Freel made a great catch to end the top of the second. end of 2 still same score.

This is the lineup I was thinking Narron should go with, I think he should try it out for awhile. The only change I would want to see him make is maybe put Phillips at 2 and Dunn at 3, but Dunn did produce some from the second spot last year.

The only reason Dunn is at 2 and Phillips is at 3 is because Hamilton is at 4 and Narron is all about the Lefty-Righty-Lefty thing.

Dunn has been struggling ever since he missed that game with back problems.

you are right, and unfortunately I think he may need to go on the 15 day to recover.

Josh Hamilton is a freeking man :rock: 3 run blast. 6-1 Reds

Narron can't deny the results he is getting from batting Hamilton cleanup, but he'll still either not play him tomorrow, or bat him 3rd

Arroyo is pitching a pretty good game too.

 

[emainvol]

thank god coffey pitched last night.

 

[vols kick balls]

top of the order to begin the bottom of the seventh

 

[emainvol]

Lidge is pitching. It's time to rock that world.

 

[emainvol]

Dunn will tee off on one.

 

[emainvol]

or a single that works.

 

[emainvol]

oh god, the bullpen is in to blow it.

 

[emainvol]

6-3, and it begins...

 

[emainvol]

And the bullpen blows another lead, somebody wake me up when the Reds sign a serviceable reliever.

 

[vols kick balls]

great outing for the bullpen, oh wait..... never mind they only gave up 7 runs in 1 and 2/3 innings so far.

 

[emainvol]

If there was a bright spot from this game, it was Hamilton's continuing to impress.

I wonder why Dunn does not bat lead off?

that whole lefty righty thing. i think phillips should lead off personally.

Lohse had another good start and that was an awesome game :rock:

the reds are going to have to quit getting only 3 hits a game if they expect to be a contender.

id rather have three hits and win than score six runs and lose by two.
