I believe I'm 2-0 as thread starter.

THIS IS DEFINITELY GOING TO BE A LOSS. WE ARE GOING TO LOSE.

On a side note...justin, anyone, etc....I'm going to the game with my dad and a few friends on Saturday (I think). I'm looking on Stubhub, tickets in section 103 (first section in LF) are going for $25 a piece. Not bad. You think that's my best option? We don't want to spend too much, but don't want to sit way up. Fuck I haven't been to GABP in 2 years I think

If you know where they are, you can see the exact view on the Reds website. Those seats (102-105) or right-field bleachers is where I usually like to sit. For $25 per without extra fees or what not, that's a good deal.

Depends. I've bought stuff and picked them up...

Face value of the tickets you're talking about, I just checked the Reds site, start at $27 and up to $45...

Right field seats are where I always sit. Sections 141-146 are the right field seats and they're where I'll be Saturday. Should be a good crowd so 25 isn't bad for either side. Get right field bleachers and you can see the scoreboard which is what I prefer.

As for this game, Braves win convincingly. 11-5. Jay Bruce hits a solo HR in the 9th.

Zero chance the reds win today.

6 game win streaks dont come along very often.
You dont sweep teams, even the bad ones, very often.
It is hard enough to sweep a 3 game set, let alone a 4 gamer.

I wish i had 100,000 vdolllars to bet on the braves for this one

Delgado vs the best 4th starter in baseball, Bailey. I didn't see his at bat from last night but someone said Chipper didn't look good? I doubt he plays if he was still in noticeable pain last night.

Chipper definitely didn't look healthy.

One of my buddies from school is from hotlanta. He will probably cry if Chipper doesn't play and the Reds sweep 4.

Not a Reds fan, but a fan of Lotz's soul being crushed.

Are you bringing a broom with you?

I'm not, because that would be lame.

Seems unlikely. Reds win 5-2 on 3 cheap HRs.

Lol the reds dont have 19 singles in the last week. Reds win 6-2, on 3 homers.

You're right, scoring 6 runs is unlikely. Reds win 5-4 on 15 singles.

Bailey cements his place as an elite number 4 starter tonight. 5 IP, 4 runs, 5 ks, 3 walks, 7 hits, gets a no decision.

That sounds like a pretty shitty pitching line. Pretty similar to his first start of the season. Luckily he's had 6 starts that have far exceeded this.

He can't be lights out every start or he'd be more of a top of the rotation guy. If he continues pitching well, I can see him being the 2nd or 3rd best #3 man by year's end. Do you agree?

No Chipper, McCann, or Freeman tonight. Bailey might throw a no no.

Maybe if it was the playoffs and not May 24.

I see him topping out at a great #3. I also have no problem with him staying a great #4. I'll take a good start from him 3 out of 4 times. Reading twitter on days he pitches is brutal. If he gives up a run people are calling for his head. He's been very good this season and people want him gone. It doesn't make sense.
