Game 2: DBacks @ Reds (Payback Time)

[redsrbetter]

Arroyo Ks. 1-2-3 against 7-8-9, but I thought that was the best inning so far by our hitters. Good patience and waiting for their pitch. If they all can build off that in this second time around the order, they may get something going.

[redsrbetter]

Arroyo Ks Snyder. Good battle though as he was laying off all the breaking stuff as well. Arroyo just got a few over for strikes. Keep it up Bronson

[redsrbetter]

Arroyo gets Reynolds on a nice sinker there. There we go!

[redsrbetter]

Drew tries to go deep again off the first pitch, and he gets too far under it and its an easy out for Junior. 1-2-3

[redsrbetter]

Beauty strikes the Reds! Patterson lays off a nice splittter and follows it up with a HR to RF off the breaking ball!

2-1 DBacks

[redsrbetter]

Keppinger walks and lays off the sinking stuff. Looking great now Reds! Look for your pitch now Junior

[redsrbetter]

Keppinger gets a SB! Here we go...

[redsrbetter]

Griffey has a full count and is fouling off pitches...

He strikes out on that splitter in the dirt.

So Haren loves that splitter with the count full.

[redsrbetter]

BP gets something up in the zone and CRUSHES IT OVER THE LF WALL!

3-2 Reds! First lead of the season. Beautiful!

[redsrbetter]

Dunner just missed his pitch there and pops it up to 3rd.

He has had the best approach tonight. He is completely laying off that splitter.

[redsrbetter]

EdE has a full count and is fouling them off...

Here comes the splitter...Nope, fastball that time and he fouls it off...Another fastball fouled off...

Beautiful breaking pitch froze EdE for a called strike 3.

[redsrbetter]

You've gotta love the Cowboy's call on that BP HR.

"Chest high, good bye!"

[redsrbetter]

Arroyo gets his 5th K! 3 of the last 4 batters have been fanned. Upton takes a seat. Maybe I should drop him from my fantasy team.

[redsrbetter]

Haren rips a double on a full count hanging breaking pitch on the inside corner. Arroyo loves that pitch with the full count because he can get it over for a strike sometimes.

[Doppelgänger]

YEAHHHH BP! Wish Griffey could have at least put the ball in play infront of him though. At least it didn't cost us.
