9/17 - Reds (Arroyo) @ Cubs (Hill) 7:05 CSN

[Irrelevant Dude]

Soriano has absolutely no baseball intelligence.

[TMan92]

The REDS are playing this game under protest? What a joke.

Yeah, that's just a prick move.

 

They just love playing us to pull us out of the playoffs. Nice job Soriano. What a freaking dolt.

[inari]

Another boneheaded baserunning play by Soriano.

[SouthSideRyan]

Bob Brenly HATES Alfonso Soriano.

[Prior4CyYoung]

great play soriano.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Theriot grounded into a FC, 6-5, Soriano out at third

[BigSlick]

Soriano's running looked really scary.

 

His brain looks a lot worse. I don't even care if he gets injured, he needs to stop running his way into easy outs.

[Mizzou]

Soriano, you God damn idiot.

[Lockes Eye Scar]

Bob Brenly HATES Alfonso Soriano.

 

it's not hard to hate him with all the stupid things he does.

[Schwarber Fan]

wait a sec, so if the Cubs come back win this game, it's not gonna count?

[CUBZ99]

Bob Brenly HATES Alfonso Soriano.

 

I wonder why?

[Irrelevant Dude]

Bob Brenly HATES Alfonso Soriano.

That makes 2 of us. Actually, "hate" is a little strong, but I'm beginning to dislike him more and more.

[da bears]

pathetic game cubs.

[TMan92]

Gary Majewski....LOL. Nice job Cubs.

[Bruno7481]

wait a sec, so if the Cubs come back win this game, it's not gonna count?

 

Definitely possible.

[BCVM22]

What is it about teams like Cinci and Pittsburgh that inspires this entire team to revert to a bunch of Little Leaguers?

[jjgman21]

wait a sec, so if the Cubs come back win this game, it's not gonna count?

 

no. they will look to see whether the umpiring error made a difference in the outcome of the game.

 

about the only protest ever upheld and resulted in replaying a game was the George Brett pinetar incident.

[Keener98]

Good job Soriano Jesus

[Prior4CyYoung]

the switch had no barring on the game though so its kinda stupid.

[Guest]

I'm following on gamecast and I can tell Soriano is at fault for this based on the reactions in the game thread, but how does one actually get caught in a fielder's choice at third base when there was no force?

[Fred Hornkohl]

Definitely possible.

Yeah the Reds protest a game that means nothing to them, in which they have gotten the benefit of the doubt on several calls. Meanwhile the Astros called to ask me if I could pitch against the Brewers. Seems on the level to me.

[TMan92]

wait a sec, so if the Cubs come back win this game, it's not gonna count?

 

Definitely possible.

 

No need to worry...The mighty Reds bullpen is strong like bull.

[SouthSideRyan]

I'm not excusing Soriano's running, it was really dumb, but Keppinger was dumb to throw to 3rd on that. Runner on 3rd vs. runner on 2nd isn't a big deal whereas, there's more risk of not getting the out there going to 3rd compared to 1st. Who cares if it's a guy on 3rd with 2 outs. The slight risk of 1st and 3rd with 1 out isn't worth it.

[C.C.]

Well this sucks....
