It’s very, very frustrating"' Duh.... Ya think??? 🤪 The dude got to pitch in a MLB game in a cornfield. Regardless of anything else, he has that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a hot dog bathed in Mac N Cheese at Disney World a few years back. Those two items need to be kept separate. I was not a fan at all of that one. I would have thought mac n cheese might have been decent, more so than apple pie. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proud2BAHoosier Posted August 13, 2021 Report Share Posted August 13, 2021 (edited) Yankee fans want the team to be blown up as some fans are wanting them to be ousted from the playoffs. Here's an interesting quote from one fan: "We've got 47 games left....Part of me wants to root for them to win, but the objective realist wants them to quickly get ousted from the race, so that maybe, just maybe, a significant outcry can be heard and something more than window dressing and working around the edges will be done in off-season. If not, we will be right back here at same place with same problems next year. If you look at the active and 40man rosters at the beginning of season, at least half of each need to be replaced by next year. Odor, Davis, Voit, Gallo, Frazier, Andujar, Sanchez, Torres, Heaney, Kriske, Nelson, need to be DFA, traded, something, to get guys who can hit the ball, run the bases, and catch the ball. Need to think outside the box and see if there is any way to rid ourselves of Stanton, and kick the tires on what Judge might bring in major league ready players and/or top ten prospects. Or keep doing the same things and you know, I think, maybe, the people in that room will turn things around. It's just a matter of time. We are nothing more than the Cincinnati Reds with an excellent PR machine and gullible fans. " (sorry Reds fans)....

IU Scott Posted August 14, 2021 Report Share Posted August 14, 2021 Really good win for the Reds beating the Phillies 6-1. With Zach Wheeler pitching for the Phillies I expected the exact opposite to happen. Mahle pitched great going 7 scoreless on 3 hits. Could you imagine back in the day telling someone like Nolan Ryan or Tom Seaver that they were being taken out after 7 with a 3 hit shutout Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted August 14, 2021 Report Share Posted August 14, 2021 So far the Reds are making Matt Moore and his 6.41 era look like Cy Young. He has a no hitter through 4 innings. Reds down 1-0 going to the bottom of the 4th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is just starting because of injury and their manager was hoping for 4 quality innings. Castillo only had given up 1 hit through 4.2 innings but it was a solo homer to Torreys.

IU Scott Posted August 14, 2021 Report Share Posted August 14, 2021 Thank you Joe Girradi for taking out a pitcher who is throwing a no hitter after 6 innings. I just don't understand today's thinking in sports today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted August 14, 2021 Report Share Posted August 14, 2021 Well at least the Reds didn't get no hit. Stephenson hit a homer to leaf off the 8th bit the Reds are down 3-1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted August 14, 2021 Report Share Posted August 14, 2021 Why the hell is Doolittle still on the roster and pitching in close games. Brought him down 3-1 but we have the top of the lineup coming up in the 9th. It doesn't matter now since Doolittle had given up 3 runs in the 8th and only has one out.

Proud2BAHoosier Posted August 15, 2021 Report Share Posted August 15, 2021 Yankees got a much needed win last night, especially after Britton blew it again (hello Field of Dreams gut punch), beating the Chisox 7-5. BTW, the Yankees lead the majors in blown saves when leading in the 8th inning or later! Ugghhh!!! Britton is still struggling as he came in the 10th and promptly loaded the bases after the Yanks had taken a 7-4 lead thanks to homers by Judge and Gallo (both had 2 homers for the game). Chad Green came in the 9th and served up a game tying homer to Jose Abreu. Another quality start for Jameson Taillon and 25 year old Albert Abreu recorded his 1st save in a bases loaded, 1 out 10th inning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted August 15, 2021 Report Share Posted August 15, 2021 I would like to thank the home plate umpire that helped the Reds go up 7-3. Up 4-3 with 1 on and two out and a 2_2 on Barnhart a clear 3rd strike was called a ball. Next pitch was a double and a run scored and then a homer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
