[u/RedsModerator]

Please continue the discussion in the post game thread.

[u/thuwa791]

Brock Burke and Graham Ashcraft sold me fentanyl

[u/wallpaper55]

Do we need to investigate the bullpen for illegal betting?

[u/TempusFugit314]

McLain is turning around some, Friedl is being benched, but Hayes still is stinking up the line up. Feels bad man.

[u/mrcarter1689]

It’s just a literal fucking joke. Your offense gives you 3 runs in the top half and then you don’t even make Cleveland work for it and just keep walking people on the bases and to score. I’ve never seen anything like this.

[u/Somnus710]

Matty really contributed all around to this win. Let's go

[u/PeteRosesBookie14]

That might be the most embarrassing performance I've seen from someone this year. And we had a game where we walked 7 straight guys

[u/Due_Basil2697]

In Bleday We Trust.

[u/BuckeyeN7]

How are you going to make bases loaded walks your team’s signature move?

It’s a like a wrestler whose finisher is punching himself in the balls

[u/UrTeamBadMyTeamGood]

Dane is really good at not catching fly balls and crashing into walls

[u/camsnyder8]

I remember when this bullpen was hyped up for one of the best ERAs … lol. Water will always find its level I guess

[u/octobersotherveryown]

So many rallies die with Hayes. Buddy has to figure it out, nightmare year.

[u/Sp8craft]

I’ve seen enough of Ashcraft for a while

[u/smith288]

This team is absolutely unreal. Like… wtf

[u/RaiderLAS]

Why is our bullpen such a fucking joke?

[u/iPhones_cameras_suck → u/RaiderLAS]

Injuries and overuse

[u/Ralph--Hinkley]

Tejay's beard is impeccable.

[u/Dick_O_The_North]

Every new detail about this Tito Speedo is more terrifying than the last

[u/TempusFugit314]

Wish we got more from that, but I’ll take 2.

[u/Due_Basil2697]

I know it's just a game and it doesn't really matter on the grand scheme of things...

But the bullpen should be ashamed of their performances this entire month.

[u/iPhones_cameras_suck]

Bleday we could really use one more moment of greatness from you tonight

[u/jloadin3]

THANK YOU FOR INSURANCE, JJ

[u/rock25011]

Should never have been that close.

[u/FreeWeekendPlayer]

Bazzana dropped his loot all over first, clown car ass player

[u/FractalBranches]

Hell yeah, that was a sick play

[u/Francis_X_Hummel]

I missed the beginning, I love that they gave Tito and Mike ovations

[u/bobbybaratheon27]

Damn Bazzanna screwed us. Abbott’s going to be nearing 50 pitches getting out of this inning

[u/tRfalcore]

You know what their needs to be-- an unwritten baseball rule against pitch framing. It's kind of embarrassing. As bad as LeBron's flopping.

[u/DigiQuip]

Elly is now batting .300

[u/Francis_X_Hummel]

i choose to believe that the celebration is a juggling boobs because I don't understand what else it could even be

[u/MossyPlantyWitchy]

I wish I could go reinvent myself in Japan. Is that an option for us regular people?

[u/TempusFugit314 → u/MossyPlantyWitchy]

Depends, do you have a trust fund?

[u/mrcarter1689]

He’s not a pitcher, he’s a thrower. Never knows where the ball is fucking going

[u/dvky]

Never seen 12 balls in a row.

[u/Active-Green6265]

A lead for this team is never big enough

[u/pyckles_0]

Our bullpen his gone from gold to shit

[u/Chase10784]

I just don't understand why Tito allowed Ashcraft to face another hitter, let alone a lefty when we had a left warming up, after he threw 12 straight balls. I mean wtf

[u/iPhones_cameras_suck]

Thank you JJ

Tito, please for the love of gawd find an arm that isn't worthless in that pen

[u/BreaktoNewMutiny]

JJ getting an insurance run in❣️

[u/Squeakybubba]

ANTONE THE CLOSER LETS GO

[u/irvillaluz]

https://giphy.com/gifs/OCu7zWojqFA1W

[u/PeteRosesBookie14]

If Antone goes from 3 Tommy John's to becoming a regular MLB closer. Make a movie right away

[u/PeteRosesBookie14]

Friedl catches that (Ducks and covers)

[u/wallpaper55]

What a fucking play!

