Cueto vs. Marcum.

Anybody care? Haha this is the first time I have had to start a thread. Hopefully it brings us a little luck!

Stubbs did just fine last night in the lead off spot.

The fact that Rolen may be an All-Star, is laughable.

We should always base our opinions off one night's performance and ignore his performance over the past 80+ games

Lewis RBI double followed by Hernandez 2-run shot. 3-2 Redlegs.

Pitching around Bruce didn't help Marcum! Very opportune gap shot with Bruce moving from first on the pitch cut the lead in half. Then Ramon blsted that ball to CF to give the Reds the lead, something they have had in all 3 games in Milw. Let's see if Johnny and the defense can keep the tying run from scoring from 3rd with one out?

Cueto is sucking a little.

Stubbs had a chance to hold the Brewers to one fewer run but with 2 outs he chooses to pull up on a shallow fly ball. Chris Welsh kinda let him have it saying you gotta dive for that ball....but Stubbs almost always hesitates to dive coming in....to make it worse he was playing extremely deep and again got a poor jump.

Suicide squeeze executed perfectly ties it at 3. On pace for a 15-14 game!

I can't name very many that came up to the bigs for the first time and not bust their ass every chance.

Yes, made a failed bid for a 3 run HR work out as well as a successful sacrifice bunt.

Horse shit....struck out Lewis too

This guy looked awful...bases loaded 1-0 count....from there on he threw several 68-70 mph curves and placed an 86-89 mph fastball to make Rolen and Lewis look silly. Huge opportunity missed.

Rolen is going to be the 4th Reds all-star
