Joe Nuxhall Memorial Star of the Game
Aaron Harang. It seems like pitchers are often the JNMSotGs, but Harang is immensely deserving of the honor. He pitched a dandy today, going the full nine innings and showing us all that he still indeed has the stuff of his ought-to-have-won-a-Cy-Young campaigns from 2006 and 2007. He recorded 9 strikeouts and no walks.
Key Plays
- With Votto choosing not to hit his customary three-run homer, Phillips ably chipped in by hitting Ian Snell's first inning offering into the Souvenir Section. This slightly overshadowed Willy Taveras's leadoff double, and any extra base hit from Willy should be duly acknowledged.
- Nyjer Morgan continued to bedevil the Reds, hitting a leadoff double of his own, and getting hit by a pitch in the third inning. He was promptly erased though when Harang picked him off. He also got a single in the 9th to go 2-3. He's hitting .714 against the Reds this year.
- Harang struck out the side in the 6th.
- Havoc watch: The Reds hit into a triple play in the 8th inning. With Phillips on second (after a walk!) and Bruce on first (after not striking out!), Encarnacion hit a broken-bat bloop to the shortstop, and the 6-4-3 triple play was on. Encarnacion was also involved in a triple play on April 21, 2007.
Other Notes
- Harang's season ERA is 0.64. After using 114 pitches in 5 innings on Opening Day, he needed only 108 to pitch his gem today.
- Josh Johnson pipped Harang to the first complete game in MLB by a matter of minutes, but Harang recorded the first shutout of the season.
- Willy Taveras tacked up his first pair of batting gloves. He has been pretty decent in the leadoff role, going 2-3 today.
- Jay Bruce had 3 strikeouts. Is anyone else getting a little nervous?
- Ramon Hernandez and Alex Gonzalez combined to go 0-6, with a GIDP. Sea Bass is still waiting for his first hit of the year. But he played all nine innings!

dont worry about Bruce
He’s had a hit in 4 out of 5 games.
Grady Sizemore is hititng .200 also. He will be fine.
Bruce struck out three times today.
IIRC his hit today was some kind of excuse me infield single.
I’m not saying we won’t be pimping him when the AllStar ballots come out in three weeks but right now he’s looking for the bottom.

This is where the hitting instructor can earn his paycheck.
Is he any good?
I ask, because Andy Phillips struggled after being called up last year. The Pirates hitting coach looked at the tape, and told him he was holding his hands too high. Andy’s been raking since. Which leads to me to wonder…why didn’t the Reds hitting coach notice?

Dusty said Harang
looked so good- hes going to experiment with him in a relief in between starts.
Also right now- one of the As new young guns-Trevor Cahill(21 yrs old) is throwing a no-hitter thru 6 innings.
Even if he maintains the no-hitter...
he’s not likely to make it 9 innings, unfortunately.

There goes the no-hitter...

Heck yeah I’m more than a little nervous, especially after how he produced in the 2nd half of 2008. The base running gaffe last night gas me concerned that his head really isnt in the game all the time.

I think Colin's point...
is that those people who died are still…people who died. And moreso than with usual terrorism or wars, there’s a clear path from the societal breakdowns that Western nations have at best looked on at, and at worse played a role in fostering.
Somalia is a mess, and hence we get this. Colin’s point is that if you think about it in these terms—of all the hopelessness in Somalia that leads people to pull crap like this—then it’s hard to cheer on the deaths of these people. I realize that not everyone agrees with this argument, but at the very least it would be nice for people to consider just a bit more of the context that leads to these horrible stories.

I understand the context...and stand behind my comment
my ship was patrolling off the coast of Somalia in 1992.. right after the famous “Black Hawk Down” incident. for some of you that don’t remember, the US was in country to protect the UN mission to distribute food to the starving people in Somalia. There were low life thugs who decided that they could make money by stealing the food shipments, kidnapping aidworkers etc..
As we were trying to protect the food convoys..etc one of our helicopters was shot down by an RPG and the crew was dragged and desecrated all over the streets of Mogadishu.
These pirates are the same type of low life scum that would steal food from starving people for profit. They dehumanized themselves.

