April 9, 201511 yr I believe it took Hamilton's 4th stolen base attempt this season before there was even a throw from the catcher. He is so much fun to watch. For sure. Nice to see him reach base 4 times last night. Opens up so many things for the guys at the plate.
April 9, 201511 yr They need Badenhop to get going. That outing sure wasn't good for his confidence after a rough spring training.
April 9, 201511 yr Hoping the weather is reasonable today. My son will be 4 on Sunday and he and I are going to his first baseball game today for his birthday. Make sure that you stop by Fan Accommodations. They will print you a free certificate for your son's first game.
April 9, 201511 yr I made it to 1:15 and called it quits. Votto is the man, I passed out about 12:45. Woke up right after the game and saw the score on the TV and was very happy. Let's get one more today with no more rain haha!
April 9, 201511 yr Make sure that you stop by Fan Accommodations. They will print you a free certificate for your son's first game. My wife mentioned that to me, too. (She's working so this is a guys trip!). Where is Fan Accommodations located? I'll likely be coming in the front/main gate.
April 9, 201511 yr I didn't want to post this before the game last night, but Leake hasn't lost to the Pirates since some time in 2012.

Turn left when you walk into the main gate. You'll walk past elevators on your left, then another gate, then it will be right there on your left. I can't remember the stand next to it because it changed. But if you turn and look at the field, you'll see home plate from there. Not far out of your way. Or, if you're going upstairs. Go up the escalator and there will be one right in front of you. If anything, just ask someone right when you walk in and they'll point you in the right direction.

April 9, 201511 yr Nobody is getting the day off after a late night: Hamilton Votto Frazier Mesoraco Bruce Byrd Phillips Cozard DeSclafani
April 9, 201511 yr Good. No off days against the division rivals. This team really needs to get off to a good start
April 9, 201511 yr Leake was bad on the pitching side. Walks will haunt. He doesn't have the "stuff" to walk people. I'm sure he will improve. Huge # of Ks for the offense last night. Maybe that is just who they are. Hamilton getting on base is important to alot of other factors with this team. Need disruption. Votto will see better pitches. Hoover -- so far, so good.
April 9, 201511 yr Walks will haunt was on very clear display last night. Three of the four runners who scored for the Pirates last night got on base with a lead off walk. In the Reds winning rally ... Cozart HBP, Hamilton walk then the Votto hit. if you want to teach your young pitchers the problem with walks, last night's game is a great example
