Subject: Reds @ Expos

At least among teams south of Toronto, nobody - but NOBODY - chokes like the Reds.  We offer more dramatic proof this week, not that any proof should still be necessary....
 
 
Game 1: Jose Rijo has now made 16 starts in 1986 and pitched over 100 innings; he has earned a total of 3 decisions (all wins, somehow).  Today the Arson Squad was once again in typical form and Rijo (8 IP, 2 runs, 10 Ks) was victimized as he has been so often before.  The Reds trailed 2-1 entering the 9th but Jeff Reardon looked like he was auditioning for a trade to Cincinnati: he allowed 2 runners after 2 were out, then gave up a home run on a split card of 1 to pinch hitter Jim Pankovits.
 
Reardon's performance was admirable, but the Reds simply will not permit themselves to be outchoked.
 
Enter Steve Farr to protect our 4-2 lead in the bottom of the 9th.  Five batters later, none of whom were retired (single, blown-x single+error, wild pitch, walk, single, single), the prospective 4-2 win had become a 5-4 loss.
 
 
Game 2: No false breaks today in our favor (like low-probability pinch homers) - we revert to getting no breaks at all.  Although the teams were close in hits, Bryn Smith had no trouble whatsoever with the Cincy batters while CIN starter Bob Walk allowed 10 baserunners (6 on walks) in 4 innings and reliever John Franco started with a "Perfect Sambito" and went downhill from there to seal the defeat.  Final score: 7-2.
 
 
Game 3: Today's starting pitchers entered the game with a combined record of 19-3, and that's the same record they left it with.  Andy McGaffigan and Bill Gullickson dueled to a 1-1 draw until the Reds broke the contest open with a run in the 8th.
 
As in game 1, the Cincy bullpen made it through the 9th inning without managing to retire a single batter, Mike Schmidt's game-ending gopher being the deciding factor this time.  Final score: 3-2, as the Reds maintain our unchallenged status as Champion Chokers of the N.L. for another week.
 
Alan
