Harvey Haddix

Jim Ray had the most with 11

Norm was the last on 9-14-1989

These are only games that went into, and the pitcher pitched in, extra innings

7 strait Ks

at least Patterson didn't drop it

he’s thinking about his chance at immortality in a minute.

Where have you gone, Johnny Vander Meer?

by jgoodfri on May 25, 2008 9:13 PM EDT   0 recs

9 Ks in relief for Harang.

This is amazing.

We are so lucky to have him

This is an awe inspiring performance

Pops

You need a do-over on your kid, and name him Harang. Or Alan, think about Erin as a tribute.

or adam

I'm in Awe

Harang is just Aweomse who cares if the Padres are weaker than the Reds at the plate.

Beware the toothpick knows.

by Pilsner73 on May 25, 2008 9:17 PM EDT   0 recs

I wouldn't say they're a lot weaker, at this point.

With Dunn out and Patterson rocking 0-9

Alright, this game is incredible

it’s beyond a debacle now.

It’s close to Kurkjian squeak worthy

Harang and Patterson

Kids, you just don’t get to performances like this everyday.

This is historic people

Corey Patterson is about to vie for the coveted position of most futile performance by a Red in the team’s 140 year history

Jeff, we hardly knew ye...
