Reds pitching give up 13 runs in the series, 6 of them unearned, and another 3 that should have been classified as unearned. :sigh:


The good thing is that a lot of young guys got playoff experience. This team wasn't winning it all, but the experience will be invaluable next year.

The pitching (outside of Volquez start) was good enough to beat the Phillies.
The problem is the errors and lack of hitting.
People will blame it on the youth, but most of those errors came from veteran players.

somebody go back to tuesday and tell votto and rolen the playoffs start wednesday.

15 years for a sweep is terribly disappointing.

Losing in the playoffs...whether 1 year or 15 years removed...is always disappointing.

But your opponent won 4 straight division titles, was looking for their 3rd straight trip to the NLCS,has been to the World Series two years in a row, and at nearly the top of their collective games (well, except hitting) coming in.

Small solace, I know, but the Reds are a good, young, team so I would expect them to return to the post-season next year.

Tip of the cap to ya!

Kudos to the reds pitching staff. They really held a dangerous lineup in check. It was the defense and offense that let down.

History shows that you can win a World Series with dominant pitching. But life is always better if you can hit the ball too. Which the Phillies didn't really do in their three games against the Reds: [b]They hit .212/.301/.273. with only four extra base hits in the whole series.[/b][/quote]

hey, you've chosen to be the class clown, and no one ever respects the class clown. Don't blame others for the path YOU'VE chosen to take.

yea I hate those kind of people too! I challenge you to find any post I've ever made where I've claimed to be an expert at anything or a know it all. There's a reason I use "IMO" in most of my posts.

I'm just a novice with an opinion.

Have I never been a dick? Sure I have, not many here can say they haven't. Being dickish and acting like you're better than people are two different things.


I'm not trying to get you to want me to respect you. You are what you are. But don't think you can pull little bullshit stunts like your name change and think people should have any respect for you.
