IU Scott Posted May 6, 2019 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 See the Reds found anther way to lose a game. They scored 4 runs on 5 its and 3 home runs in the first inning but only go tone hit the rest of the game. Also Castilleo had a no hitter for 5.1 innings but gave up 4 runs in the sixth inning.

Zlinedavid Posted May 6, 2019 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 3 home runs on 3 consecutive pitches, each homer being the player's 9th of the season. Have at it, numerologists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeking6 Posted May 6, 2019 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 Nice to sweep a rival but baseball has a strange way of humbling you very quickly. Don't want to get ahead of ourselves but after Cubs start of 3-8 to go 16-4 mostly against good teams like Cardinals, Dodgers, Dbacks, Mariners, etc...is really, really impressive. Especially considering Bryant and Rizzo have had relatively slow starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most MLB players can drive that one. Oh it was an awful pitch. I think he missed Yadi’s target by a foot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted May 6, 2019 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 In the 4 game series against SF the Reds out scored them 37-24/ Going no the series these two teams were last in hitting and they had 2 of the top 3 era in baseball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A couple of things: Senzel's presence totally changes the Reds lineup. There's a different attitude. They were playing at GAPB, which they have not been doing much of lately. Be interesting to see if it carries forward on the Bay area road trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Morrow won't be back before the all star break, if at all this season. I'm not panicking yet, but wonder if it's time to give Kimbrel a call.

Billingsley99 Posted May 7, 2019 Report Share Posted May 7, 2019 Just saw where for the only the 2nd time ever a player hit a HR, stole a base and pitched a scoreless inning in a MLB game. Sandoval for the Giants accomplished that yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw this a few years ago, and given his nickname and his body shape, I still laugh whenever I see him play. 'Oval Panda Slob' is an anagram of Pablo Sandoval.

And, I am skeptical of the record books on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
