The Good
Mike Leake was outstanding again. Logan Ondrusek had a 1-2-3 top of the ninth.
The Bad
This lineup tonight.
The Ugly
Jay Bruce. What do they call it? The Golden Sombrero?
Not so random thoughts …
When Leake’s been hurt, it’s been the HR that his been his downfall. Tonight, he made a mistake pitchâ€â€to the the pitcher no lessâ€â€and it cost the Reds in a close game where runs were at a premium.
When you are 9th in the NL in RUNS, 9th in HRs, 9th with RISP, are missing 4 starters–and face the team with the best record in the major leagues that is starting a pitcher with a 2.04 ERA–that’s a perfect recipe for defeat.
That’s exactly what happened.
Hard to believe Frankie Rodriguez already has 14 saves.
The good news? Cueto tomorrow.
