This is a thread in which hopefully everyone will voice thier opinion on why the Reds lost this game or that game. So here is my first:
6/17/06 CWS @ CIN
Why: The Reds lost this game because Jerry Narron pitch-hitted Quinton McCracken for Eric Milton. McCracken is a bad hitter and I would have rather seen Milton hit for himself or have Juan Castro or (I can't believe I'm saying this) Jason LaRue. If anyone would have gotten a base hit in that AB, 2 runs would have scored. He is another point, if Milton had batted for himself, he would have probably pitched the 7th, Hammond pitches the 8th again like last night (1 R) and Coffey would have come in in a save situation.
But I also believe that the fans made the Reds lose (note signature).
