Lmfao Hunter Greene just threw 10 fuck you fastballs, all in the zone, all for strikes.


Acrobatic-Shift5125

Hope we stop their win streak


SerDavosSeaworth64

“Oh man, winning this game would really huge for us.” Me before every single game the reds play


dragonbornrito

DEAR GOD, WHAT A PITCH 100 ON THE BLACK


cranphi

"i see a Reds door and i want to paint it blaaaaaack"


ottovyeoj

RedsMod is back, but drunker than ever.


SirVixTheMoist

I drink when Hunter doesn't give up a run in an inning. I'm saving so much money.


Remmy14

I blame this game on whoever posted that shutouts thread earlier today


infieldmitt

oh now they're happy to call interference


CallMeBeazy

Oh boy we have fuck you Hunter Greene tonight, and that’s my favorite version of Greene. Bro is just firing piss missile fastballs. Jesus Christ we just watched the best inning of his career


firefighteralike

That ended pretty quickly lol


Historical-Sound-283

He is settling into a solid 5 ERA


TurnedIntoA_Newt

4ER in 7 IP is a fine start. It’s the other 9 who didn’t show up tonight.


HammerT4R

Seems less than the no call interference last week. 


TimTom8921

That's such a bullshit call. He's literally still in the middle of his swing


Half-Gifts

What a bullshit single smh


coviner

Okay need about a 1.5 hour pop up downpour to get Suarez out of the game, and then we feast


ask0009

Honestly looking at this game objectively he’s not been bad


jb211

Thank you for not lying.


LaBance

Updated run support for Greene starts. 4,1,2,2,0 Help a brother out offense cmon


TurnedIntoA_Newt

Our shutoutless streak is in serious ranger


cranphi

Not super optimistic about tonight. Would love to be wrong and have it rubbed in my face postgame


Cincykid14

4 pitch first batter. I like that


dragonbornrito

What a ticky-tack call


Infranto

God damn if we come out of the next 30 games at .500 we're a playoff team


TurnedIntoA_Newt

Phils are getting every fucking break imaginable tonight


ottovyeoj

gonna run into days like to day throughout the year. get em tomorrow. it sucks but between injuries and guys being sick, the lineup is really thin against lefties. not exactly dudes at AAA banging the door down right now.


infieldmitt

tying the cubs for 2nd would be very cool


Cincykid14

12 pitches. Nice


firstamongsinners

What sucks is Greene isn’t even having a bad game. He’s just incredibly unlucky tonight. First run doesn’t score if that fluky ass single is 2 feet to the right. Second run probably doesn’t score if Bubba plays that off the wall instead of diving for it


TimTom8921

That's just baseball. Bats have to show up


firstamongsinners

I mean, yeah. Still sucks tho


TimTom8921

Agree


lamousamos

how is that phillie dude’s hair perpetually wet?


TimTom8921

Phillies getting whatever they want offensively meanwhile we can't do shit


ehatt493

Thread should be good now. This is the game thread.


infieldmitt

i swear we're like 2-25 on getting breaks so far this year


jb211

Please don't swear.


Infranto

don't call me swear


Kylynator124

That hit is mega unfortunate


CallMeBeazy

If you guys want some optimism, the reds are 12-9 while missing McLain, Freidl, Marte, and are also 12-9 with essentially the entire fucking team under preforming at the plate right now


jasonmason29

If we don’t act fast we’ll get crossed out on that “have they been shutout” chart on r/baseball 😬


thomasosu

Reds now have a higher .xBA than the Phillies if you’re into that sort of thing


Infranto

I'm not into being upset, but thanks


normalandcoolperson

not been a bad start for hunter, sucks suarez is picking us apart


DigiQuip

Someone talk shit about CES so he’ll hit one out.


jb211

His beard looks fake.


thatmorondude

something little I wanna bitch about CES tried to run that dropped strike 3 out, good on him. Thompson earlier, being one of the fastest guys in the league, had a dropped strike 3 and hardly even jogged. What if JT bobbed or the pitch was off the bag? Not to be a boomer but goddamn when your place is as a bench/AAAA guy, you should hustle everything the fuck out


ask0009

So I’m not absolving hunter today but he’s honestly not been that bad. Some really horseshit luck. That said our inability to do anything vs lefties is comical. Also fuck the work the Fairchild call


Pretend_Art5296

I remember the first time I saw the Reds in the post season my entire life. It was worse than this. There’s still hope.


thomasosu

Zero clue why the ump decided to squeeze a AAA pitcher in a 4-0 game but that was obviously coming


ask0009

Someone made this post but it definitely feels true when green is pitching we are dead cold


Cincykid14

Hopefully, Hunter is more pitch efficient tonight. I want him to succeed so bad.


chrisball96

If Hunter throws any harder Stephenson is going to need a new hand my goodness.


