Brandon Phillips Freaked Juan Uribe Out With A Fake Tag
Major League Baseball is apparently all about fun and mischief tonight, as another NL second baseman tricked a baserunner with a deke. Daniel Murphy got Yoenis Cespedes with a fake throw earlier tonight, and Brandon Phillips caught Juan Uribe loafing off second base with his empty glove. Poor Uribe ...
Steve Delabar Walked In Four Straight Runs And It Was The Saddest Shit
You ready for some grim baseball, my friends? Then let me tell you about Steve Delabar, the Reds reliever who walked four straight batters with the bases loaded last night....
Six Good Dogs At The Reds Game
The Cincinnati Reds held their Bark in the Park event at Tuesday’s game, and all the pups were out to watch some baseball. Like last year, some dogs stood out above the rest. Although every dog is good, these dogs were better....
Billy Hamilton Lays Out For Spectacular Catch, Possibly Angers Baseball Gods
The Reds lost to the Mets again, despite being comfortably up 3-0 when Billy Hamilton made this spectacular full-stretch diving catch to get Kevin Plawecki out. After the catch, the Mets came back and scored four runs in the seventh to win 4-3. Did Hamilton’s dope catch call malevolent baseball spir...
Brandon Phillips Got Hit By Three Baseballs In One At-Bat
Tonight was not a good night for the Reds. They lost 5-3 to the Mets, and Brandon Phillips was a punching bag for the baseball throughout the course of his fourth-inning at-bat against Noah Syndergaard. ...
Cincinnati Reds Twitter Finds Perfect Way To Recap Game They Got No-Hit
When you run the Cincinnati Reds’ Twitter, and the team loses in a 16-0 no-hitter, it’s tough to find a silver lining. But, you have a job to do. Those sad fans need their recap. Thursday’s final result:...
Jake Arrieta Throws First No-Hitter Of The Season
The Cubs might have to break out the pajamas again, because Jake Arrieta has thrown another no-hitter, blanking the Reds in a 16-0 blowout win on only 119 pitches. Incredibly, Arrieta hasn’t lost a start since his no-no back in August, and today was (obviously) his best outing since then. He only st...
The Voice Of This Reds Fan Yelling Joey Votto's Name Will Never Leave You
Millennia from now, when humanity is extinct, the winds cease, and the face of the earth is ravaged, what little remains are left of Great American Ballpark in Cincinnati will still carry one eternal sound:...
Gerardo Parra Nabs Jay Bruce With A Laserbeam From The Wall
Gerardo Parra’s reputation as a defensive wizard might be a bit out ahead of his actual production since his historic 2013 season, but man, the Rockies outfielder’s still got plenty of highlights in him. Look at this throw, which wasn’t even perfectly on line but still got Bruce out at third fair an...
Billy Hamilton's Home Run Trot Was MLB's Fastest
Reds outfielder Billy Hamilton is blindingly fast, and seemingly the only way to keep him from using his speed is to keep him off the bases. One way to do that, I guess, is to serve up a home run. But last night not even that could cool down the afterburners....
Joey Votto's Doing A Thing Now
Baseball players are creatures of routine. During yesterday’s game, Joey Votto unveiled a new one: leaning on his bat between pitches....
Why Prosecutors Didn't Bring Charges Against Aroldis Chapman
Prosecutors have declined to bring charges against now-Yankees pitcher Aroldis Chapman for his actions the night he was accused of choking his girlfriend and firing eight gunshots inside his garage, the Broward State Attorney’s Office announced today. The office also released a closeout memo, writte...
You Could Probably Start For The Yankees, But Their Bullpen Is Absolutely Terrifying
The New York Yankees have acquired Aroldis Chapman, the hardest-throwing pitcher in baseball, from the Cincinnati Reds for a package of four mostly unheralded minor leaguers....
Police: Aroldis Chapman Fired Eight Gunshots, Accused Of Choking Girlfriend In October Fight
Reds flamethrowing closer Aroldis Chapman fired eight gunshots inside of his garage and was accused by his girlfriend of choking her during an October 30 party at his Davie, Fla. home, according to a police report obtained by Yahoo....
Joey Votto Gets Tossed, Goes Berserk, Has To Be Held Back By Ump
The Reds may be approximately one million games out of the playoffs, but that doesn’t mean Joey Votto is mailing it in. In the middle of an at-bat during the 8th inning of tonight’s game against the Pirates, Votto was unhappy that home plate ump Bill Welke didn’t grant him time and/or made a bad str...
Dog Wants Hot Dog
Boy, that dog looks like it could use a half-eaten hot dog—or literally any unattended food—right now. Unfortunately for the pup, its owner didn’t relinquish the snack. Sorry, dog. Eat your own chow....
Reds' Jason Bourgeois Forgets Infield Fly Rule, Strolls Into Double Play
I’ve got nothing but sympathy for Cincinnati outfielder Jason Bourgeois, who killed a potential Reds rally by needlessly breaking for home when he could have stayed safely at third. I know the infield fly rule by heart—and I’d bet Borgeoius does too—but it’s invoked so infrequently, and clashes so s...
Royals Trade For Johnny Cueto, Gear Up For Postseason Run
The Royals have the second-best record in baseball, the fourth-best run differential, and lead their division by six-and-a-half games. Barring an incredible disaster, they’re going to the playoffs. But they still didn’t feel like the team was well-positioned, and on Sunday traded Brandon Finnegan, J...
Reds Fan Runs On Field, Films Selfie Video, Escapes Ballpark
It could have been the perfect crime. Justin Buchanan, 19, dashed onto the field at last night’s Cubs-Reds game (while filming himself the entire way), tried to say hi to Billy Hamilton, tossed his phone onto the grass over the centerfield wall, hopped the fence, clambered up into the seats, and dis...
MLB Will Shorten The Home Run Derby Because Of The Weather
Severe weather is expected in much of the Midwest tonight, and that includes Cincinnati, home of the All-Star Game and tonight’s Home Run Derby. There’s the possibility of lightning, damaging winds, and downpours like the ones that rolled through this afternoon:...
