Reds vs. Astros Game 2

[redsrbetter]

P-Dub will face Backe today as he will try for a second quality start. But Backe has been a very difficult pitcher for the Reds to score runs on. So lets hope for the best today fellas.

Casey has done pretty well against Backe, but the rest need to work on it.

Why is Aurilia starting?

HE SUCKS!

[redsrbetter]

Yep I really wish that Miley would go with Felo. I even expected it tonight.

[redsrbetter]

DJ has Backe throwing pitches already, awesome doing his job and looking at a full count followed by a foul ball and then a walk

[redsrbetter]

So Griffey is on and Miley says he is batting second for a quick two run lead in the first inning. Could it happen tonight?

[volzok]

Good job by DJ, hopefully we can score here early. I agree with you AD, I really thought FeLo would be playing today. He better play tomorrow.

[redsrbetter]

Griffey with a double!

[volzok]

Just as I say it, DJ scores an early run and Griff is on 2nd. Here we go.

[redsrbetter]

Great baserunning by DJ, who scores after a bobbled ball by Bags

[redsrbetter]

Casey is still hitting the ball very hard, but does not get the hit.

[volzok]

Good call on Casey. That ball might have been gone in GAB. Kearns K He isnt swinging like he was in Florida. Its up to Dunn to get another run for Wilson.

[volzok]

Dunn jammed. Well lets see if Wilson has it tonight.

[volzok]

Solid 1-2-3 inning from Wilson. Onto the 2nd.

[redsrbetter]

Kearns is striking out a lot lately. He is a Ks in Houston. Good hit by Randa!

[volzok]

Randa continues to be on fire. Leadoff double. Another chance to score some early runs. Aurilias chance to make something happen.
