2017 MLB Game #111: Cards at Reds Sun Aug 6

Whats the over/under that Scooter Gennett hits four homeruns off of Wainwright today?

And it looks like there might be some rain in the Cincinnati area. Hope this one gets played today, and without major delays.

We don’t have a cleanup hitter. Need one very badly. We do have a surplus of hitters that strikeout all the time, however.

And in spite of the homerun last night DeJong is struggling as of late. Not sure why Matheny keeps running a young guy that’s struggling out there in the #3 hole.

Gyorko is lost at the plate nowadays too. Glad to see him get another day off.

And Wainwright is up to his bad self to start. Singles by Hamilton and Cozart and then a three run homer by Votto. 3-0 Reds in the 1st, they are still batting, nobody out.

So we’ve had 6 batters to open the game. Three Cardinals have made outs and three Reds have scored. Might be a good day to do some yard work.

Glad I have plans to go kayaking

Horrible first inning for Wainwright. He’s not had a turd like that for some time.

Yep, for a guy who’s taken a lot of criticism for his defense, that was a perfect play, perfect throw by Carpenter. It possibly gives us a chance in this game, but somebody from the pen is going to have to go a long middle stint. Now I’m going to do my yard work and will check back in an hour to see if we’re still in it. 😉

Grichuk breaks a 0 for 10 slump tie game

And with Garcia’s hit somehow we’re actually leading this game…

Twice now runners in scoring position and less than two outs and we leave them there.

Now we’re in the 4th and up 13-3…I’m not making that up, Martinez with a grand slam and Voit with a 2 run ground rule double to do the bulk of the scoring…