Nothing happens in a vacuum
it is not like piracy is anyone’s first career choice. They are desperate people with no other options. No one condones their actions. But it is only through distancing ourselves from and dehumanizing our fellow man that we can laugh at killing. I’m not saying that what happened was wrong or unnecessary; I’m simply saying that nothing is funny about people being killed.
I encourage everyone who rec’d this asinine comment to consider your motives.

agreed
Somalia has been a failed state for years. They don’t have a functional navy or coast guard. Other countries took advantage of that by fishing illegally in Somali waters and dumping toxic waste there. That left the local fisherman with no source of income. They discovered piracy almost by accident, when they tried to patrol the waters themselves. Usually only the pirates are killed in these encounters; they’re after money, not blood. They generally treat their hostages well, seeing them as pawns caught up in the greater game, not as enemies.

here's Thomas Jefferson's take on the whole thing....
After the United States won its independence in the treaty of 1783, it had to protect its own commerce against dangers such as the Barbary pirates. As early as 1784 Congress followed the tradition of the European shipping powers and appropriated $80,000 as tribute to the Barbary states, directing its ministers in Europe, Thomas Jefferson and John Adams, to begin negotiations with them. Trouble began the next year, in July 1785, when Algerians captured two American ships and the dey of Algiers held their crews of twenty-one people for a ransom of nearly $60,000.
Thomas Jefferson, United States minister to France, opposed the payment of tribute, as he later testified in words that have a particular resonance today. In his autobiography Jefferson wrote that in 1785 and 1786 he unsuccessfully “endeavored to form an association of the powers subject to habitual depredation from them. I accordingly prepared, and proposed to their ministers at Paris, for consultation with their governments, articles of a special confederation.” Jefferson argued that “The object of the convention shall be to compel the piratical States to perpetual peace.” Jefferson prepared a detailed plan for the interested states. “Portugal, Naples, the two Sicilies, Venice, Malta, Denmark and Sweden were favorably disposed to such an association,” Jefferson remembered, but there were “apprehensions” that England and France would follow their own paths, “and so it fell through.”
Paying the ransom would only lead to further demands, Jefferson argued in letters to future presidents John Adams, then America’s minister to Great Britain, and James Monroe, then a member of Congress. As Jefferson wrote to Adams in a July 11, 1786, letter, “I acknolege [sic] I very early thought it would be best to effect a peace thro’ the medium of war.” Paying tribute will merely invite more demands, and even if a coalition proves workable, the only solution is a strong navy that can reach the pirates, Jefferson argued in an August 18, 1786, letter to James Monroe: "The states must see the rod; perhaps it must be felt by some one of them. . .

I'm not all that worried about Bruce.
His timing seems a little off so far, but he’s far too talented to keep this up forever. He came up with all the hype in the world and destroyed the minors, but he just turned 22 a week and a half ago, and a lot of the people who were ranking him as the best prospect in baseball also said that some growing pains were pretty likely. By all accounts his work ethic is outstanding and he’ll get it together, but we’re gonna have to deal with some strikeouts and less than awe-inspiring results before that happens. He had all of about 450 plate appearances above A-ball before coming to the majors and he had an .869 OPS against righties last year in the majors. A lot of young lefty hitters struggle against left-handed pitching when they first hit the majors, and I think five games is a little early to be too worried about him this season. The kid’s gonna rake, but after what he gave us in his first week up last year, he may have hurt himself by setting the expectations so high. Come 2011, we’ll all just be glad we have a slugger like him in our lineup.
I'll admit that I've been worried...
But I forget that the guy is only 22. You raise some really good points… Plus, Votto’s early success this year could take some of the pressure off of him…
