Has pulling Vaughn ever freaking worked.   Ever.    It’s a stupid move 

Most, if not all,of the time he does it because he’s planning to make a move for defense anyway. So put the faster runner in.

But I don’t like the move in a tie game where you might need his bat later.

Sals BA when going to left is 100 points higher I'm guessing.

[Bulldogboy]

Sacrifice with Joey up?

Cool, I totally have faith in Joey Ortiz here.

As far as I'm concerned anything less than a two-run lead before the 9th means he stays in the lineup.

How does Ortiz come up every time we really need a hit??

[yourout]

Frelick hitting 343 over his last 15 games. 

. 280 over his last 30

I know that should have been in blue, but...

[Nola Beery]

Did that really happen?!??😅

Good for you Joey. This is a resilient bunch, loved the way they fought back today after a disappointing Cubs series. 

[MadScientist]

Really glad the Reds brought in that righty to face Ortiz.

[adambr2]

lol. Of course it’s Ortiz 

[GoondockSaint]

I just spit out my vodka cranberry drink 

[titletownking]

Probably one of my favorite wins of the season, a clean 9th pending. 

[TURBO]

Chourio wincing with every swing...  I don't like that.

My earlier reply was “kinda silly” … you were right all along!

[jason21nl]

Chourio missed 3 pitches he should have hit out of the stadium. 

[TURBO]

I do like Joey, and I root for him, so this is good stuff!
