Re: Red's Fans Check in
It was nice to see Votto save the day yesterday after Greinke completely shut them down. This team is worrisome, as it seems they can't ever get everything to line up at the same time. It will be interesting going forward to see how they progress against this weak division.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
Did you ever wonder how a pitcher can throw a ball that can almost magically drop sharply before reaching the plate? This ordinary phenomenon is called a curve ball, and the explanation of this occurance can be described with a few basic lessons in fluid flow dynamics.
What you have to remember in this problem is that air is a fluid, and that things moving through air behave much like those passing through water, only on a less noticeable scale. An observable phenomenon known as the Venturi Effect tells us that a fluid flowing at a higher velocity has a lower pressure than that same material at a lower velocity, all other variables kept constant. To observe this, suspend two tennis balls from equal lenth strings about 5 cm apart. Blow a hairdyer though the gap between them and they will actually be drawn together because atmospheric pressure will try to fill the low pressure void and will in the process push the balls together. So high velocity means low pressure. Back to the ball. The pitcher throws the ball with plenty of topspin (or, to make it curve left or right, sidespin). The spin of the ball magnifies the velocity of the air passing below the ball and lessens the velocity of the passing air above the ball. Higher velocity below and lower velocity above means low pressure on bottom and high pressure on top. The high pressure takes advantage of the low pressure and forces the ball to travel downwards.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
And Marshall couldn't hit the zone with a 2-seamer yesterday, but his offspeed pitches were thrown for strikes more times than not. Nothing against Marshall, but it was a bad day to have a bad day. Still, we won the game and the series. Now off to face the Expos again, who are winning more games than we are. Let's hope for the best.

Re: Red's Fans Check in
I just loved seeing Turd Rolen foul out with the bases loaded. Thanks Dusty, you POS for putting him in the lineup. It was great watching Frasier on the bench