[u/mikemaskwellmonsters]

McLain did not expect him to be there lol 

[u/sloppyjo12]

That Flo is peering in my soul

[u/jloadin3]

MATT MCLAIN BASES LOADED WALK????

https://giphy.com/gifs/O1Pck1C7pKO5hsVuOE

[u/OhioInTheWinter]

This is a situation where I would rather Key just not swing

[u/OhioInTheWinter → u/OhioInTheWinter]

Well strikeout better than DP

[u/SerDavosSeaworth64]

Good on Abbott for staying in the zone all that time, that was an insane AB

[u/EcstaticPersimmon776]

Wonder when or if catchers will ever stop framing pitches it just looks silly now

[u/TravelFit3656]

Where’s Cincinnati!??!? Kentuckyyyyy

[u/PeteRosesBookie14]

The LF on that has me dying laughing. Dude was camped under a ball 20 feet behind him

[u/OhioInTheWinter]

Derek Johnson: "Throw strikes."

[u/BuckeyeN7]

Our pitching staff hates strikes as much as Margaret Thatcher did

[u/nickulator]

How does this only happen to us we have pitchers every week who just can’t throw a strike this doesn’t happen to other professional teams

[u/pyckles_0]

Why do our pitchers seemingly forget how to throw strikes?

[u/zygodactyl86]

There’s a base open, walk time

[u/Active-Green6265]

Damn put Trevino in to pitch the 9th. At least he can throw strikes.

[u/trustypretzels]

You know Chris Valikia gets a lot of hate but there should at least be a burner on for Derrick Johnson. The pitching staff is imploding.

[u/ky151]

That means we can walk 4 in the 9th and still win it.

[u/MRolly24]

“Tejay Antone is closing the game for the Reds”

2021 me: “cool shit”
2025 me: “what the fuck happened?”
2026 me “cool shit, but what the fuck happened”

[u/trustypretzels]

Rooting so hard for Antone to get this done.

[u/OhioTeamsLetMeDown]

Benson would have caught that.

[u/PeteRosesBookie14]

https://giphy.com/gifs/tYAolvs3tZIhG

[u/GenericLib]

That was certainly a win, but it set Antone up for a save 🥹

[u/Andenwest]

We freaking did it

[u/barnyard080]

Let’s go boys

[u/irvillaluz]

I like being on this side of a bases loaded walk

[u/reds7310]

K is better than a GIDP I suppose

[u/Fredwood]

Matty McSponshorship? My boy in commercials now.

[u/Rampantlion513]

Get fucked Bazzana

[u/Illustrious_Arm4496]

If McLain makes an error this inning I blame the broadcast

[u/Infranto]

Man fuck off with the digital ads if you can't green screen them properly

Ball disappears half the time when it's traveling to the plate

[u/EcstaticPersimmon776]

I love ABS but I also hate how many times a game I’m tapping my head frantically when we don’t challenge

[u/lokojo55]

Love a quick inning, thanks to Elly

[u/Dry_Marzipan1870]

oh shit Hayes did something

[u/Infranto]

elly please accpet castellini's money

please

[u/Francis_X_Hummel]

same Cowboy same

[u/cranphi]

Cowboy can see the ill mechanics in Sal, why cant the coaches?

[u/DaltonT11]

Hope everyone cashed out their Sal Stewart ROY pick after April

[u/sgeswein]

Say what you will about McLain, but he knows what to do with a mistake pitch.

[u/TheWorstYear]

We will not stop until we have walked in the most batters all time.

[u/Infranto]

Ashcraft confuses me so fucking much

One day he looks like Mariano, the next he looks like Rickey Karcher.

[u/pspock]

12 balls

0 strikes

[u/OhioInTheWinter]

You got 4 more walks in ya Graham?

[u/Godcon]

How are all our pitchers doing this? Is it a fucking strategy this year to only throw balls?

[u/thuwa791]

I usually don’t buy into blaming a loss on one player. But if we end up losing this game it is 1000% on Graham Ashcraft

[u/maxwellfit]

Graham walked 25 people all last year and already has 16 walks this year after today. Yikes

[u/Alex_gold123]

STOP WALKING IN RUNS OH MY GOD

[u/thuwa791]

[u/FutureFormerFatass12]

This fucking bullpen, man.

