Wish we had a sinkerballer in the pen to pitch after Cueto because I dont think either starter will go 5.

The trick is how many you can hit as just getting over the wall with a bunch is better than a few going way out! It looks like its is a combination of temp, high humidity, and low pressure making the air density very low allowing the ball to get great carry in the air! I don't know how the diamond is laid out, but I'll bet it is such that the wind from the SSE at 9 mph is helping the carry also!

Hustling Jonny Gomes beats the throw as Lopez has trouble in his glove and gets a late weak throw to try to get the force. Then Stubbs beat the force out throw from the 3B/SS hole to set up a possible big inning with the bases loaded and no out, but Cueto hits into a 3-2-3 DP.

Gomes busts his ass at everything. Most intense guy ever. After his SO in the first he about winged his bat into the dugout.

I think Del Rosario has a ground out to fly out ratio that is highly in favor of ground outs.

important inning for Cueto. Middle/bottom of the Cards order coming up. Will be critical to keep the ball down, or if at all possible limit walks and not Larue drive in Rasmus etc.

I think Cueto was safe at 1st....coulda been a 3-run double, Cueto has some wheels. I love that the Reds are taking punches and counter-punching with authority.

and boom goes the dynamite
solo shot, ok. But giving up a single to Larue, inexcusable. Get me over fast ball on first pitch, the only ball larue could hit. Cmon Johnny

I was actually thinking the same thing. That was mighty close.

Reds are still getting good at bats here in the 6th, nothing to show over the past two innings though. Gonna come down to middle relief (yikes). Del Rosario?

Gonna go out on a limb here and say that Brandon hits a ground ball and jogs to first.

well, need a ground ball dp here, but I don't know he has the movement to do it tonight.
