1:15 p.m.
RHP Daniel Ponce de Leon (0-0, 3.86) vs. RHP Luis Castillo (0-2, 3.91)
FS Midwest // KMOXUpdate: Tyler Mahle is the starter for the Reds.
August 23, 2020 at 7:16 am #136521The Cards could really use this one. They’ve been straddling the .500 mark and need to start clawing over it. Ponce has been great at times but hasn’t gone deep into games. Hopefully we can get 5 effective innings from him and get the offense going a bit.
August 23, 2020 at 9:32 am #136526Yep, it’s time for them to rip off an 8-2 record over the next 10 games.
August 23, 2020 at 10:37 am #136531Castillo is a very good pitcher. The Cards hitters are going to need to make him work to get into the pen. And Ponce needs a good start to keep things close.
August 23, 2020 at 10:49 am #136532DeJong activated. Elledge optioned out.

August 23, 2020 at 10:56 am #136534August 23, 2020 at 11:04 am #136536So Tommy looking more and more comfortable every AB and were just going to start sitting him???
And Molina back up that high? Drives me nuts!!! He shouldn’t be above 8th in the order! Hope he goes 4-4 to prove me wrong, but I’ll still say hit him 8th.
I would have kept Elledge around. He’s looked really good and deserves more innings. Way more than any LH in that pen, especially Webb.
August 23, 2020 at 11:05 am #136537Gomber has had 3 days rest
Sanchez 3 days
Reyes 2
Cabrera 1
Woodford 1
Webb 1August 23, 2020 at 11:35 am #136544No Fowler from the left side but they play Carlson and Bader. We’ll see I guess.

Carlson is a switch hitter……when he hits.
August 23, 2020 at 1:31 pm #1365651982 willieParticipantwell ponces thoughts on trying to go deeper into games isnt looking great today. Almost 30 pitches in the first inning. Best way to last longer, throw strikes and throw them often. Pitching from behind in the count only leads to problems.
August 23, 2020 at 1:32 pm #136566Welp, Ponce pitched like crap in the 1st.
August 23, 2020 at 1:49 pm #1365671982 willieParticipantthe difference in the inning…. ponce got behind to their cleanup hitter, he hit a pitch down the middle over the fence. Their pitcher got behind our cleanup hitter, he fouled off a pitch down the middle.
August 23, 2020 at 1:57 pm #136568Ponce is going to destroy the bullpen today. We really needed a more efficient game from him. This game is the opposite of yesterday so far, with an inning and a half chewing up nearly an hour.
August 23, 2020 at 2:07 pm #136569Dylan Carlson has a good eye, it seems. Unfortunately, he’s got a hole in his bat, or at least a weak spot in it. He really did lose out with the lack of AAA ball this year.
August 23, 2020 at 2:08 pm #136570Harrison Bader silences the naysayers for a moment with a 2 run homer to center. We are tied up at 2 apiece.
August 23, 2020 at 2:11 pm #1365711982 willieParticipantway to go harry. Back to even here.
August 23, 2020 at 2:11 pm #136572bccranParticipantGood to see Bader get that. Hope he keeps it going.
August 23, 2020 at 2:26 pm #1365751982 willieParticipantyea cause no one else on this team needs to get going.
August 23, 2020 at 2:28 pm #1365771982 willieParticipantthats a pitch oneil has to hit hard somewhere.
August 23, 2020 at 2:29 pm #136578Molina’s single plates Goldy in B3rd for a 3-2 lead.
August 23, 2020 at 2:29 pm #1365791982 willieParticipantnice pickup there molina
August 23, 2020 at 2:47 pm #136583Lorenzen, the new pitcher, threw one up and in on Bader. The Reds must think he had been crowding the plate. Shortly after, Carlson was tagged out at the plate. Still 3-2 Cards heading into the 5th.
August 23, 2020 at 2:53 pm #1365851982 willieParticipantim not sure i agreed with the bunt there. Wong has been one of our best hitters. Miller was hot for a moment but not now. Thats how he is. i would have went with my consistent guy getting a hit over giving up an out to get up a inconsistent guy especially a pull hitter.
