    They got the win last night! Terrible weather last night. Rain delay, then the drizzle kept coming back.

    I'm going again tonight and i'll be there tomorrow. I'll post some pictures when the series is done.

    Glad you got to see Voltron roll. He is pretty amazing so far. Atleast they won 1 game while you were there.

    Yeah EV dealt! I sat real close and he was popping Bako's glove all night. Harang was dealing at the beginning of his game then it all went downhill after Adrian Gonzalez took him deep. Harang gave up a double, a walk (I think), then AG goes deep......ALL WITH 2 OUTS!!!!!:banghead: Harang got rocked the rest of the way in a very unHarang-like outing.

    Hopefully Bronson pitches well and the Reds hit tonight. We really need to start scoring more runs.

    I don't have a good feeling about Sunday......Belisle is on the hill against Maddux who OWNS the Reds.

    2nd straight win for the Reds! I got some great photos tonight!

    The bats finally showed up and Arroyo pitched well. Nervous about tomorrow, Belisle vs. Maddux.

    I'm nervous anytime belisle takes the mound. I pretty much write it off as a loss.

    ya, it should have gone on longer. In the bottom of the 9th, it was 2 outs with one runner on and the Padres hit a routine ground ball to the 1st baseman who fumbled it, but still had time to throw the runner out at first and he threw it past the pitcher coming over to cover and next batter, Adrian Gonzalez bombed it.

    Bruce belts one to RF, walk-off solo HR.

    Can we please move Bruce down to AAA and Patterson back up? Bruce just isn't ready for the majors, period. :mad:


    But for real, this kid is the real deal. He has yet to disappoint me yet, honestly.

    Bruce is 21 and he's already arguably the best player on this team? wow!

    He has enough speed and instinct to steal a base, a very good glove, he gets to balls that some of the faster players can't get to just because they don't have the jump he does on the ball.

    Seriously though, I don't see where there is any argument that Bruce is a 5 tool player.

    He's very impressive and I'm a huge fan already, but let's give him a little more than a week before we anoint him king

    I really like how they've been winning so many close games late... It's a nice change of pace.

    Yep. It is a shame he did not get to do it this past weekend. WOuld have been nice with a big crowd at GABP. I like how he has requested only marty to call his at bats until 600. I love marty.
