3-outs on the basepaths so far today not giving us even a snail's chance with this one.
Aurilia hit a deep fly that Ellison made a nice catch on, damn it, thought that was going out.
Need Giants to put up a 4-spot and see Giants bullpen let Cincy back in the 6th-7th-8th innings.
Too bad Latroy threw 25 pitches yesterday b/c he's an over's bettors dream whenever he gets into a ball game.
The only good news is thanks to Aurilia, Tomko's pitch count is very high. He won't make it to the 7th, and perhaps not even into the 6th if Giants can get a couple men on and some runs in.

I'm totally dumbfounded myself.Dr Rubberfunk said:
This game hasn't played like any game this entire season where either of these pitchers started. Sometimes strange shxx happens.... *shrugs*
Still only 1/2 way through, and both bullpens have given it up before. Maybe one of these guys can pull a Braves 6-spot in the late innings.
3-1 SF after 5 innings.
We've lost 1 or 2 runs with base running mistakes, but at least now we have a chance.
Ideal scenario is for Reds to put up a 3-spot in 6th 7th or 8th and Giants are bound to score one more run for at least a 4-4 score.

Dang it, Dunn missed a bases clearing double by about 8 inches... ends up striking out.
Munter, Giant's secret ground ball specialist in vs. Pena.
Pena needs to jack one right here.... worse case get a hit to score 2 for a 3-3 tie then anything is possible.

How do Reds not score in that spot? Unreal... wait, maybe that's why Reds suck so much this year. Valentin swings at a 2-0 pitch near his shoe tops, would've been 3-0 with bases juiced and Munter hasn't thrown a strike yet.
Guess I'll have to ask for Giants to give me some magic and put up a Braves 6-spot here.
