27 scoreless innings. Wasting some good pitching. JGDC.

Three consecutive shut-outs. Cool.

The other team only scored 5 runs in those three games.

Team ERA was 2.89 going into this game, so it actually dropped. And they're 1-6. They've only score 11 runs in 7 games.

It’s karma for being greedy with Senzel

FWIW: our radio crew was saying tonight how impressed they were with the Reds in spring training.  

But......it's baseball and this shit happens.

I do have to admit that I was a bit mystified yesterday. Five pitchers get 1-3 batters and then Iglesias to be in for however long it takes? Good job, dude. You burnt out your closer for today (fortunately, you guys have Monday off) and wound up losing because closers and 3-inning stretches don't really go together all that well. I think right now that all the Pirates fans that bitch about Hurdle and his strategies (me included) need to STFU because from what I've seen this year, Bell is a lot worse.

Dietrich watches HR forever lol, gets plunked, Bell pissed and then Puig showed his passion.

 

Puig’s gonna be out 5 or so games...but maybe this team is ready to fight now

Was this why he was plunked?

Actually thrown behind. It was the longest I’ve ever seen a player watch a HR. He and Archer played 6x a year last few years. Guessing Archer was a bit too happy after fanning him a time or two in the past. But the  posing did it yesterday.

He hit it into the river. I’d fucking pose too. Archer is a douche who likes to show batters up, but can’t take it when a batter does it.

This is ok, but don’t you dare admire your HR

11-0 Reds going to the 7th. Castillo pitching a gem, per usual.
