I agree with you. I'd like to see the whole team be a little more aggresive, especially in hitters counts

harang beans another one. His control is on tonight, yet he plunks two batters. Odd.

**bipster** · 05-20-2005 07:33 PM

and plenty of hit batsmen...Harang hits Belliard. That's OK though, he isn't afraid to take that inner half of the plate

Boone K's on a good inside fastball, 2 down

**bipster** · 05-20-2005 07:35 PM

Belliard steals 2nd

Peralta grounds out to Randa. The Injuns aren't getting very good swings at Harang so far tonight.

Yep, that's key. Harang is about the only Reds pitcher (starter wise) who does that, and effectively at that. Sure he'll hit a few because I imagine at 6'7 or whatever you can lose your control from time to time but you gotta love the aggressive effort.

Dunn K's

King Joe singles to CF

**redsrbetter** · 05-20-2005 07:43 PM

Nice hit Randa, Lets go Kearns!

**redsrbetter** · 05-20-2005 07:43 PM

Kearns Birthday today. He turns 25 today. Lets have a good Birthday Ears!

Kearns K's....all three K's were looking at a pitch on the inside corner.

How about a little adjustment to the umpires calls fellas?

**missionhockey21** · 05-20-2005 07:47 PM

Gotta feel for Kearns. Imagine where he could of been today if he was never derailed by injuries. It doesnt seem like too long ago he was coming up as the hot young prospect. I am not saying he is old or anything, just thinking of what could of been accomplished at a young age if the injury bug never hit.

Harang K's Millwood
