Gay Dame IGT - 5/5/10, @Reds

[Fman99]

Let's turn 3!

[Centerfield]

Whatever. Our catcher woulda hit it out. Toughen up and get this bottom of the order.

[Gwreck]

Uh-oh. Big trouble here.

[Gwreck]

Big K of Stubbs but the bases are still loaded.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Well, I guess that could have been worse.

[Gwreck]

Matthews Jr. did do something useful, I guess.

[TransMonk]

I'm a little late on this, but Jose Reyes popping up with the bases loaded and one out:

BOOOO!!

Third my ass.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Alex Cora is playing some PotG-quality ball today.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Buttend of the lineup (OK, the 2 leadoff men) setting up the meat again here in the 5th. 2nd & 3rd, 1 out for Reyes, Bay, Wright

[Guest attgig]

cora headfirst slide. maybe he wants to break his finger again?

[Gwreck]

Jose! How about a nice single to bring home your friends Angel and Alex?

[Guest Edgy DC]

Pitching around Reyes with Bay coming up.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Jose ties it with a groundout

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Hey, Bay: BOOOOOOOO

[Guest Edgy DC]

Jason Bay is strandiin' today.

[Centerfield]

How different would this roadtrip have been if we could have consistently retired the pitcher?

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Blanco nails Votto stealing: 5-for-5 in steal prevention

[Guest attgig]

i love our catchers

[Guest Edgy DC]

Henry Blanco brings 'em down with a taser.

[Theoldmole]

What's the record for caught stealing percentage by a catcher?

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Just ahead of Brandon Phillips' HR. Geez is Niese allowing some baserunners today, 11 hits already!

[Guest attgig]

frickin...

[Theoldmole]

I found the answer -- 68.1 percent, by Roy Campanella of my beloved and mourned 1951 Brooklyn Dodgers.

About 8 of them cheesy.
Niese has a ridonculously high BaBiP. You figure that's got to come down at some point although it's been that way throughout his (brief) ML career.

[Guest attgig]

crap crap 2nd home run...

[metirish]

Gomes with a homer......

[Guest Edgy DC]

We can't catch that jetstream?

[Guest Edgy DC]

I like big parks and I just can't lie.

[Guest attgig]

we just caught the jetstream =)

[metirish]

Kentucky owns the Ohio river?......Wright with a homer
