Cubs/Reds Game Thread

[TarHeelHawk]

Didn't see one on the betting board, so I figured I'd start it.

D-Lee is out of the lineup, and it looks like the wind is blowing out to right-center.

good oppurtunity to jump into 1st today with the phils playing the cardinals. big boost of momentum too going into next week. btw, it's on WGN.

Joey Votto with career homer #12 against the Cubs, 1-0 Reds.

Walking in a run seems silly, but it still counts!

Bradleys scores from first on a 2 out double from Soriano (who is 2-2 today). The ball beat him and the catcher was blocking the plate, but Milton slid around him and slapped the plate with his right hand. Excellent play all around.

Phils up 7-2 in the 7th.

Soriano has looked great in July!!

Score?

2-1 Cubs, top of the 5th. Reds haven't had a baserunner since Votto's homer in the 1st.

Soriano has looked great in July!!

Milton Bradley is starting to look all right, too.

Everyone else in the division is losing right now. Cards are down 9-2 in the 7th, Milwaukee is down 5-0, and the Astros are losing 5-3.

I'm not sure how the Pirates are doing.

 

[CycloneErik]

Could it be 1st place day? It's looking good so far!

Could it be 1st place day? It's looking good so far!

Fox has just missed 2 homers, and Soriano's double to left would have been out on any other day.

Bradley is now 1-1 with 2 walks on the day.

Good time for Jeff Baker to get a big hit..................

[acrozier22]
