July 3, 20215 yr Author Alzolay vs Mahle today. Two young, up and coming pitchers. Interesting matchup.
July 3, 20215 yr Author 2-2 in the 7th, Reds hitting. Reds bullpen got out of a 1st and 3rd no out jam in the top of the 7th. Votto walk, Stephenson double has runners at 2nd and 3rd, no outs.
July 3, 20215 yr Author Suarez single to right drives in Votto. Reds lead 3-2 after 7. As bad as Suarez' batting average is, he still is 2nd on the Reds in HR and a close 4th in RBI, just 2 RBI behind Winker and Naquin.
July 3, 20215 yr Author Reds win! Bullpen gets it done. Hembree with the save. Reds move into 2nd place in the division. I love beating the Cubs.
July 3, 20215 yr Author Excellent pitching matchup tomorrow. Hendricks vs. Miley We may not see a 91 mph pitch in tomorrow's game till the 7th inning.
July 3, 20215 yr 2 big wins!!! Bullpen has been great these 2 games, looks like Hembree is the closer for now!!! Moved past the Cubbies in the standings today, let’s sweep’em!!
July 4, 20215 yr Two "earned" wins for the Reds, and pretty good quality MLB exhibited so far this series. Home plate umpire seemed inconsistent, and downright unfair to both teams in key situations in the Saturday game. Was happy to hear Chris Welsch take up for Doolittle on the play at first base. Votto absolutely failed to lead or give him a good toss. "Lark" was way off base not faulting Joey. Welsh stepped right in and righted that ship. We need either he or Brantley on every broadcast. Lark and Sadek are in never-never land.
July 4, 20215 yr Did I hear right that the bullpen went like 10 innings this series and didn't give up a run? Has much as we've hated on them, gotta give them some credit. Cubs have lost 9 in a row now.