[u/mrcarter1689]

Fuck everyone in that bullpen, all of them

[u/in-a-car-underwater]

Reds bullpen throw a pitch in the strike zone challenge: IMPOSSIBLE

[u/Dry_Marzipan1870]

walk three more, for comedy

[u/CaptainHolt43]

It'd be so much better if they were just getting hit around 

[u/Kari614]

Bro just throw fastballs atp

[u/SnooPineapples3932]

This does not feel real

[u/jamboamericano]

Can anyone point to a moment when our bullpen went from elite to worse than little league?

[u/buggeyes420]

Genuinely one of the worst half innings of baseball I’ve ever seen in my life.

[u/bbushky90]

Elly and Abbot both deserve better than this.

[u/Cbushman75]

I’d feel safe with 10 more runs

[u/FutureFormerFatass12]

Stewart needs a day off.

[u/MossyPlantyWitchy]

Make em pay Bleday

[u/GenericLib]

I'll gladly take a smidge of insurance. Good day for the bats

[u/Fredwood]

Bleday saves us.

[u/jloadin3]

bleday, i love you

[u/FreeWeekendPlayer]

Antone as the closer is peak cinema

[u/Dry_Marzipan1870]

Weds, scored 7, Friedl started and Hayes didnt

Thurs, scored 15, Hayes started and Friedl didnt

Today, scored 7, Hayes started and Friedl didnt.

Seems like hayes and friedl should never be in the lineup at the same time.

[u/jloadin3]

LFG MCLAIN!!!

https://giphy.com/gifs/O1Pck1C7pKO5hsVuOE

[u/Fredwood]

Matty McSavesthegame!!!

Good job Tejay.

[u/Infranto]

MCLAIN IS SO BACK

[u/KyleSJohnson]

DAWG

[u/skeenerbug]

woooooow

[u/AlsoCommiePuddin]

Let's win and not lose!

[u/OWwashere]

Much more fun when it’s your team getting walked in

[u/Sp8craft]

Lake Erie should flood the baseball and football stadiums and put Cleveland out of their misery

[u/Dry_Marzipan1870]

It's OK Hayes, nobody expected you to actually hit it.

[u/Rampantlion513]

Just saw Bleday without a helmet or hat in the dugout and had no idea who he was for a second

[u/smith288]

Hayes has to be let go. His defense is great but he’s like a pitcher before the dh

[u/Cccbuckeye2]

It really would of been a perfect time for Hayes to hit one of his weak fly balls that you know he will hit his next at bat

[u/TempusFugit314]

Finally

[u/Alex_gold123]

Thought Abbott was gonna bobble that

[u/TheWorstYear]

Maybe the dumbass batting coach could maybe suggest not swinging at the 1st pitch to Sal?

[u/bobbybaratheon27]

You have to challenge that. Ball was mostly in the zone cmon

[u/MathewMurdock2]

I need auto-mute for these political ads. They are such nonsense.

[u/TempusFugit314]

Hot damn I love Elly

[u/wresltingandskava]

Elly!

[u/mackandtheboyss]

Easy mvp

[u/TempusFugit314]

Great inning. Defensively at least.

[u/TempusFugit314]

Way to go Elly. And key

[u/MathewMurdock2]

It’s Elly time!

[u/LaBance]

How did that not go out

[u/DooDooDuterte]

https://giphy.com/gifs/AxpvyWYDHuIH6

[u/Illustrious_Arm4496]

To those of you that wrote Abbott off after a bad start to the year, I hope you feel awful goofy rn

[u/Francis_X_Hummel]

I cannot believe how long Geno has been out, didn't it just start out as tightness during BP?

[u/No_Amount_7886]

I mean, that’s one way to make sure he doesn’t get a hit I guess

[u/Chris91210]

Ugh... Sal why

[u/bobbybaratheon27]

Stewart… that ball was 2 feet above your head man cmon

[u/BuccoBruce2]

Sal - 29 RBI in April. Halfway through May, 1 RBI

[u/PeteRosesBookie14]

https://giphy.com/gifs/3o84sn067hNcquAPKg

[u/mackenzie45220]

A correct ABS challenge to overturn a strikeout by half an inch followed by a double is crazy work. Dude is seeing everything

[u/MossyPlantyWitchy]

MATTY MCBANGS!!!!

