IU Scott Posted July 14, 2022 Report Share Posted July 14, 2022 Reds defense is killing them. Yankees had 1st and 3rd and one out and Rizzo hit a routine ground ball to India and went right between his legs that shod have been a DP. Now they just messed up a run down between 2nd and 3rd but didn't have a guy covering second. Score is now 4-2 and the Yankees still batting. Should still be 4-0 and the Reds batting.

IU Scott Posted July 14, 2022 Report Share Posted July 14, 2022 Reds totally handed tonight's game to the Yankees. 4 unearned runs in the 5-run 3rd inning. Up 6-5 in the bottom of the 8th Stanton hit a homerun that went 315 feet and was determined that it wouldn't have been a homer in any other ballpark. Top of 10th the Reds had 1st and 3rd and no outs and don't score. Bottom of the 10th The Yankees had 1st and 2nd and one out and the reds pitcher threw two consecutive wild pitches to score the winning run. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure it's happened before but I don't remember this many managers being fired before All Star Break before. I know my 2 White Sox friends are done with LaRussa...and Ozzie Guillen all but begged for the job on TV the other night. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IUFLA Posted July 14, 2022 Report Share Posted July 14, 2022 Here's a good statement to make re your star player and the owner to keep your job... "The two men deserve each other.

This is an excerpt from a dated article...basically said that only 6% of the teams who make firings midseason (with winning or losing record) actually make the playoffs. And only five teams made the playoffs following that change: the 1988 Boston Red Sox, the 1989 Toronto Blue Jays, the 2003 Florida Marlins, the 2004 Houston Astros and last year’s Rockies. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last night was the 1st game that I was able to watch the majority of. Castillo is so good gonna hate losing him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
