Bright End of Nowhere
July 6, 2009
I haven’t had a chance to check the final score of tonight’s game. Did I miss anything?
After the not-so-successful “big” series against the Cardinals I bet the Reds were anxious to take the field and start the road trip off on a positive note.
The first game was the most intriguing of the series with Cole Hamels and Johnny Cueto taking the mound. Lots of strikeouts, not too many hits — a low-scoring game, I’m sure. I love a good ol’ fashioned pitcher’s duel.
Let me stroll on over to ESPN.com and see how the Reds did…

According to Marty & Jeff on WLW, this was the largest margin of defeat in the ENTIRE history of the Reds orginization.
Goggles, may I suggest you go offline again for a while
Crikey, we had one of our infielders pitch to close out the game.
Sweet!

Largest margin of defeat ever for the Reds? Big deal! It’s not like the Reds have been around a long time.
Just how bad was it? I was giving my wife verbal updates of the game and when I told her that Paul Janish was pitching, her response was, “Again?!”
Exactly.
After the first 2 runs in the first inning, I looked around at my family and said, “Well this one’s over they’ll never score more than 2 runs on Hamels.” I hate being right all the time.
This is what happens when you tell this group of guys “this series is important.” I knew it was going to be bad when I saw the line-up and everybody’s favorite lead-off hitter was back in the saddle, I just didn’t think it was going to be THAT bad.
as my wife says ” they should have taken him out 2 homers ago
LOL Jose Ole
