Cincy Friday Game Start Time changed to 1:00 pm due to expected rain storms:

[Chairman of the Board]

T6
Meola error ends a streak of I think 11 in a row retired

And he scores on a 2 out double

4-3

 

[ostate77]

Followed by another in left and it’s 4-3 instead of the third out.

 

[SanditeCowboy]

My goodness fellas, play some defense! Pesca deserves better than this.

 

[Chairman of the Board]

B6
1 out singles from Shull and Conover

 

[Chairman of the Board]

Shull out at home trying to score on WP. I hate that wall

 

[ostate77]

Then pathetic 3rd base coaching costs us the inning. It’s like we don’t know. The ball bounces right back. Just awful coaching.

 

[SanditeCowboy]

Try to give you a run and you say, “No thanks. We like to make games as difficult as possible.”

Were the home team, have to be smarter.

 

[Chairman of the Board]

Pesca is done. Maybe had a blister

 

[SanditeCowboy]

Shull out at home trying to score on WP. I hate that wall

I didn’t see it but it’s not like we don’t know the ball comes back hard off that brick wall. On our home field! With one out, gotta hold up there.

Coach Ward agrees on the radio call. Said it’ll make ya look like an idiot.

And 3rd base coaching costs us did. Piss poor coaching.

11-3 Pokes

 

[Chairman of the Board]

Pokes win 11-3

Back to 5-6 in league play

 

[Chairman of the Board]

They've played well this week. Pitching has been good enough and the ball is leaving the yard at a crazy rate. Drawing lots of walks, and honestly they've faced poor pitching.

This is Josh-ball at its finest. I hope it continues all the way to the postseason. But it probably won't. This is the yearly April hot streak. Sorry to be a party pooper. I'll gladly eat my words.

 

[ostate77]

Pitching tonight was good. After a slightly shaky start, Pesca threw well. And Stormy followed on short warm up and did a good job.

 

[SanditeCowboy]

Nice series win by the Cowboys! Now go sweep it tomorrow fellas!

Good to see Pesca and Stormy do their thing. Some much needed work from the pitching staff.

 

[1slowpoke]

Per Josh interview Stormy was going to start on Sunday as Barrett is questionable. Now Stormy can’t go on Sunday so we could have a surprise starter on Sunday. Does anyone know if Hunter Watkins is ready to go as there was speculation he may be ready towards the end of the season?

Did they expect Pesca to go 9? Somebody was going to have to come in and close it out.

 

[Cowboy4life9688]

Barrett isn’t pitching the rest of the season. Outside chance Watkins pitches this season although he’s been throwing. Who’s throwing tomorrow, who knows. Stormy will be the Sunday starter going forward and wasn’t supposed to pitch tonight. This pitching staff is the walking wounded

All I know is he better not throw Brennan Phillips to start tomorrow!!
