Never thought I'd see the day when Johnny Gomes leads the Majors in walks!!!

His avg is below .200 and his obp is north of .450. Much like last year, there is no way he maintains, but I will take it while he is doing it

Gomes with the RBI walk. I don't know what has happened to his approach since last year but I like it.

 

[vols kick balls]

Edgar with a RBI sac fly. 2-0 early with Bruce coming up.

 

[vols kick balls]

They had Gomes picked off but they threw it away. 3-0 Reds and Gomes is on second.

 

[vols kick balls]

Hitting Saunders pretty good today. 4-0.

Oh, Joey.

 

[vols kick balls]

Bruce just misses his first homer on a hanging slider. He will settle for a RBI Double.

i really hope we are better in the winning category vs. the padres. pitching is starting to scare me a little bit.

*Johnny Cueto will start a rehab assignment at Triple-A Louisville on April 16, assuming his two innings in Goodyear on Monday go without incident.

*Homer Bailey, slated to throw Tuesday in Goodyear, will have a tentative start on April 17 for Louisville assuming all goes well for him as well. More on both guys later on Reds.com.

I am not reading too much into it yet, but Jonny Gomes newfound patience at the plate is paying off for him this year in terms of walks and power numbers thusfar. Keep it up Gomer.

 

[blupotato]

after volquez loaded them up in the first, i thought for sure we were goners early in this one. gomes got lucky and some great defense got us the w against a great starter.

Nick Massett doesn't have it between the ears. Going for his 3rd L on the season.

 

[VOLinthaNATI]

Padres tied it at 2 but Phillips just made a spectacular play to get the 3rd out with a runner on 3rd. A web gem if you will...
