That’s showing some team charachter! There are a lot of teams that would have tanked the rest of the series after the butt whipping they took last night. That showed me something.
As BigRedsFanInTN pointed out: Ryan Freel IS a jedi.
As BostonRedleg pointed out: Ryan Freel IS El Nino.
Not to be sacreligious here, but with all due respect, the Pete Rose Hustle Award obviously goes to Freel every year for the last few….BUT, even in Pete’s hey-day there’s NO WAY he could’ve made some of the defensive plays Freel’s made in the past (let alone tonight).
Still, Pete’s instincts WITH the hustle make him an incomparable player. Wow, I miss watching him, but at least Freel tonight evoked some of the old memories……
Chris, I gotta go above and beyond and say that THIS one was his greatest game, simply for the fact that this one actually counted for something and just when the Redlegs needed it most.
This is why I love baseball … A night after I couldn’t turn the TV on and stomach watching any of the game after the second inning, I thoroughly enjoyed last night’s game. Tuesday’s game was the cure for what ailed me on Monday.

Baseball can be a crazy game sometimes. Who could of imagined the Reds would respond like that after what happened Monday.
If the Reds win tomorrow, I may have to take off work on Thursday and drive four hours to watch the game.

I sure picked the wrong game to go to. We were tempted to go again tonight.
Tomorrow night could be a great rematch between Harang and Carpenter.
Did anyone catch the pregame with Narron when he ignored Brennaman’s question about the claims of Lizard tipping his pitches?

Tonight rivals last July 27, when he destroyed the Dodgers with his bare hands, as Freel’s greatest game.

His catch of Pujols’ drive was representative of every Reds fans give Sir Albert the middle finger salute. Thank you, RF!!
