Game 152: Reds vs Cardinals

St. Louis Cardinals @ Cincinnati Reds


Next Game

St. Louis Cardinals
@ Cincinnati Reds

Thursday, Sep 18, 2008, 7:10 PM EDT
Great American Ball Park

Kyle Lohse vs Edinson Volquez

Clear. Winds blowing in from left field at 10-15 m.p.h. Game Time temperature: Around 75.

 

Complete Coverage >

W-L ERA WHIP K BB
2008 - Kyle Lohse 13-6 3.80 1.30 111 46

W-L ERA WHIP K BB
2008 - Edinson Volquez 16-5 3.22 1.35 192 86

Did you know that Kyle Lohse used to pitch for the Reds and his performance for the Reds wasn't quite as good as it has been this season?  Blah blah blah.  Lohse is not a bad pitcher, despite what many in Cincinnati seem to think.  He's not great, and he's probably performing at his peak this season, but he's still basically a league average pitcher and that's nothing to shake a stick at, if you are in to shaking sticks at things.  It looks like the Cardinals got steal with him when he signed the one year deal.

Edinson Volquez is still trying to become the Reds first 17-game winner since Pete Schourek won 18 games in 1995.  He'll also be the youngest 17-game winner for the Reds since Don Gullett won 17 games in 1974 at the age of 23.  He remains 8 strikeouts away from becoming just the 8th different Reds pitcher to strike out 200 in a season and the youngest since Gary Nolan struck out 206 as a 19-year old rookie in 1967.

We've got milestones to go before we sleep!

Obligatory Brandon/Brendan soccer post of the night

The second most successful sports team in Ohio this year (right behind the Xavier Musketeers), the Columbus Crew are playing a nationally televised game on ESPN2. They’re down 1-0 right now, but they’re without their best player. They’re at Crew Stadium, so expect a wild one to play out.

Angel is a beast. Ekpo is in now, which is awesome. He scored the Goal of the Week when I saw them play in Columbus. (How was that not a PK for Gaven right there? Ugh.)

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

by BK on Sep 18, 2008 7:38 PM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Yeah, sure looked like a PK to me

And Angel didn’t take the kick, he did a dummy run over the ball, which was clever. Not sure who did take it, but it was still a great kick.

Goal of the Week

I see a lot of GotWs, but mostly because whenever a United player is nominated, the fans always crash the balloting and give him the honor. Sort of like how the Brewers loaded up the All-Star team.

On corner kicks from that one side, for half of the game, there’s streamers and smoke in the opposing player’s face.

But only after agreeing to love her for the end of time. Then he scored and realized it wasn’t worth it, since his lady love most likely grew up to be Peggy Hill. So now he’s prayin’ for the end of time to hurry up and arrive.

It was a metaphor

But there was a baseball game going on.

See, they were parking by the lake with not another car in sight. And making out in the car, while listening to a baseball game.

I know, this sounds strange by modern standards. But the song was written back in the early ’70s, when most cars only had radios. Nobody had CD players or iPods. Some really cool guys had 8-tracks, and could romance their sweeties with The Best of Air Supply, but Meat Loaf and his date were stuck with whatever was on the radio. Which was a baseball game.

Had an AM radio with an 8-track player. It was all original so I didn’t want to change it, but man did that suck.

My dad

had an extensive collection of 8-track tapes. He finally was forced to buy a new stereo system recently, and was bummed to find out that 8-track players are now unavailable

He made a lot of his 8-tracks himself. There was this loud clunk right in the middle of the song when it changed tracks. Commercial tapes just faded the song out and back in again around the clunk. Dad timed all the songs and arranged them on the tape so the clunk was between songs. He spent hours at this, according to my mom.

LOL

He had a cassette deck. And even a CD player. He jogs 5 miles a day, and so had a Walkman, then a portable CD player, and now several MP3 players.

But he was very fond of his 8-tracks, even in the age of the iPod. Probably because he spent so much time making them.

Wow, well done.

“Alternative Baby” is still one of my favorite songs of theirs, and local radio hosts use “241” and “Skatanic” as bump music, which I think is kind of ironical. Listen to the live version of “S.R.” sometime, you won’t regret it.

That one came out in February/March of senior year

and was then continually alternated with Goddammit! and and the self titled compilation of LPs that was also released around that time. Those are three of the best things to come out of the late 90s.

Infirmary was the beginning of the end in my opinion. The Skiba/Kevin Seconds split was a brief return to the glory days (bought that one off the Asian Man, Mike Park himself, at warp tour in NYC one summer) but since then it has all been a bit overproduced and lyrically challenged.