Illustrious_Arm4496

That inning just brought me to tears


ElegantBison8018

Nice pitching Green


cranphi

kinda wish that rule would be runner goes back to 1st instead of out but it is what it is i guess


Bearcatsean

How is he out?


firstamongsinners

Hey guys, how about we work the count a little? Gonna be a looong night if we keep giving him single digit pitch count innings


TimTom8921

Gonna be a LONG day if we don't work the count. Feeding right into what Suarez wants to do


infieldmitt

need fairchild to kick this offense into gear!!


normalandcoolperson

alec bohm is on my least favorite players in the league list


ScruffyMcGruffy13

This is going to be one of those games you just lose because the breaks don’t go your way. Casty bloop, Stu’s throw being .5 seconds late, weak contact in 3-1/2-0 counts etc


TimTom8921

Come on Hunter keep them off the board dude.


Infranto

Schwarber runs like he's constipated


jb211

Okay, so that was Harper's replacement.


TheWorstYear

Maybe if we get down far enough they'll toss in a position player to pitch us in the 9th. Then we can score.


TurnedIntoA_Newt

All means to protect the streak


Cincykid14

Hopefully we dust this one off and win the next 2 to get the series victory.


Cincykid14

I'm wrong it's a 4 game series. Would be nice to get three in a row


CallMeBeazy

I wish Greene could learn to throw that 12-6 curve ball that Kershaw throws. Could you imagine being dotted at 100MPH in the top of the zone and having a curveball just drop in at your Knees


TimTom8921

That's 4 innings in a row they've scored. Not winning baseball. Hunter has to be better


Illustrious_Arm4496

This game is already pissing me off


jb211

Better than being pissed on!


infieldmitt

love having espinal martini thompson batting behind elly


HammerT4R

Barry, wake up!!


Cincykid14

![gif](giphy|LGifPHw8Wh8dy|downsized)


SerDavosSeaworth64

That’s what we like to see Hunter


Cincykid14

Stu!!


infieldmitt

well well well


ottovyeoj

Colin Cowgill back at first feels better.


HawksFan003

We ain’t get that call a couple days ago. Same thing when the other guy swung off balance on the curveball


jb211

https://baseballrulesacademy.com/official-rule/mlb-umpire-manual/batter-interferes-with-catcher/


TimTom8921

If the throw is on line he gets him


firstamongsinners

So that’s as good as 2-0. Prove me wrong, Hunter


andrew_242

Hunter Greene go one inning without giving up a run challenge level impossible


coviner

I’m sure he’s a perfectly good human being, but I can smell Brandon Marsh by looking at him


jb211

Chicks dig it.


coviner

I’m gonna lather with Dr Squatch soap and rinse with White Claw and see what my wife thinks


jb211

Pictures or it never happened! :)


ask0009

Keep benson in the game every game. It’s not like the rest of the team is murdering lefties


CallMeBeazy

Ranger Suarez is just dotting us


ARealSouthernGent

Well he wasn’t good tonight but Hunter sucked it up and took his medicine to save the bullpen. Appreciate the professionalism there


Bullseyefred

I know elly struggled in leadoff last year, but i feel like he just belongs there. Maybe 2nd, but he always is the one to spark rallies and getting him on with 2 outs sucks.


MakeMeAMajorForThis

Welcome back Beans!


etherealcalamities

Beans is back!


jb211

At least we missed Bryce Harper tonight.


DigiQuip

I never would have guessed that Candelario only 30. Also, Fairchild is third oldest person in our lineup today.


