Subject: Reds @ Rockies

Look out, N.L. Central -- the Reds explode across the .400 mark by winning 2 of 3 in Coors Field....
 
 
Game 1: The Reds outhit the Rockies 15-6 and amassed 26 total bases, so this one wasn't close -- right?  Wrong.  The Reds LOBbed 12 and came up empty *16* times with RISP.  Toss in a starting pitcher who suddenly veered out of control and a requisite bullpen choke, and you've got yourself a real close contest.
 
However, the Reds did manage to eke out an 8-6 win after taking a 6-2 lead into the bottom of the 8th.  The Rockies scored twice in their half of the 8th without a hit via 4 free passes and a timely run-scoring balk.  Eddie Taubensee answered in the CIN 9th with a 2-run homer and it's a good thing he did because the Rockies got a gopher of their own in the bottom of the 9th and it should have been 2 -- Ellis Burks had a 1-19 chance but drew a "Cincy" and missed it.
 
======================================================================
 
Game 2: The Reds had a mere 3-run lead in the seventh, so of course we ended up in extra innings.  Home plate umpire HAL continued to put the squeeze on the visiting pitchers as he started to do in the opener, with Tyler Green being assigned 10 walks in 6 innings and the Reds accumulating 12 as a team.  For some reason batters on both teams were not eager to swing today, combining for 19 walks and 21 strikeouts in the 10 inning affair.
 
The Reds, as always, failed in the clutch (1 for 7) but so did Colorado in this game, leaving 15 runners on base.  Dale Sveum homered in the top of the 10th to give the Reds a 7-5 lead before lightweight slugger Terry Shumpert notched his 1st of the season in the bottom of the frame.  But his came with no one aboard and the Reds won by the count of 7-6.
 
Scrap heap pickup Patrick Lennon went 3 for 4 for the Reds and slugged his first homer; Lennon is now batting .567 (17 for 30) and slugging .800.
 
======================================================================
 
Game 3: Today's choke was one the Reds did not survive.  John Smiley's season continued its downward spiral, a 3-run gopher by Larry Walker in the 6th erasing Cincy's 3-1 lead and then some.  Final score: 4-3.  The would-be tying run was gunned at the plate in the 8th and the Reds submitted meekly in the 9th.  Taubensee homered again but that was just about our only payoff despite outhitting the Rockies and having more baserunners & total bases.
