Cueto vs Chacin

Kinda need this win....need Cueto to go 6+ for 3 runs or less and that should be good enough.

Would've liked Dusty to have pinch hit someone else in the 5th yesterday other than Alonso.....he was the lefty matchup bu would rather have used Rolen, Cabrera or Cairo in that situation....oh well

I fully expect the Reds to bounce back the same way they have all year! Starting pitching needs to get back on track! Have they put Harang on the DL for the rest of the year yet? His days in a Reds uniform should be over.

MVP.....Votto

Eency bit behind.....GarGo

Eency bit behind CarGo....Pujols

No one else should even sniff a top 3 vote.....as of now of course...but there is a significant gap.

The Reds have answered almost every test after a poor outing....I will say this particular series has scared me for a while....a win tonight and me being skeptical will be me being stupid.

2 of the next 3 and I'd be confident in getting playoff tickets

I'm sitting at 93 %

Just paid for the first 2 series worth of playoff tickets today.

3-2 in bottom of the 6th

Cueto insanely stubborn with his fastball in the 1st inning....3-0

Phillips with an error.

He also was thrown out trying to stretch a hit into a double.

Reds need someone to step up

It should be illegal for the team mascot to be in the pitcher's backround during the pitch.....I've seen it more this year than ever.....and each time the opponent has scored.

darn Olivo drills a double to score a run on the 2 out error preceding

C'mon Reds!

BP's error turns into a big insurance run. I was hoping the 3rd out at 3rd was going to give a couple Reds hitters another shot at Chacin, but Tracy takes him out anyway.

Alonso smokes one up the middle and Phillips hits into a DP....definately not his day

That being said it's just 4-2....he could still win this game for the Reds

The BP DP takes the air out of the inning for the Reds after a the lead-off hitter reaches. Without the insurance run they could have bunted to avoid that!

Dusty only bunts people who can't bunt


Rhodes looks very gimpy

Young and Fowler crank it up on the their first AB against each pitcher!

I've watch or attended every Reds game but maybe 3 this season.....I cannot recall Stubbs ever diving to make a catch
