Reds at A's 6/19/2007 Homer Bailey Time!

[captainmorgan07]

nice job by the reds offense so far giving homer some run support early

[redsrbetter]

Hatteberg walks, ball gets past the catcher and Gonzo with heads up base running was already to 2B as he was going on the full count. So runners on the corners now with 2 outs.

BP grounds out to SS. 3 outs.

Nice effort there. Some things to point out though would be that BP and EdE are swinging at pitches out of the zone very early in the count. They need to be more patient and wait for a pitch to hit.

3-0 Reds. Here comes Homer

[redsrbetter]

Bailey Ks Chavez on 3 fastballs. None over 92 MPH. Nice

[redsrbetter]

Bailey's changeup looks good early tonight. He is throwing it for strikes.

[redsrbetter]

BP with a real nice ranging backhand stab and fall away throw for the out. 2 away

Good defense

[redsrbetter]

4 pitch walk to Ellis. Pitches were pretty close though. Nothing to worry about here. Lets get Johnson and call it an inning.

[redsrbetter]

Phillips with a ridiculous range there! WOW! He gets a ball that is basically just by the first baseman and he makes the throw for the final out! Amazing!

[redsrbetter]

Stepping out for a bit guys.

[redsrbetter]

Griffey homered to make it 4-0!

Dunn and conine are out and I didn't see how.

Then EdE swings at ball four and grounds out back to the pitcher. UGH

[missionhockey21]

Griffey is well on his pace to a 40 homerun season.

[redsrbetter]

Bailey walks Crosby. He looks like he was trying to be too fine there.

[redsrbetter]

Whats up mission?

Yep Griffey is simply raking this year. He reminds me of the Griffey I always loved.

[redsrbetter]

Suzuki flies out deep to CF. 1 out. That was hit pretty hard. Come on Homer.

[redsrbetter]

GIDP! Another great leather showing by BP! Amazing!
