What inning are we in?

Going to the bottom of the 8th....

David Hernandez on to pitch.....

Nice stop by J Roll, the throw was lacking though.

 

[Driaz]

Damn.....great sliding stop in the hole by Rollins, but wide throw and Votto is safe at first to start the inning.....

 

[bamabear82]

Morneau strikes out, 1 away.

 

[hokiehi21]

those damn tricky canadians

 

[Driaz]

Big strikeout by Hernandez on the big slider for the first out......


.....bunt single now so runners 1st and 2nd, one out......

 

[bamabear82]

Jesuse, bunt single Canada. Runners at 1st and 2nd. That almost got ugly, Hosmer jumped like 8 foot to catch that turrible throw to 1st.

Axford to pitch the 9th for Canada....

 

[Driaz]

good battle here

Usually the batter seems to win these long pitch at bats......hopefully Maddux told him to strike this mother fucker out......

....damn, another foul ball....

 

[Driaz]

Single, but the hold Votto at third......bases loaded, one out.......

 

[hokiehi21]

roll me a 4-6-3 DP

 

[Driaz]

Ground out to second plates one....

5-4 USA with two outs, runners 2nd and 3rd.....

 

[hokiehi21]

Here comes Steve Cishek

 

[Driaz]

Pitching change....

 

[Driaz]

roll me a 4-6-3 DP

He did get the groundball to 2nd, but too far to his left.....

 

[Driaz]

IBB to load the bases.....

Personal pet peeve, if you are going to IBB a guy, don't bring in a new pitcher and have him do it, let the guy you are taking out do it......

2nd time Torre has done that.....

 

[hokiehi21]

Cishek gets the job done. To the 9th we go.
