Did Brian Anderson just say that not many left handers have a weak spot with their hitting down and in? Geoff Jenkins would be the poster child for those that suffer from Down and Ins.

[DHonks]

agreed about Graffy. He might have a solid arm and ability to play SS and 2b, but he has very slow reflexes. Counsell is much more sure-handed.

 

And it sure is nice having a RF with range this year. The best part is that Jenkins' range is good for LF, even if it was poor for RF

It could be a myth, but it's an accepted fact of baseball that lefties tend to like the ball down and in. No idea why that is.

[jloos19]

That was such a ball it's not even funny.

I thought it was a strike. Looked like it had some cut on it, and likely nipped the front corner of the plate.

[And That]

55 pitches through 2 IP for Milton, Not bad at all.

[adamb100]

Hart should get a gold glove.

[NormanBoobie]

I love Corey Hart.

[AJAY]

I think Hart needs to practice finding the homerun wall a little better. He seems to think he is closer to the wall than he actually is. It's happened a couple of times already.

[adamb100]

Weeks keeps hitting that ball.

 

2-0

[statman0007]

This convinces me: Rickie is officially a top-tier second baseman.

[igor67]

Holy cow is this Reds radio announcer bad. I'm not one to complain, but I can hear the gears grinding in his head before every call, either that or he keeps gasping inaudibly. Then Weeks homer call sounded like a fly ball! Just a monotone into left field he's going back, then he's looking up and it's a two-0 ball game. Good grief Vulcan's show more emotion than this guy.

[And That]

Rickie Weeks is a horrible lead-ff batter.

[jason21nl]

weeks is really starting to show his power...this guy could really turn out to be great

+1. The guy sounds like a mongoloid.

Nice charging play by Graffy to end the inning there against the speedy Phillips.

[crewcrazy]

This is kind of off-topic, but how many freaking times have the Reds made adjustments to their uniforms in recent years? It seems like they redo something every year...this year they change the lettering/number shape and put sleeves back on the jerseys (not that I'm complaining about these unis..I think they actually look pretty nice compared to the old ones).

[DHonks]

tough one for Estrada. He didn't see the ball off the bat. Amazing that that's an error but Graffy's the last two games aren't ruled errors. His was much tougher to make

[Vgmastr]

Nice job by Capuano to strand the lead-off double.

[And That]

Weeks making an out by popping out is probably the least surprising thing I've seen in the past few weeks.

[crewcrazy]

Another 0 put up by Cappy. Here comes all the "Cappy is the REAL ace" posts again. Great.

[Bikeage77]

Santos coming in...I dunno what I should think about this...I wanna love it, but I could see him killing us too

[crewcrazy]

Vic Santos lives!

[DHarris34Phan]

Who cares if those threads pop up? I'd rather have Cappy pitching great and the threads pop up than the opposite.

[bucks2281]

That sucks. Too bad Hall couldn't have advanced to second and lessened the damage there.