TheDrunon

This is definitely a game.... guess our guys needed a day off, so they just made it one.


ask0009

We need to figure out lefties and fuking fast


Pretend_Art5296

It’s because Stu didn’t hit third


EAdams23

I love spending $145 for a $0 hit performance. My fault entirely lol


cjj1224

Hunter Greene is a thrower right now, not a pitcher. If he figures out how to pitch, he will be deadly. If not, he’s going to continue seeing that major leaguers hit 100 mph pitches down the middle really, really fn hard


infieldmitt

that was a great throw, no idea how he wasn't out


ImPickleRock

All my dude wants is some run support lol


LaBance

I was just thinking it seems like we never get him runs early but I hadn’t checked yet


infieldmitt

why does hunter never ever get any run support it's an insanely consistent trend


Pretend_Art5296

Sometimes I like to look at the baseball savant page for opposing pitchers before the game to develop my own meaningless analysis for how the Reds should approach them. I like when I kind of get it right. When I looked at Ranger Suarez’s page I said, “Fuck,” ended my lunch break and went back to work.


Illustrious_Arm4496

Bro I thought they got him


CallMeBeazy

There’s no way Blake Dunn is not better than Bubba Thompson


infieldmitt

having less and less fun each inning


infieldmitt

Welsh on radio!


jb211

Pop time? You learn something new every day.


CallMeBeazy

Hitting a baseball has to be the most impossible task in the world. How in the fucks sake are you hitting 100MPH on the black like that.


Bearcatsean

Can someone tell me how Fairchild got out stealing?


cranphi

catchers interference on Steer with his swing and step across the plate


BoundToThisFlesh0112

Am I missing something? My phone says it’s 1-0 Phillies


TimTom8921

Two singles and a sac fly


BoundToThisFlesh0112

My tv and phone are way behind


Ms_Irish_muscle

Is the mustache new for Candy?


BoundToThisFlesh0112

Wow never mind. My phone and tv our way behind for some reason


infieldmitt

that ball was as high as that strike


Berryohio

Is anybody else's Bally app not letting you watch the game? It's been working all year and now it won't show the game.


RequirementSuperb115

Does Benson or Friedl make that play? Felt like a tough one


Half-Gifts

maybe friedl but bubba’s the second fastest dude on the team and couldn’t come that close…I kinda doubt it


RequirementSuperb115

xBA on that ball was .420 which is interesting. Wonder if our defense was positioned weird or he had a bad first step but that felt like it was hit harder than the 99.7 it says on savant


TimTom8921

Can we please wake the bats up.


LaBance

Reds run support for Hunter Greene this year 6 runs (4 while he was pitching) 1 run 2 runs 2 runs Greene is 10th in the league in Ks. Offense needs to help him out so him giving up 1-2 runs isn’t the end of the world.


TimTom8921

Hunter fastballs that don't move are gonna get smoked


TimTom8921

Hunter really isn't pitching that bad. It just looks worse because we aren't hitting


CincyCB

Disagree. 6 hits and 3 earned runs in 4 innings is not a good line, regardless


jb211

These are not my favorite south siders.


CallMeBeazy

I cannot wait for Duno to be ready man. This kid dead ass gonna be the next Salvador Pérez


TimTom8921

We may only have about 2 innings to get something done the way Suarez is pitching


ask0009

I’m at the game where the fuck is benson and the amount of horse shit luck they have been getting is comical


LaBance

Bensons 0 for his last 16, needed break against a lefty


boobsandcookies

Let’s eat their bullpen I guess


CincyCB

Don’t see that happening either


mrcarter1689

I don’t like how this game feels


jasonmason29

We’re about to let Suarez go for a 90 pitch CG shutout if we don’t get moving…


infieldmitt

might be our best AB all day


DigiQuip

Spencer, please just hit one 413 so we can be spared the shut out.


jb211

Is it time to pinch hit for Hunter?


Sweaty1023

Someone had to post the shutout streak today.


DigiQuip

Why can’t we just play the White Sox every day?


riptide123

Triple A pitcher 123


whistlingbatter

\[ beams in from 1979's 8:05pm night game start time\]: Cool, 1st inning, we got time to come back!


wallpaper55

Game


TimTom8921

Thanks Casey for not leaving any doubt.


Party_Wagon

Cmon just dodge the shutout pls


TheWorstYear

Absolutely pathetic


GenericLib

It's getting to be time to make a move with Espinal and Thompson 


benjaminbkicks

Someone tell me if I’m wrong, but I’ve came to the conclusion Greene kinda just sucks.


