MJAlltheWay24 Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Reds started a four game series with the Marlins last night and began it with a W, winning it 6-3. Freddy Galvis seems to be proving that he was a solid addition to the team. He hit a 3-run homer and had 4 RBIs total. Suarez hit his 36th homer of the season, which I believe is a career best, and he still has basically 5 weeks of the season left. Ervin also clubbed a 2-run homer. Sonny Gray with another pretty decent performance, minus the five walks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJAlltheWay24 Posted August 28, 2019 Author Share Posted August 28, 2019 Iglesias has set a record for most hits with a 0-2 count, 24 times. They didn't start keeping the stat until 1988. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really been unreal on that, should just go to the plate and say I’ll go ahead start with an 0-2 count!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnottieDrippen Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Whew, ANOTHER 26 pitch first inning, love him but he’s got to learn to challenge more! Smokescreen for the later innings. Last I checked he had struck out 2.3 consecutive innings worth of Marlins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJAlltheWay24 Posted August 28, 2019 Author Share Posted August 28, 2019 Reds win last night 8-5. Suarez with another HR, which is three games in a row now. Senzel has apparently changed his hitting stance, which has helped him over the last couple games after an extensive drought. Casali with a nice night last night too.

CincySportsFan Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Whew, ANOTHER 26 pitch first inning, love him but he’s got to learn to challenge more! I agree, not throwing strikes led to the two runs. I've said it before on here, a patient hitter can make Castillo look wild, due to the number of change-ups he throws that end up out of the strike zone. I don't think it's a matter of "stuff". I think maybe there needs to be a different approach to batters the first time through the lineup for him. Whether that's on him, Tucker/Casali, the pitching coach...I don't know who's ultimately calling the pitches for him...but, they need to recognize when batters are taking those change-ups and not swinging at them.

MJAlltheWay24 Posted August 29, 2019 Author Share Posted August 29, 2019 Aquino has 41 Homers on the season in 425 attempts, which is a homer every 9.1 at bats. Barry Bonds averaged one in every 11 at bats in 2001. Per @redsfan_Brandon on Twitter. I know it's not the same but still a cool stat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
