IU Scott Posted September 27, 2023 Report Share Posted September 27, 2023 Not looking good for the Reds down 4-0 after 4. The Guardians has 10 hits with 9 being singles and most of those are ground balls right up the middle. Reds only have 1 hit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt and add the game vs the Twins where Bell took out Green after 7 innings. I think we were up 3-0 and the bullpen gave it up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted September 28, 2023 Report Share Posted September 28, 2023 Reds lose 4-3 to Cleveland. In the top of the 9th Marte tried for a double but was called out at second. The replay showed his hand hit the bag before he was tagged but the replay said he was out. What a hose job. In this 2 game series Starters 5.1 IP 10 runs 16 hits Relievers 11.2 IP 1 run 3 hits It seems like we can't get both tnr starters and relievers pitching well at the same time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, as long as they win 1 of the final 3 and finish with a winning record, I will consider it to be a successful season considering what I thought it would be like. Position players appear solid for next season. Need to figure out some things in the starting rotation, and need to strengthen the bullpen.

A lot of bullpen problems around the league late in the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proud2BAHoosier Posted September 28, 2023 Report Share Posted September 28, 2023 Geritt Cole probably put the finshing touches on the Cy Young award tongiht, (IMO), pitching a complete game in Toronto. Cole allowed 2 hits and threw 105 pitches and finished his season with an AL best 2.63 ERA!!! And Aaron Judge, who missed almost 2 months, smacked 2-2 run homers in a 6-0 win! Guess what team has the best record in the MLB since late August? Anyone care to guess? Why it's none other than the NEW YORK YANKEES!!! Too bad it was too little too late 😒 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted September 29, 2023 Report Share Posted September 29, 2023 Cubs lose Marlins up 2-1 in the 9th in a rain delay. Mets was up 1-0 but Marlins has scored two in the top of the 9th.

They don't revert back to previous inning like they used to, do they? Suspend the game and finish Monday if it factors into the standings? Mets will have no motivation for something like that. Hopefully, they resume tonight and the Mets can come back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This might be the worst regular season choke job I've seen of the Cubs ever. They were red hot most of second half of season until the Arizona series at home and then just playing poorly. How big are those two games they were up in the bottom of the 9th and blew to the Reds back to back? Really disappointing. But, like I said earlier this week, they don't deserve to make the playoffs the way they have played/managed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 3 to the Braves were galling... losing leads in all 3 and allowing unearned runs in each game killed us...
