I expect more games like this in the future. Do you know what excites me most about last night's offensive output? SF - A Dunn , S Hatteberg , R Freel , J Keppinger....count 'em, four Sac Flys. That means there were four occasions in which the Reds drove in runners from third with less than two outs. There are few things worse than leaving a runner there when you don't even need a hit to score him.
Josh Fogg pitched ok. He gave up 3 runs in 5 innings. Two of those were scored on a rare error by Brandon Phillips. My only real complaint is that he only went 5 innings. We're relying on the pen too much. I'd like to see the starters go deeper into games. However, it isn't really Fogg's fault last night. Dusty pulled him for a pinch hitter to try and turn a good inning into a soul-crushing inning.
Any coincidence that this offensive outburst happens when Edwin Encarnacion is on the bench?
Can we please stop sending Todd Coffey out to the mound? He's a crooked number waiting to happen everytime he sprints out there. Why does he sprint out there?
