Corky Miller did WHAT?!?

At least this Votto HR made sense to me.

At least this Votto HR made sense to me.

Okay, there are some things I don't understand about this game:

  • Kip Wells pitched seven innings of five-hit ball, giving up only one run.
  • CORKY FREAKING MILLER hit a three-run home run.

At least there are some things I understand, though, like Joey Votto hitting a two run HR.

That said, I'm going to have to say that Kip Wells was the Joe Nuxhall Memorial Honorary Star of the Game.  On top of that other stuff, he didn't walk anybody!

Thanks for doing a game recap, Gray

I moved over the weekend, and my house still doesn’t have the internet up and running, so I may be leaning on you for the rest of the week.

Is there some way to reorder FP posts?

While I was writing it, ken put up the Reposter, which I’d rather have listed above this.

Let me write out a formal proof for you.

Thanks, whoever did that.

Maybe someone could clue me in, too…

also filed under "not surprising"

Janish hit a double.

2 for 4 with a double and a walk.

While that bum Hanley Ramirez was 1 for 4 with 2 Ks.

Yet.

I starting to think the Janish double-matic

is not a fluke. It would be great if he could hit in the .240 range and hit a good number of doubles

Thanks for the recap

I’m really amazed by what Kip Wells did in this game. When he pitched so well against the Braves, I thought it was a combo of being lucky, a weak opposing offense and Escobar being out. In this game, though, he was facing a fairly potent offense and some difficult weather conditions. Additionally, he didn’t walk anyone which, with his control issues, is astounding. I’m afraid he may have secured a job, but if he pitches like this, that’s fine. I’m not convined he could pitch like this very often though.

That pic is great, btw. The rain surrounding Votto looks like snow, it’s actually a little artistic. I think Bubba would be proud of that AP guy!

he probably has secured a job

in Washington.

The Reds need a new manager, one like Putin.

Definitely a good argument.

1) I am posting from my phone and didn't feel like waiting forever for a real website to load so suck it. :P

2) I’ll streak fountain square if there were 16,000 people there. I’ll see if I can post a pic as proof.

get yourself the Reds.com link

the MLB mobile site is pretty good. Link right to yesterday’s game on the front page, click to the boxscore, scroll down. Viola!

Definitely a good argument.

just installed the reds.com shortcut/app, snazzy

Thanks!

Especially the CPD.
