    Reds Reds vs. Astros Game 3

    Today we need to get back at these Astros and come out swinging. Hopefully Miley has a good lineup in place because we are facing Oswalt. I am looking for a great game today.

    Milton 1-0, 5.06 @ Oswalt 0-1, 9.00

    Vs. Oswalt

    Players have not done too bad against Oswalt, especially LaRue and DJ. Hopefully they can get something going. BTW Felipe hasn't done so bad either.

    Milton vs. Astros

    http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/player...pitcherId=3783

    Ausmus and Ensberg are the only ones with any luck against Milton. I hope he goes at them today.

    Game starts in a half hour!

    Today's lineup:
    Freel
    Griffey
    Casey
    Randa
    Dunn
    Pena
    LaRue
    Lopez
    Milton

    So Lopez does get the start! And Pena does also, with Kearns needing something even though he did well in the second half of the game last night. We see Randa is batting cleanup as well, could be interesting.

    Interesting lineup today. But I do think that we can score some runs with this lineup. I understand the LRL concept, but I think that Dunn should be batting cleanup. Cant wait to see what happens. We need this game bad and Milton needs to shutdown the Astros and prove why we paid him all that money.

    I like this lineup at this particular time.

    Great start from Freel. Leadoff walk.

    And for the 2nd time this series, the Reds run themselves out of a potential big inning.

    No runs again. Could be another loss already.

    The Reds hit the ball hard but come up with nothing in the first. Here comes Milton!

    I hate the way Pena wears his glove. I always get worried he won't catch the ball, but he comes up with it that time for out number 1.

    Already 1-0 Astros. That could be enough for Oswalt.

    We knew he was going to give up homers when we signed him, but as long as they are solo shots you should get over it
