Washington Nationals at Cincinnati Reds, Jul 5, 2008 7:10 PM EDT
|
|
|
Let's focus on the good here. Josh Fogg made five "rehab" starts in the minors and threw 36 innings with a 2.75 ERA, striking out 26 and only walking 6. Offensively, the Nationals have played like a minor league team this season. Ergo...
The Pirates play the Brewers tonight, so a win by the Reds could mean a move up into 4th place. Then again, a loss could land them back in the cellar if the Astros win. I guess what I'm saying is, this could be about as exciting as it gets for us this year. Reds fever - catch it!

Hairston vanished from Gameday as if abducted by aliens. Then Bruce got “in play, no outs.” But it looks like there was an out. Unless he was abducted by the same aliens who took Hairston. (Who was magically returned to 2B after Bruce hit.)

Hey Brendan,
I found myself in the Brickskeller for a couple of hours yesterday. A real kick-ass and overwhelming beer list, but a surprisingly crappy and limited juke box.
by ken on Jul 5, 2008 8:28 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
Yeah, it's the worst jukebox in DC, which is saying something
It has the Guinness record for most beers available, except that you have to have at least three beers in mind because they’ll be out of the first two you order. I kind of like RFD in Chinatown (which is owned by the same people) better.
Did you see the DC fireworks?
by Brendanukkah on Jul 5, 2008 8:32 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
Yeah, they were batting about .333
Though it’s not like I was disappointed because I was basically throwing darts at various Eastern Bloc ales.
Didn’t see the fireworks. I came back to Philly in the afternoon and enjoyed a long beer snooze on the train. I went down to meet up with my brother, who was in DC for the weekend visiting his fiancee.

I watched the fireworks from in front of the Iwo Jima Memorial. There was a Belgian family in front of me, and the father was talking to a man from St. Louis, who was trying to convince him of the greatness of Budweiser. It made me just sort of shake my head.

That’s a tough error on Encarnacion. Maybe Hairston could have fielded it, but I don’t think he would have gotten the runner – would have been too hard of a throw going to his right.
That’s as much Votto’s fault as Edwin’s.

Been listening to George and the Crappy old leftover talk to Murker
Murker sounds like a pretty normal guy. Meanwhile Ede, Votto and the gang throw the ball all over the place.

1-Fastball-88
2-Changeup-86
3-Fastball-88
4-Fastball-86
5-Fastball-88
6-Slider-86
7-Fastball-88
Nice changeup he’s got there.

Gameday said “in play runs” but it’s been lying to me all night so I wanted confirmation.

No bunt for Phillips there!
Single to left field, and Cherry was chugging from second. The throw got to the plate in time, but bounced over Flores’s head.

Defending the NL Central
The three best records in the NL are all in the Central (Cubs, Cardinals, Brewers). And every single team in the NL West is under .500.

Jay Bruce had the #1 Web Gem
And Cherry’s day was good, but his brother went 3-4 with two home runs. Show off.

+1
He looked a little goofy.
I thought Griffey’s was better. He had to go a long distance and extend over the shoulders and it saved a run.

That's only because he's old and slow
BUT – Grif made the play…

"Was it for the Reds organization or all of baseball?" Bruce said.
