Never seen such a big strike zone...

Never seen such a big strike zone...

But they've never seen Volquez.

I think THIS is the day Bruce doesn't get on base twice.

We saw him in the beginning of the season...And owned us then.

 

[Freest Rolexes]

Since the Cardinals and Marlins aren't for real and the Brewers have issues, can the Reds with Bruce actually compete for the wildcard with probably the Dodgers and Mets?

And I just learned a second ago that the Volquez and Harang lead the league in Ks, one of the best indicators of future pitching performance.

I hate your infield. You can't get SHIT past them.

 

[Zep]

yaaaahhH! First base hit

 

[Flizzzipper]

Dusty Baker is a fucking joke.

 

[Zep]

I love hit n runs with Adam Dunn

 

[vas_a_morir]

I love hit n runs with Adam Dunn

What a fucking dumb-ass move.

 

[Green Shinobi]

wildcard

Dodgers

:lol :lol :lol

 

[jman2050]

I want to do wonderful things to Mike Mussina.

 

[Zep]

That hit the ground first...but Utley did a sell job.

 

[vas_a_morir]

Black Dunn strikes again.

 

[Taxman]

Man, Howard sure isn't the player he was two years ago...

 

[sorryaboutdresden]

It might be time to start watching the phillies you guys..

 

[Flizzzipper]

I loathe Corey Patterson. If he starts tomorrow I may have to take matters into my own hands.

 

[vas_a_morir]

I gotta say, even though it's hard for the Reds, this has been a fantastic series to watch.

could get a lot more fantastic tonight

 

[Flizzzipper]

I just wanted to say no hitter.

 

[vas_a_morir]

could get a lot more fantastic tonight

Dude, he's got this no-hitter shutout in the bag!!! Hey Flizzziper, what do you think about this inevitable no-hitter that is going to happen tonight?

 

[Taxman]

It really feels weird to hear the words "Phillies", "Citizens Bank Park", and "0-0 pitcher's duel" in the same sentence.

 

[sorryaboutdresden]

Don't walk dunn myers

Edit, gj

These guys got their shit going today.

 

[Flizzzipper]

Why in the hell do you even risk the steal with Dunn up, my mind is boggling.

 

[sorryaboutdresden]

Awww pisss

 

[vas_a_morir]

Awww pisss

sssip wwwA!!!!

 

[vas_a_morir]

That swing was UG-LY.

 

[Flizzzipper]

Man, I don't trust Weathers at all this year. Just watching him throw makes my body hurt.

oh, my bad, I forgot you leave your stud ace in to throw the 7th w/ 105 pitches............

 

[Zep]

fuckity fuck fuck.....

Volquez ain't coming out now, no way.

 

[vas_a_morir]

fuckity fuck fuck.....

Volquez ain't coming out now, no way.

Bruceifus is merciful! He obviously didn't get a hit tonight so he wouldn't upstage Volquez.

One the real, though: Volquez is starting to go deeper and deeper into the games lately. He is becoming an "ace." Your ace pitcher has to have stuff to go 8 and sometimes 9 innings. He doesn't have that yet, but in a few years, he'll get it.

 

[Eminem]

Jim Thome just hit the farthest home run ever at US Cellular field

fucking concourse in dead center are you serious

 

[vas_a_morir]

Jewnyer is cummeen owt!

 

[Eminem]

jesus christ that has to be about 600 feet

Although he's effectively wild which helps him a bit, when he tightens up his control it will be...just wow.

 

[vas_a_morir]

BTW, do you guys get that "NAME-us is merciful" reference?

EDIT: Fuck, Patterson.

 

[Eminem]

OK so there is no official word yet on the distance for Thome's home run, but this red arrow is where the ball hit off of on the fly, and keep in mind that it's 400 feet just to the wall in dead center:

 

[Zep]

Volquez gone, time to make our move.

 

[Flizzzipper]

Patterson down to .195, thankfully he wasn't pinch hit for with risp and a lefty in. They even zoomed in to Dusty after Patterson K'd :lol

Oh crap, Bray in to face the heart of the order.

 

[vas_a_morir]

Volquez gone, time to make our move.

Oh, you will. I have no doubts in my mind.

 

[jman2050]

I love Scott Downs. He's so reliable.

 

[sorryaboutdresden]

DUNNN
:lol :lol

 

[Flizzzipper]

Ugh, Reds defense is just awful.

 

[sorryaboutdresden]

Howard is broked

 

[Zep]

Ryan you are breaking my heart.

 

[vas_a_morir]

Uh oh! Cordero in to blow the save!

 

[sorryaboutdresden]

Good job pat

 

[sorryaboutdresden]

PISSSS out my asss

 

[Zep]

Come on Geoff, this motherfucker was throwing nothing to hit...Way to bail him out.

 

[pollo]

btw Brandon Webb can eat cock, the real CY Young is Volquez.

 

[Adam Blade]

Does anyone have the interleague records for this year?
