8/19 Reds vs Pirates- Milton, be a hero

[missionhockey21]

Little bit late, but let's go guys.

[missionhockey21]

Aurilia rips a double off the wall to score two to make 4-0, then Ross rips another double to score him. 5-0 Reds in the bottom of the first so far and Maholm has been rocked as of late.

[missionhockey21]

Phillips loops a liner over the 2B and into rightfield as Ross heads home. 6-0 Reds with only one out.

[missionhockey21]

A pass ball scored on Ronnie Paulino with Phillips going to 2nd.

[missionhockey21]

And Eric Milton singles! Phillips holds at 3rd. One time around and let's go for two.

[missionhockey21]

Freel slaps the ball to the leftside and the Pirates turn it for two to finally end the inning.

Chalk it up to a struggling young Pirate pitcher, a determined team after two hard losses but no matter how you see it, let's hope we ride this momentum for the rest of the game.

Nady, the man of the hour in Pittsburgh at least, slaps it to Clayton who fields it cleanly and fires it to first for the first out.

[missionhockey21]

Paulino scorches it off Milton's glove but a charging Clayton comes in and fires a strike to complete the 1-6-3 out.

JD mentioned that Wilson is shut down for the season. He has to be done for with his career given his injury history.

Hernandez singles into CF.

Castillo rips a double into LF, and luckily Dunn made a nice play by catching the ball that bounces off the wall with being on the run for it and throwing it to the cutoff man to hold the runner.

Thanks. Although I do enjoy my own company.

Maholm takes three goofy swings and sites down for the third out.

[McKain]

I don't have this game on FSN Pittsburgh for some reason.

Oh well. Sounds like I'm not missing much of a fun game, blowout and all.

[missionhockey21]

Yeah, it's not exciting baseball unless you are a depressed Reds fan.

Clayton struckout (ideal #2 hitter guys.) Griffey singles it looks like and then my media center on my PC totally frozed. If I can't get it working where the audio doesn't sound like everyone has a speech impediment I won't be able to hang out for the game.

[missionhockey21]

Freel just made another amazing diving catch on Wilson. I have serious man love for Ryan, no lie.

Sanchez with a two out single.
(my PC is still acting awful)
