Orlando Cabrera 6
Brandon Phillips 4
Joey Votto 3
Scott Rolen 5
Jay Bruce 9
Laynce Nix 7
Drew Stubbs 8
Ryan Hanigan 2
Bronson Arroyo 1

vs. RHP Ross Ohlendorf (0-0, 3.60 ERA).

Here are the Reds starters pitches per inning pitched:
Player P/IP
1. M Leake 14.61
2. A Harang 18.17
3. B Arroyo 16.53
4. J Cueto 18.48
5. H Bailey 20.13

So even though Leake has thrown slightly more innings than Harang, he has thrown 139 fewer pitches!

Reds are 14th in the NL in ERA, and 7th in innings pitched per start at 5.9.

Hopefully the Reds can get a sweep of the Bucs this time around! Wouldn't that be nice!?

I'd like to see Nix and Hanigan switched in the batting order. Hanigan needs some more at bats, at least until he cools off (if he does at all). The Pirates play well at home, hopefully guys like Votto, Cabrera, Bruce, and Phillips continue their recent success......

Johnny Gomes has been tearing it up. I think he should sit tonight!

Hopefully the Pirates can do what they did the last time they played the Reds. That would make me happy and I like to be happy.

Loaded here with 1 out.


And good lord. Bronson pops out and Cabrera weakly grounds out.

And Arroyo gives up a bomb to left making it 2-1 Reds.

Reds scored in the top half off a double by Rolen, scoring Joey

Arty comes in in relief of Bronson and shuts the door hard.

Terrible call at the plate.....Gomes was safe. Hopefully that call doesn't come back to bite them in the bottom of the inning. The Pirates are just annoying.

He slid directly into the catcher's foot pushing it back, ALL before the the tag was made.

Gomes looked safe to me, he was chugging.
Hopefully Cordero can nail it down.

Nice, got the win.

Great pitching tonight.

Up until Cabrera's double in the 9th, the 1-3 hitters were something like 0-12...and we still got the win!

Big win, now on to the next. No let ups...especially against the Pirates. After they swept us, anything short of a sweep of them is a disappointment.

Good win for the Reds. Cordero did his usual charade but he got it done.

Why again was Gomes not in the lineup? Haha. Because Ohlendorff has been "tough on righties...well that was mostly last season." -Chris Welsh

Hey your boy Laynce Nix drove in one of our two runs, I wouldn't complain too much.

2-1 was hardly exciting, but it gets the job done.

Nice play by Arroyo. Another quality start from the lanky righty.
