[ramfandan]

Watching the Reds feed. The announcers said Reds have not scored on Fernandez this year ? if I heard them right.

[scoutyjones2]

Oh boy...de la cruz wants to atone

[12xu]

Don't throw Elly any meatballs please...........

[slimjay63801]

Wow...

Nothing like a battle of futility.

futility players are a strength of this team (Hampson, Prieto, Saggese, Fermin)

Saggese gets part of a season but Walker gets 3 years? Church gets 20 games but Walker gets 3 years? Perspective please?

Those players are all utility players. We have a lot of them. There is not such thing a a futility player. Lighten up.

How would you know that, at what point do you know what player is who you state that they are? Do tell?

[cardstatman]

Fernandez comes through.

Now 1 hit allowed in his past 7 appearances.

[cbcardsfan]

Well good job

[12xu]

Fernandez comes thru!

Whether Fermin ran on his own or got a call from the coaches, what's the point of stealing 3rd there when you have 2 outs .

If 0 or 1 out , then a long fly ball scores the run but there were 2 outs so the only advantage is if there is a wild pitch or pass ball so not worth the risk of trying to get to 3rd .

There was only one out. I have np with trying to steal 3rd, but I just can't fathom how bad they are at executing. They have to have been picked off at least 50 times this year, if not more.

Stolen Bases (SB) 2025 season -- 77
Caught Stealing (CS) -- 19
Total Attempts (SB + CS) -- 96

Holy (bleep)! Turdnandez gets it done

[82birds]

not de la Cruz's night !

Winner, despite Oli

[ramfandan]

Ellie up .. the hero OR the goat tonight !


Cardinals just too good for the Reds.

Those who think the Cardinals made mistakes tonight, the Reds errors cost them 3 unearned runs.
Barry Larkin, analyst, said too many mistakes to win these games. tough loss for Reds

[Lightning Rod]

Chip, "short bullpen". Why do we always have a short bullpen, even after a day off? Please stop with that ****, I am sick of hearing it.

[blackinkbiz]

Would take an 8-1 or 12-2 stretch for me to start giving a sheep but that game was at least entertaining enough that I watched nearly all of it.

All teams should make their stadiums more geared towards offense or hitter-friendly like Cincy, Philly, NYY, etc. It would likely be very good for the sport.

Also not sure Elle deserved the error on that throw in the 10th. It was a tough play and he threw it on target; 1st bman couldn't scoop it out.

not de la Cruz's night !

Winner, despite Oli

Flipped back and forth after the Fermin boner!
Smelly De La Cruz is a mental midget with obvious physical talent.
Always love beating the Reds in their Little League Ballpark!
They are now 3-10 in extra innings.
Good win despite some questionable stuff!

Do the caught stealing include pickoffs?
