IU Scott Posted August 30, 2023 Report Share Posted August 30, 2023 Reds defense is atrocious today. In the 6th inning Gibault came in with runners in 1st and 3rd and one out. Before throwing a pitch he tried to pick off the runner but threw it past first baseman. So far that is the only run SF has scored. In the 7th inning with a runner on 1st and one out SF hit a grounder back to the pitcher but Cruz had a throwing error to second base. Reds up 2-1 but SF has two runners on.

IU Scott Posted August 30, 2023 Report Share Posted August 30, 2023 Reds went 5-5 on their west coast road trip. You almost forgot that I bet swept the Angels to start the road trip due to how bad their last two series were. Good sign that Green pitched well going 5.1 innings and 3 hits, 1 unearned run.

In last night's game against Detroit, the first 8 batters all struck out!! But the Yanks did manage a 4-1 win with Severino pitching a decent game no less. I think Severino was auditioning for other teams as I don't think he will be back in New York next year, JMO. Looks like the Tigers and their non-existent offense were just what the doctor ordered for your Yankees. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted August 31, 2023 Report Share Posted August 31, 2023 Reds claimed to OF off waivers Harrison Bader from the Yankees and Hunter Renfroe from the Angels. Should be an upgrade over Hopkins and Fairchild. Renfroe another home run guy who K's a lot, should fit in perfectly with the Reds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proud2BAHoosier Posted August 31, 2023 Report Share Posted August 31, 2023 Hey Reds fans, looks like they have acquired ex-Yankee, Harrison Bader off waivers. They got a good one. Also in the news it looks like the Brewers are interested in recently released ex-Yankee Josh Donaldson! Ironic, 2 ex-Yanks playing for playoff contenders..... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeking6 Posted August 31, 2023 Report Share Posted August 31, 2023 Both Reds and Cubs fans thinking the same thing. Need 3 of 4 this weekend. Good thing Milwaukee is at Philly. Baltimore is in Arizona and SF down in San Diego so tough series for other Wild Card teams. Temps warming up again. Expect some runs this weekend for sure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5fouls Posted August 31, 2023 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2023 Reds have 5-4 season lead on Cubs. A 2-2 split is good for the Reds in that it clinches the tiebreaker, but bad for the Reds because they would not gain ground. They need a 3-1 outcome. On the flip side, if the Cubs go 3-1 the Reds for all intents and purposes will not catch them. And, even if they did, the Cubs would have the tiebreaker in that scenario. Reds own tiebreaker against D-Backs but lose tiebreaker against Giants. The reds and Marlins split the season series, so I do not know how that is resolved if they finished tied.

5fouls Posted August 31, 2023 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2023 I would be remiss to leave our good friends on the banks of the Mississippi out of this discussion. Unfortunately, even if they sweep the Pirates this weekend, the Pirates have the tiebreaker. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted August 31, 2023 Report Share Posted August 31, 2023 To me it is hard to believe that the Reds are 11-1 vs the AL West. We need to play them more often. 3-0 Rangers at home 3-0 at the Astros 3-0 at the Angels 2-1 at the A's They play at home vs Seattle in the next week I believe.

Proud2BAHoosier Posted August 31, 2023 Report Share Posted August 31, 2023 Yanks lost today in 10 innings to Detroit. But there was history made today when Yankee Anthony Volpe, became the first rookie in Yankee history to go 20-20 when he hit his 20th homer of the season to go with 20 stolen bases. Volpe did it in dramatic fashion as he smacked a 3 run home run in the top of the 9th with 2 outs to tie the game at 3!! When you think of Yankee history, that's pretty incredible.... took this off the Yankee web-site... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted August 31, 2023 Report Share Posted August 31, 2023 It looks like the Reds also out claims in for the 3 Angels pitchers as well. Giolito, Perez and Moore but they went to the Guardians Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