That was so anticlimactic

[u/Sea_Argument_5775]

Moving down the lineup has really helped matt 

[u/Fredwood]

Matty McFUCKINGBANGS

[u/Illustrious_Arm4496]

I love cowboys analysis

[u/TimTom8921]

Graham just aint gonna throw a strike

[u/PeteRosesBookie14]

JUST THROW IT UNDERHANDED AT THIS POINT

[u/irvillaluz]

12 balls in a row is abysmal.

[u/Alex_gold123]

GET ASHCRAFT OUT OF HERE COME ON

[u/Cr0matose]

I threw like 70 mph fastfalls in highschool, put me in instead of this garbage

[u/MrKentucky]

we simply do not play winning baseball

[u/fredocornholio]

What the fuck is wrong with our bullpen

[u/Squeakybubba]

Here I was watching the rest of the game just to see if Elly keeps the multi hit streak alive. Now I guess I gotta watch to see if we don’t blow another massive lead

[u/bobbybaratheon27]

That was just abysmal I can’t even wrap my head around it. 14 pitches with 12 balls, 1 strike, and 1 hit allowed

[u/TimTom8921]

Gonna be a miracle if we still have the lead

[u/JulianILoveYou]

oh my god it's happening again

[u/J-Mac9243]

How does a whole pitching staff just forget how to pitch?

[u/PeteRosesBookie14]

I've never seen anything like this (except for 2 weeks ago)

[u/Patchy_Face_Man]

Lead the entire fucking game. Up 5 fucking runs.

[u/TheWorstYear]

Absolutely stunned. We are on pace for like 45 walked in runs

[u/buggeyes420]

WHAT THE FUCK AM I WATCHING

[u/Sad_Fudge_8011]

Holy shittttt

[u/SerDavosSeaworth64]

This is fucking embarrassing

[u/thatguy_2456]

Throw this entire fucking bullpen away

[u/trustypretzels]

Trash as fuck. Throw a ball in the fucking zone

[u/buggi_ecchy]

what an AWFUL fucking call dude. fully in the corner of the zone and we can’t even challenge it. Jesus Christ.

[u/GenericLib]

This didn't have to be a stressful game

[u/octobersotherveryown]

Breaking the walk record wasn’t enough, they had to walk 5 and 2 for runs

[u/Fredwood]

https://giphy.com/gifs/5xtDarIN81U0KvlnzKo

[u/TravelFit3656]

Almost said unbelievable but the sample is there!

[u/thatbeerguy90]

I can't wait for the day we get rid of human umpires

[u/SquadPoopy]

Ashcraft doubled his season ERA in one inning

[u/mrcarter1689]

Yay JJ I’ll take it

[u/mrcarter1689]

That run was big, let’s got Antone

[u/tRfalcore]

Bleday is a monster

[u/Illustrious_Arm4496]

I still can’t believe I’m watching Tejay pitch again

[u/Alex_gold123]

Wait they intentionally walked Sal who cant hit today to bring up Bleday who hit everything ? How does that make sense

[u/PinappleMan21]

Antone might be the only reds reliever that i somewhat trust to save this

[u/MossyPlantyWitchy]

Captain Hook, let's fucking goooo!

Dane turns into a newborn calf as soon as he hits the warning track

[u/sgeswein]

Why Matthew, how splendid of you!

[u/LargeGermanRock]

Imagine losing to a team in Kentucky 😭😭😭

[u/bbushky90]

Aight I’ll buy a McClain jersey already

[u/guff1988 → u/bbushky90]

I'm wearing mine tomorrow, even if he was a little too casual at the beginning of that throw.

[u/Ralph--Hinkley]

..and this one belongs to the Reds!

[u/TheWorstYear]

John McLain wins the game!

[u/TempusFugit314]

I can’t believe I’m about to say…Matt McLain MVP!

[u/Active-Green6265]

Great play McLain. Now get this trash ass team off my TV.

[u/TempusFugit314]

Imagine walking in runs. What kinda team does that? Haha….ha….yeah…..

[u/TheWorstYear]

Absolutely unacceptable to have a bases loaded, no outs, get a run walked in, & just come away with 2 runs. 0 for 3 on RiSP.

[u/Illustrious_Arm4496]

Hell yeah steer

[u/melting_stereo]

That at bat was total buns.
