Posted April 18, 200619 yr Wow, not much a night eh? Did anyone honestly think we had a legit chance to win this game unless we scored atleast 7 runs? -Brian Moehler is absolute garbage. I'm sorry. I like the guy alot but he doesnt have an "out" pitch and doesnt throw hard enough to scare anyone -Reggie Abercrombie put on the show of shows in BP. I have never seen homers go so far. Then again, he also somehow took a pitch during BP, so go figure. He isnt ready for the big show though. -Matt Treanor threw me a ball during bp. -Josh Willingham might be the nicest guy in the history of major league baseball. I spoke to him for a good 5 minutes. Great guy. He was impressed the second I yelled "Hammer Time" at him. He walked right over. -Cepicky threw an absolute laser to home plate... very impressive -Franklyn German is a helluva dancer. He was shaking his rump in BP -I am not impressed at all by Claussen of the Reds. Most teams light him up. He has about the same stuff as Brian Moehler does -Reds fans in general are a nice bunch... a little odd, but I was dropping Marlins knowledge on them all game -GABP is an amazing park. My new favorite... the ball really carries there... it's awesome I think thats about it.... All of the players were great when I spoke to them. This is a great bunch of guys. It's a shame we sucked today, but it will get better. I promise
April 18, 200619 yr congrats wit the players Ramp, i know thats gotta be fun and yes Moehler does bite the big one
April 18, 200619 yr Hoping to get out to GABP sometime, I saw Riverfront and actually enjoyed it, but I enjoyed the town alot. Glad you had a good time, hopefully I can get a chance to talk to some of the players @ Busch Stadium in August.
April 18, 200619 yr Maybe you weren't impressed by Claussen (former Yankees prospect) but I'm sure our hitters were after he shut us out.
April 18, 200619 yr Author Maybe you weren't impressed by Claussen (former Yankees prospect) but I'm sure our hitters were after he shut us out. nah, our hitters just sucked tonight Ill give some credit to Claussen but he doesnt have good stuff
April 18, 200619 yr I was at the game... It sucked to see em lose.. But it had been since last July since I had actually seen the fish play, so.. it was fun for that. and I agree about GABP.. I especially liked the Reds Rising Minor League Player, that they did in one of the earlier innings. and just a good all around park.
April 18, 200619 yr I would say both the Reds and the Pirates have the nicest stadiums in all of baseball.
April 18, 200619 yr -Matt Treanor threw me a ball during bp. Treanor did that for me last season as well at Shea. Great guy.
April 18, 200619 yr -Franklyn German is a helluva dancer. He was shaking his rump in BP :lol :lol :lol I can just picture big man dancing. :lol :lol :lol

April 18, 200619 yr GABP Is sweet isn't it!?!? Did you get any Sky Line Chili??? :notworthy anyhoo sounds like a blast i was there a couple years ago Skylines good.. I have a friend who works there, up here.
April 18, 200619 yr hammer is a nice guy, i've taked to him as well. i wish abercrombie could hit like he does in bp during the game-when it counts.
April 18, 200619 yr that's awesome! I'd love to check out a couple more parks... I've only been to DS, AT&T Park, & Dodger Stadium...I might check out the A's this year...but yea, I've heard their park sucks :mischief
April 18, 200619 yr GABP is a sh*thole, especially in comparison to other new stadiums. Where'd you sit?
April 18, 200619 yr I remember last year when he went on that good streak and since that he hasnt been any good. He's garbage and should be replaced by someone ASAP!
April 18, 200619 yr Author GABP is a sh*thole, especially in comparison to other new stadiums. Where'd you sit? right behind home plate, about 10 rows back "scouts alley"
April 19, 200619 yr GABP is a sh*thole, especially in comparison to other new stadiums. Where'd you sit? That's BS. I've visited numerous "new" stadiums over the past 2 summers and GABP ranks up there with the best of them. It has a beautiful view of the Ohio River in CF.
April 19, 200619 yr GABP is a sh*thole, especially in comparison to other new stadiums. Where'd you sit? Just shut up.
April 19, 200619 yr Also has that weird section missing down the 3rd base line...not a knock on the stadium, I just always found that peculiuer(sp?)

Some people like fenway (wrigley, yankee) and some hate it.