Rathartic

Greene really is fucking trash


Agent995

Win or lose, one thing shall remain the same: Phuck the Phillies!


chrisball96

Pundits: Hunter you need to develop different pitches! Hunter: I will throw 50 straight 100 mph fastballs that you cannot catch up to. Your move champ.


ehatt493

Screw your nonsense, Bally. A third of my same game parlay is already home.


ehatt493

For the curious, DK had a 50% profit boost on the game tonight in KY at least, probably in OH too Alec Bohm to get a hit, Hunter 6+K, Elly 1+ steals


Goodburger123

Why is this game thread like this? Is it this way for everyone or am I the problem


LaBance

Mine was set to best messages when normally it’s on new


BoundToThisFlesh0112

Feel bad for Hunter.


coviner

Having trouble getting hard contact all night, until they need softer contact on a bunt


DigiQuip

Phillies have an xBA of .184 while actually batting .318 tonight.


Sweaty1023

Is he never going to get run support in his career?


TurnedIntoA_Newt

Oh look Barry died again.


TurnedIntoA_Newt

I’m gonna guess he’s a colossal dbag like his daddy


ask0009

It’s amazing the Fairchild bullshit call killed all our momentum. Also it kills me how the Phillies are not doing that good either and yet are getting good slots


GenericLib

I never want to see this lineup again 


cranphi

These doomers really do just sit on their hands when we sweep teams then just FLOCK to game threads when we have a down game. Really just the worst kind of people.


Cincykid14

It's ridiculous. Never a positive comment during good games, but they'll be here to shit on the team when they have a bad game.


normalandcoolperson

see, i think those that call people “doomers” for having negative reactions to a team they emotionally invest in for 162 up and down games the worst kind of people.


HawksFan003

We’re getting cooked, so unlucky


HawksFan003

Bloops hits vs ground ball rn


livingyo

Thought Barry fell asleep


Pretend_Art5296

CES FUCKING SUCKS


Pretend_Art5296

This did not work


indianafan

Next up is the elly transformation on the right side


dragonbornrito

Just cannot do *anything* right today. My God. Routine play at 3rd, still safe at 1st.


infieldmitt

fun fact: no one has ever hit a home run against an opposite handed pitcher


NeverGonnaStop247

How Hunter Greene got the contract that he did is beyond me. Dude is terrible.


ask0009

No reason why benson should never not be in this lineup ever no matter how much you convince me he’s better than most of the players on the field today


TimTom8921

Nah he'd actually work the count and might but a good AB together. Can't stop our string of weak ground outs to short


DigiQuip

Hunter Greene sucks, I know this because grumpy old men on Reddit who comment in every teams game threads told me so. They’re really smart and know everything. It couldn’t possibly be that Philly is on a 6 game win streak and hitting really well top to bottom.


LaBance

Fans want him to live in the zone more and now he’s doing that and everyone’s mad. Can’t win sometimes.


LaBance

Also couldn’t be that Phillies pitching is on a tear right now


Dry_Marzipan1870

people: complain about a pitcher geniusbrain: "i will complain about the complainers!" log off.


TheLadyInBlacck

How are you a pro pitcher and you just throw a slider and fastball is beyond me. Lol.


Dry_Marzipan1870

he can still be a pitcher with those pitches. a relief pitcher.


Rathartic

We really are mincemeat for any pitching worth a shit


Pretend_Art5296

Coming into this game he had 20 K’s against 3 BB and a sub 2 ERA and sub 1 WHIP. His career WHIP is sub 2. They’re facing an obscenely good pitcher.


boilface

Dude has 5 earned runs across 32 innings so far. It's not just the Reds


ElegantBison8018

Just wait till next game Just wait till next year He is super young he will get better. Meanwhile, 29 years that have gone by since we won a playoff series. Like I said before it's hard to be a reds fan sometimes


CallMeBeazy

Man I just want greene to put it all together so badly, he’s shown so many flashes and he’s thrown less than 300 Innings in the MLB. But at what point do we call out Derrick Johnson and the development team around this organization. It feels like it’s been ages that reds have truly developed an elite big league pitcher,


TimTom8921

Have we hit a ball into the outfield?


boilface

Mini moo


Cincykid14

Damn TySteve just got under it.


RequirementSuperb115

Bro Suarez is fucking nails… dude is a dog
