The Reds seem to have come out with the mandate to be aggressive. It's not working. They're swinging early, but only Jonny Gomes is getting hits. Meanwhile, the Royals have a 4-1 lead and Mike Lincoln is pitching. Yowzers.

76 pitches through 8
He’s missed Maddux territory. And good news! That’s an increase of up to 9.5 pitches seen per inning!

Reds giving Hoch his first career complete game
Now I know why Bailey wants traded to Houston………
Well shit.
Just checked in to see this score. Thinking I might check right back out and try this again tomorrow.
Phone's ringing, Dude.
this game is boring ...
might go hunting tonight…
More fun than watching Wily T …oh well we’re still in the race..and the game ain’t over YET

Yay
Nothing like a nice, fresh, crisp new thread.

Hello, children
How are we doing?
"It seems as if every mistake I've ever made in life I've had an erection in one hand and a Bud Light in the other."
Doing good
I didn’t eat until late this afternoon and when I did my stomach hurt BAD immediately afterward, not sure why. But I just had breakfast for a late dinner with no troubles, so there’s that.
"It seems as if every mistake I've ever made in life I've had an erection in one hand and a Bud Light in the other."
I've been feeling crappy all day today
every time I eat, I feel lousy.

It felt like someone stabbed me when I first ate
But like I said, it went away and I seem to be normal now. Or at least as normal as I get.

Bailey and Wood were dominant tonight

No, you're fine
Unless your name is anything but Jonny Gomes. And, strangely enough, Mike Lincoln.
by Brendanukkah on Jun 12, 2009 10:25 PM EDT up reply actions
I can't call Bailey dominant.........
He gave up some hard shots and walked 2 batters while only striking out 9.
A dominant start is like 9I 1H 0ER 1W 15K
Wood was very dominant.
by Johnnypronto on Jun 12, 2009 10:22 PM EDT up reply actions
dominant is 9I 3H 1ER 80 pitches

but he walked a batter, only struck out 3, and had a couple of hard hit balls

Maybe I can, if I wanted, but I couldn't
and won’t
and shouldn’t
and the end

Also, did you watch the game?
How do you know how hard the balls were hit?

Nope, I was a the game!
He was around 88-92mph most of the night to he hit 97mph in the 9th and visably held him arm in pain. I wonder if a MRI may be due?

ROFL
"It seems as if every mistake I've ever made in life I've had an erection in one hand and a Bud Light in the other."
It was a joke
He did look gassed. He must have given everything he had on that one pitch.
by Johnnypronto on Jun 13, 2009 12:31 AM EDT up reply actions
I got it, hence the rofl :)
"It seems as if every mistake I've ever made in life I've had an erection in one hand and a Bud Light in the other."
So he was throwing 97mph heat in the 9th
And he’s still not dominant? I’ll have to disagree. I think he was very dominant.

2006, Bailey would hit 97 just about every game
And regularly hit 94-96 with the latter number alot of the time. Plus arm.
Now he is a finesse pitcher that when he REALLY rares back, can get into the 97mph range. He did it only once tonight. He has a average fastball at 88-92 sometimes getting into the 93-94mph ranges.
Not impressed, neither was anybody else I was with. He did have a spitter which showed some potential.
The Reds should just trade him for a utility/Gomes like player just to get something out of him.

OOOOOOOOOOO obc - the AE Door skagettes were just on TV

Blondi or Skanki ?

did you know that there was a hot prospect named Tyler Skaggs?
I wanted the Reds to draft him, but Turtle nixed it.

Tavares is a disgrace
Walt should be ashamed of himself,
2-1 Pittsburgh
"It seems as if every mistake I've ever made in life I've had an erection in one hand and a Bud Light in the other."
I called Pittsburgh 3-2 last night, I gotta stick with that
"It seems as if every mistake I've ever made in life I've had an erection in one hand and a Bud Light in the other."
A little over finve minutes left
The Red wings are bringing the fury.

Penguins are countering with the Fleury

Fuckin' A.. a 4 pitch top of the 9th
I guess the guys just want to get back to the hotel and play Wiii

But this shit is bananas. The crossbar shot will haunt them.

well, that was hideous
Gomes was the only one who hit. Even Hanigan was o-fer.

Yankees don't have much to spare
It’s a high-scoring game tonight, but I think it’s because it was Livan Hernandez on the mound.
Yankees were swept by the Sox. Again. They’re 0-8 against the Red Sox this season.
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
game just ended
It was the most bizarre ending ever. A-Rod popped it up, and it looked game over, Mets win. But Castillo dropped it. He let it bounce out of his glove. I don’t know how he missed it. Jeter and Teixeira were both running hard, even though it looked like the game was over, and they scored. A walkoff popup for A-Rod.
I actually feel sorry for K-Rod. Blown save, but he didn’t deserve it.
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
ouch
The funny thing is, you’d expect A-Rod to be on the other end of a play like that. It’s the only real flaw in his game. He can’t catch popups.
I gotta say, the Yankees didn’t deserve to win this one.
I guess the ghosts of Yankee Stadium found the new digs…
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
If he'd gotten the save
He would have tied Francisco Cordero for career saves (226, 32nd most all-time).

"Even Hanigan was o-fer."
I think that if it comes to that, the season isn’t looking good.
These next 2 weeks are really the Reds’ shot to put themselves back up top of the division.

Hanigan
I don’t expect him to keep it up all season, but right now, he’s probably the Reds’ hottest hitter.

thanks
My friend in Pittsburgh must be ecstatic. She’s probably screaming so loud the neighbors think she’s being murdered.

Taveras is the first player to not get on base via a hit, walk, or HBP for 29 straight PA
since Wil Nieves did it for 31 PAs from 2005-2007.
It’s the longest single season streak since Andy Fox went 38 PAs without getting on base in 2004.
"It seems like we're not hitting because we're not getting hits." - Dusty being Dusty
oops, I missed Brad Ausmus's 31-straight PAs of ineptitude in 2006
Willy should pass him tomorrow though.
"It seems like we're not hitting because we're not getting hits." - Dusty being Dusty
I think Fay gives us a clue why Dusty batted Taveras leadoff...
"He’s one of the few guys who has faced this club," Baker said. "He played interleague two years in a row here."
Let me write out a formal proof for you.
Jonny Gomes faced them last year too (probably)
And he seemed to do okay.
by Brendanukkah on Jun 12, 2009 10:55 PM EDT up reply actions
I didn't think it was possible,
but our offense is getting worser and worser.
Do something, Jockety
Reds fan for 40 years!
We definately need Joey,,
And its time for Dusty to sit Rosy, sit Wily and Gomes in the mix with Nix…

Yankees game ending, jesus.
"It seems as if every mistake I've ever made in life I've had an erection in one hand and a Bud Light in the other."
Ok, I got video of this via the mlb.com iPhone app like 2 minutes after it ended.
Still nothing on mlb.com half an hour later. That makes perfect sense.
"Sir, can you please put your pants back on?"
Raleigh police
Have no sense of humor.
Raleigh police arrested a North Carolina State University student last week who was accused of creating a “monster” out of construction barrels and placing it on the side of the road.
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
Has that hit the AP now?
The guy who did that is seriously insane, but I can’t believe they did anything more than make him pay for the barrels here.
