Posted in The Cincinnati Reds’ bats were certainly sizzling as they had 15 hits on Sunday, with Drew Stubbs and Scott Rolen leading the way, combining for 6 RBIs.

Harang Roughed Up In Final Spring Start, Padres Beat Reds 7-5
If Tuesday afternoon’s game was any indication, Aaron Harang needs to bring his “A” game to his start when the Reds open the regular season on April 5. While the Reds did have some offense in their bats during their game Tuesday against the San Diego Padres, Harang got roughed up a bit as he [...]
Fisher, Others Get Pasted As Cubs Spank Reds 8-1
Perhaps it is a good thing that spring training is not much more than the starters and reserves getting into playing shape and others trying to fill some spots in the 25-man lineup for the regular season. Monday afternoon’s game between the Cincinnati Reds and Chicago Cubs was one where no single pitcher was competing [...]
Arroyo Outdueled, Reds Nipped By Dodgers 2-1
While the Cincinnati Reds’ offense has been quiet as of late, the starting pitching has improved recently; Sunday afternoon was no different as the Reds hosted the Los Angeles Dodgers at Goodyear. What took place for nine innings was a true pitching duel between Bronson Arroyo and the Dodgers’ Clayton Kershaw; just twelve hits were [...]

One likely candidate to start the year near the top of the Bats’ starting rotation [...]
Despite Gomes’ And Votto’s Bats, Reds Still Drop 3-2 Decision To Padres
Joey Votto’s bat is heating up at perhaps the right time. Jonny Gomes? Same thing. While both had good efforts Saturday afternoon during the Cincinnati Reds’ game against the San Diego Padres, their efforts went to naught as a pinch-hit RBI by Luis Martinez allowed San Diego to edge Cincinnati 3-2 at Peoria. Gomes is cosntinuing [...]
Chapman’s Back Improving
It has to be good news to find out that Cincinnati Reds’ rookie Aroldis Chapman is reporting no pain in his throwing sessions. As we already know, Chapman suffered some back spasms a few days ago, and the Reds have been extra careful on their prized prospect. But Chapman had no issues with the back [...]
Votto Goes Yard, Leake Strong In Mariners’ 6-5 Win Over Reds
Ken Griffey had a homecoming, of sorts, Friday as the Cincinnati Reds faced the Seattle Mariners at Peoria. Griffey wasn’t affected much as he hit a grand slam in the ninth inning, allowing Seattle to get past Cincinnati 6-5. Joey Votto had arguably his best game of the spring as he went 3-for-4, scoring a [...]
