Reds vs. Giants (5/17 - 5/20)

[Mustang]

The Reds are like my golf game.  We all know that they are better than a .500 team, and should contend for the Division title on an annual basis.

But like my golf game, I know I'm a low 90s golfer, yet every time I play I shoot over 100.

Just looked at some stats and saw that Eugenio Suarez has 60 more AB's than Kyle Farmer...and has only 3 more hits to show for it.

So...how about this...Reds bust out the whooping sticks in the series finale.  13 hits, including a couple of homers, as they chase Cueto after four.  Mahle goes 6, gives up 2.  The pen shuts the Giants out the rest of the way, as the Reds win 7-2.

What do you think?

Nah, you're right.  Cueto more likely to pitch a no-no against them.  😁

@MJAlltheWay24 Mahle only goes 2, gives up 7.  Reds down 10-0 before they even bat in the 3rd.  I've got no power...at.all.

That does it for me. Reds lose the series. Someone else is up for the next series.

Talk about going up in flames ...

I might be off the Reds thread starting list for the rest of the year after this debacle of a series.

I'd blame @MJAlltheWay24  😎

If you're winning by 17 runs, are you allowed to swing at 2-0 pithces?

Sure you are.  Same as if the count is 3-1.

3-0...different story.

This thread is a disaster.

@theguru can you just delete this?

I’m thinking the Reds aren’t sad to see the Giants leave town.

Keep the faith, the Rockies will be here on June 11th.

[Voice of Reason]

Does anyone have the courage to start the next series thread?

I went to Thursday's game.  I'm 0-2 for the year and 32 runs have been scored by the visitors... 😱
