Game 141: Reds vs Cubs

Chicago Cubs at Cincinnati Reds, Sep 5, 2008 7:10 PM EDT



Next Game

Chicago Cubs
@ Cincinnati Reds

Friday, Sep 5, 2008, 7:10 PM EDT
Great American Ball Park

Ted Lilly vs Bronson Arroyo

Partly cloudy with a 30-percent chance of rain. Winds blowing out to left field at 5-10 m.p.h. Game Time temperature: Around 75.

 

Complete Coverage >



W-L ERA WHIP K BB
2008 - Ted Lilly 13-8 4.23 1.30 160 57



W-L ERA WHIP K BB
2008 - Bronson Arroyo 13-10 4.97 1.46 137 57


Don't look now, but Arroyo's ERA is under 5.00 for the first time since his first start of the season.  And now that Corey Patterson's batting over .200 for the season, you'll see that look of regret on the face of Cubs fans when they realize what got away.  Things are really starting to look up for the Reds.  Heck, I bet they even have a big crowd down at the ol' ballpark tonight.

The Cubs are currently mired in a 5-game losing streak, their longest of the season.  For some perspective, the Reds have had 5 losing streaks this season of 5 games or more.  But that doesn't matter now.  The Reds are in the spoiler part of their season.  So, hold on to your hats because these games, you know, mean something to like one of the teams involved.

Louisville and Dayton playoffs

That’s what we’re looking forward to. Oh, and Votto needs three homeruns to tie the Reds’ rookie record for roundtrippers (three times fast). Plus Jo-eh kills the Cubs. His three homer day was a true bright spot for the season.

More storylines: Will we see the continuation of Goodroyo? He’s pitching prior to the weekend, so that’s good. Will we continue to see Competent Corey Patterson? Dunn and Griffey were holding him back from being a .240 hitter. Youngsters! Will Hanigan and Castillo get to start? And asking yourself if you’d be more excited to see Bruce hit a home run or take a walk.

Lots to look forward to!

More Votteaux stats

8 of his career 21 homers (38) have come against the Cubs, and 18 of his 84 RBI (21.4). Here’s his career line against the Cubs: .308 /.338 /.738.

correction on Votto

the rookie record for HR for the Reds was set by Frank Robinson at 38 (also was the MLB record until 1987). If Votto reaches 20 it will be the most since 1970 (Bernie Carbo). Dunn and Hamilton both hit 19 in their rookie seasons, though in fewer ABs than Votto currently has.

its like Jewish church

the Sabbath begins at sundown on Friday and ends at sundown on Saturday, which is why Saturday is traditionally the Sabbath day for Jews. weekly services are held on Friday night to celebrate the beginning of the Sabbath.

at least, thats how i understand it. im pretty new to this Jewish thing.

my boss has a 5 year old who just started kindergarten. he came to work with him today because he had to be dropped off at school. he’s a pretty clever kid, and he’s at that age where he’ll talk your ear off because he thinks he’s important.

so we were talking and out of the blue he tells me, “you know the devil isnt real?” and i said “oh yeah, what makes you say that?” and i swear the kid is a genius, cuz here was his reasoning. he says “well, my mom says that cartoons arent for real, and the devil is on the cartoons. so that means the devil isnt for real.”
