Well contreras gives one a ride. Might be enough. Ill be honest i expected the reds to be a little better at this point of the season wuth francona managing. Offense is a big struggle for them. Cardinals struggle that way too but i expected them to. Usually the reds issues have been pitching. Their pitching isnt terrible this year mostly.
The Reds have some really good young starters Willie. But unfortunately for them, Francona doesn’t hit.
3 really loud pieces of contact in 3 batters thus far against Alcala. One that the hitter got just under and went to the warning track. The next was a long homer. And the most recent went just foul. Then a walk. Alcala out of the game after 1/3 inning.
JJ – Yeah – they picked him up off waivers about 3 weeks ago.
Good stuff. Really poor control. Kind of like Roycroft. Just gives us a depth BP arm.
Yea jnevel i hear ya. Just kind of odd that their hitting would go south but i guess it happens that way sometimes. Maybe im overestimating francona. Cardinals have good arms as well. Teams are prob about even on paper as they are in standings.
According to gamecast, in the 8th the pitches to Church were FB 99, FB 99, FB 98, Cutter 92. FB 99. K.
Welcome to the show.
Coming into today, Pages has a 191 WRC+ in August. He had been best in baseball for a few weeks but he’s dropped back to 9th. That home run helps.
Blaze Jordan got his first Redbirds homer tonight.
Matthews also pitching well tonight for Memphis. 4 innings and 1 hit allowed thus far.
Tanner Franklin started the Peoria game tonight after just one outing at Palm Beach. 2 1/3 innings, no hits, 3 K’s, 3 walks, 1 earned run. I didn’t watch any of it. Just looking at the box score.
