Game 83 Thread: Reds at Cleveland
Cincinnati Reds at Cleveland Indians, Jun 29, 2008 1:05 PM EDT
It'd be nice to get a series win and have a winning road trip against the AL. A win today would take care of both of those.

All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
I don't get it.
Two guys go 2 for 4 and sit on the bench the next day, while another guy hits a home run and walks twice, and gets bumped down four places in the batting order.

Hey guys
I’ve got an hour to kill until the Brewers game.
Since I can’t be here for the whole game, here’s a midget with Paris Hilton:

He's extremely quick and good.
God love the summer...
woke up at 645 and didn’t put pants on until…well…not yet.
Hope the roomates don’t mind…hows yall doing?

Me, obc, sukr, ‘than, ash, slyde, and snohio. Good times had by all I think

You guys hang out together?
I’ve only met two people from BCB, and that was only once.
He's extremely quick and good.
Yup
Hell, we hung out with ash’s mom for a little while last night.
We go to the occasional game, or like last night, just meet up somewhere and watch the game over some cold ones.

Small market.

I don’t like that he was out. Kudos for trying, thoguh.

he shouldve pulled out a shiv from his shoe and stabbed shoppach
thats how charlie hustle did it in the good ole days. Of course, he would have to pass it off to Hopper so there would be no evidence

I don't think Arroyo
trusts Valentin at 1b as a receiver…4ks in 5 outs is nice.

49 pitches through 3 for Arroyo
Looks like we’re going to be going to the bullpen soon. It’s a good thing we didn’t waste our best relievers last night…

Though there’s something to be said for the scruffy look.
Kepp’s Abe Lincoln look was too much, though. He looked like he was hiding in the woods from the Burgermeister Meisterburger.

a couple years ago I was here
And had to flee the Island Police on foot after setting off many fireworks. You’re right, there’ll be something.
So which of their players is Arroyo gon' hit in retaliation?
I say Grady
by Nick Papageorgio on Jun 29, 2008 2:01 PM EDT reply actions
do the Reds even do retaliation?
I can’t remember ever seeing them do it. But maybe the Dodger Way will change all that.

yes baker likes it
retaliation clog’s the bases for the other team

Ohio Cup MVP?
Even though it’s lame, it’s gotta be Dunn, right? .294/.429/1.000, 4 HR, 7 RBI going into today. Cueto might be the other option, but I think Dunn has had more impact.
I want a hamburger. No, a cheeseburger. I want a hot dog. I want a milkshake. I want potato chips...

I'm watching Notorious on TCM while gamecasting
Cary Grant and Ingrid Bergman are having the longest kiss in cinematic history right now.
Arroyo should be DFA'd
Eat the 30 mill shit sandwich and deal with it. He is toast. Very Miltonesque and people forget that Milton had "good" starts time to time to in 2005.
I want a hamburger. No, a cheeseburger. I want a hot dog. I want a milkshake. I want potato chips...
"Who's Johnny?" she said
And smiled in her special way

I ask you, what other Reds blog would be dropping an El DeBarge reference on a Sunday afternoon?

Arroyo sucks and is overpaid.
But an xFIP of 4.22 isn’t that bad for a 4th/5th starter.
If we have no better options, we might as well play him.

I have a hard to describing it
It’s weird in a cirque de solei/European/Olympic ceremony way—lots of bizarre symbolism and dancers dressed like 18th century fops. Now Enrique Iglesias is rocking it out so it’s a little more “normal.”
You suckered me into turning it over there
And yeah, it’s like they’re trying to out-weird the Olympics ceremonies.

It’s basically the Cheviot/Bridgetown/West Side festival, about a mile from my house. The food’s probably better at the Greek fest, but it’s in Finneytown, 10 minutes away. :)

Is they didn’t use the PA guy from the Reds. It’s not like he wouldn’t have voiced it.

Listening today on the radio - You'd think that Brantly ought to be the manager
Too bad those gus won’t give ANY credit to Dunn, well Brantly gives a little…now listening to TV the Crappy ol’ Leftover continues to whine that neither Dunn nor Griffey are having any kind of a year offensively…because he only looks a BA… now Geoge and Welsh are talking about which teams would want Dunn or Griffey anyway….
Good day for Bronson and another good one for the Reds
Go Reds.

Guess I'll close it down
Affeldt decides to give up a HR and a doulbe, here is Dick Pole to tell him to stop throwing fastballs.
Certainly have to agree that dusty is a horrible manager of pitching.
Reds win the road trip. Maybe in the season’s 2nd half we’ll see a little more consistent team.

Hey
The Reds tied the Mets for best record from an NL team during interleague play at 9-6. The Braves were the only other NL team to manage a winning record during interleague play (8-7). Gotta have some pride in the little things, right?
If Texas holds on to their lead against Philly tonight (currently in the 7th inning, 3-1 TEX), then 11 of the 14 AL teams will have double-digit wins in interleague play. I’d say the AL thoroughly handled the NL this year.

my dad and I took the trip up to Cleveland Today
for the first time ever I was not in my seat for the first pitch, that pissed me off. We were making good time, and were about 20 miles out around noon, but it took us an hour and a half get from that point to our seats, traffic was terrible. But anyway.
We had second row seats in left field next to the Reds Bullpen. First time I have had field level seats at Jacobs Field. I was just feet away from Norris Hopper! We got there just in time to see Dunn nailed at the plate. Not really much else to say, no reason to recap what has already been said. This was the first time I saw the Reds win in Cleveland, in the 4 years i’ve been going.
