I'd cringe if Wood is on the mound.
-
What's with the sig? Duncan K's on a pitch that hit him.
-
Griffey walks, two on, two out for Phillips.
-
Keppinger with a 2 out single.

8/18 Other Games Thread

I'm making updates in the Cubs game thread. Will move them here when that one resumes. -
Hall flies out to CF. Scoreless after two in Milwaukee.
-
Jenkins grounds out to first, two out.
-
Braun flies out. one down, bottom of second.
-
Hopefully they'd stay with it. Pre-season football sucks anyway. I'm a Cowboys fan and I agree.
-
Ugh, DP for the Brewers. Dunn about killed Hardy as he slid into second though.
-
So, if this game drags past 7:00 CST, will FOX stay with it or will they switch to the Cowboys-Broncos preseason game?
-
Dunn leads off the second with a walk in the Brewers game.
-
0-0, Brewers vs Reds end of one.
-
Link to the rules? MLB Rules.
-
Let me ask this then... if they were able to play just long enough to retire Duncan and the Cards for the 8th, and it started raining hard enough to pull the tarp out again... could the game be called without much of a hitch at that point?? Yes. If the Cards had been retired, I know it could be called a completed game.
-
I'm reading the rules, but still confused some. I think I might be wrong and that this might be a regulation game if the rains don't let up. Still a bit unsure though.
-
Nope. Under the new rules, it's now suspended. You sure about that? Not positive...but I think so. Let me check the rules again.

Ah no! Suspended game instead of called game now. ugh
-
Two strikes! Finish him!
-
Get this out and then call the game!

Wood hasn't looked all the great and this is a pivotal game. We've got a 3 run lead. He needs to work his kinks out so he can be a valuable part of the pen coming down the stretch. You say that like a 3 run lead is safe? not entirely, but we're facing a horrible lineup (save pujols) and it's STILL a 3 run lead. You're acting like its a tie game against the '27 yankees. And Pujols is due up second this inning So Woody can't face any good batters, even with a 3 run lead? How's he going to get his confidence? Lou has pitched him a tie game. I just think at this point in time he can't be relied on a pivotal game like this. We have a chance to bury this team. He's Kerry Wood, not some scrub from the Reds bullpen. I like Kerry and all, but his last outing was bad. The outing before that was bad. He may have a history of being good, but I'm not sure he is right now.

Wards still scares me....

Come on, Bob.

Based on the way Wood looked in his last outing, I'd prefer Piggy right now. And now it's a 2-run lead.
