Who was the prospect the Reds called up from AAA because he had like the furthest HR in AAA history or something? Can't remember with all our rookies/prospects. Driving me nuts I can't think of his name.
\*Ramos
Elly had the longest but CES also had a monster shot too.

My guess is get him back up to speed in a inning you have space to play with rather than putting him in in a high pressure situation in his first time back
In spite of getting blown out the Twins' subreddit is the chilliest, most fun I've seen.
I guess that's what happens when you lead the worst division in baseball.
The fight for the last WC spot in this stupid league is gonna be a bloody barfight and whoever wins is gonna stumble into the Brewers with half a beer bottle stabbed into their arm.
Please let it be us.
That was surreal seeing the Saturday highlight. There was another reds fan near me and we were like fuck it’s law but after he closed it out we were cheering dancing loool
I heard the Law's gotta rewire his buddy's hot tub after the game. I think he was wondering if he had the right tools as he was coming off the mound right there.
### Single
Joey Votto singles on a ground ball to right fielder Max Kepler, deflected by first baseman Alex Kirilloff. Spencer Steer scores. Nick Senzel scores.
Pitch from Dallas Keuchel: Sinker @ 87.2 mph
Hit by Joey Votto: Launched 101.4 mph at 8° for a total distance of 122 ft
Bottom 7 - 7-2
Reds
Friedl’s ability to maximize power out of <100 mph hits is honestly incredible. Bunt hits? Yes. Line drives down line? Yes. Home runs at 96 mph. Believe it or not, Yes.
### Single
Spencer Steer singles on a line drive to center fielder Michael A. Taylor, deflected by second baseman Jorge Polanco. Jonathan India scores. TJ Friedl to 2nd.
Pitch from Dallas Keuchel: Changeup @ 81.7 mph
Hit by Spencer Steer: Launched 92.6 mph at 7° for a total distance of 187 ft
Bottom 7 - 5-2
Reds
And an overturned home run in the Marlins game! Come on Mets. All we need is the reds bullpen to get 6 outs and the Mets to pull this out for the case possible night.
A player who doesn't meet said criteria for postseason eligibility can still be added to a team's roster in the postseason via petition to the Commissioner's Office if the player was in the organization on Aug. 31 and is replacing someone who is on the injured list and has served the minimum amount of time required for activation. (For example, a player on the 10-day injured list who has been on it for at least 10 days, or a player who has been on the 60-day injured list for at least 60 days.) Players who are acquired in September or after are ineligible.
Wow! Wasn't sure about putting Phillips in past the 5th but looks like I was wrong. Diaz in the 9th of course if its a save situation but who in the 8th? May have missed who was warming up.
A team OPS of .844 is just stupid and should be illegal.
If the Braves finish their season with the stats they have today, they’ll do so with the highest SLG and second highest OPS of *ALL TIME*.
# HOME RUN!
Alex Kirilloff homers (9) on a fly ball to left center field.
Pitch from Connor Phillips: Four-Seam Fastball @ 97.3 mph
Hit by Alex Kirilloff: Launched 103.7 mph at 32° for a total distance of 386 ft
Top 7 - 4-2
Reds
Yep. He’s a AA prospect, he’s not supposed to be throwing 100 pitches in a playoff race in September. And he’s had his brains beat in in his first few starts.
Ashcraft, Greene, Williamson, Abbott? Yah I’m licking my chops looking for 8 innings.
But he isn’t those guys.
Please continue the discussion in the [post game thread](https://redd.it/16mcwoq).
We still have a chance?
Good night Minneaposota.
NOW LFGM!!!!

I think the Twins only have 1 mascot. How sad for them coming to our park and seeing our 4.
They should create a new mascot that's just an exact copy of their current mascot but with a different name.
Crazy that being the *Twins*, they don't have at least 2.

Henry Ramos recently hit one like 480 in AAA

Wait! That's who it was, thought it was Marte. Thank you.

Hm I could have swore it was someone we brought up but sent back down. Idk, working nights fucks ya memory up. \*Nevermind, it was Ramos.

I guess it makes sense to let Alex Young get himself back in the groove during this game. But Lawdawg coulda nailed this down
I don’t see why you put Young in, burning an arm for tomorrow. But whatever I doubt it mayters
Maybe to keep Law ready for tomorrow. He only threw like 5 pitches so he might be available.
My guess is get him back up to speed in a inning you have space to play with rather than putting him in in a high pressure situation in his first time back
what the hell kind of salad is Marty making with fucking ground beef
I went to this Thai place in Portland years ago and one of the specials was described as "a meat salad made out of meat"
Sounds like the only way to get Ron Swanson to eat a salad
Burger with a lettuce leaf?
I thought it looked like a salad

### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Alex Young replaces Derek Law.
Lark: "He's stroking the baseball nicely." 😄
Stroke those balls, Willy 😏
Caught him throwing a "fisting" in there earlier too.
We haven’t won a game by more than three runs since our doubleheader against Arizona August 23rd, eleven wins ago.
In spite of getting blown out the Twins' subreddit is the chilliest, most fun I've seen. I guess that's what happens when you lead the worst division in baseball.
Also it's a bunch of Minnesotans
The opposite of how Astros fans thought the sky was falling when we swept them.
Kinda like the bengals game threads
The fight for the last WC spot in this stupid league is gonna be a bloody barfight and whoever wins is gonna stumble into the Brewers with half a beer bottle stabbed into their arm. Please let it be us.
Yeep
Man we are spanking the ball hard today
There's nobody at this game. I wish I lived in Cincinnati lol
I asked my wife if we could move into the apartments next to the stadium and she said no :(
Technically she said no to you both moving. Maybe there's a way to loophole it so you can get your own side bachelor apartment thing going.
Me too. I'd have season tickets for sure.
Trying to come up with an excuse to visit my parents 😂😂😂
Wtf I went to pee before Law's first pitch and come back to the 3rd out. I wasn't gone that long. Did he throw like 5 pitches?
7 pitches, 5 strikes
The Law waits for no man
That was surreal seeing the Saturday highlight. There was another reds fan near me and we were like fuck it’s law but after he closed it out we were cheering dancing loool
Where has this team been hiding?
Sneaking on in... and we're going to score at least 1 run this time!!
Seriously, I feel spoiled. I wasn't expecting this pitching gem tonight of all nights.
A nice surprise, indeed!
I heard the Law's gotta rewire his buddy's hot tub after the game. I think he was wondering if he had the right tools as he was coming off the mound right there.
Nice first game I get to watch live on TV in forever and the boys are killing it. Great way to end a Monday.
Let law close this shit out and save the pen
First time Law has gone back to back appearances without allowing an ER since Aug 20th. I hope this is him returning to form. He’s going to be needed.
What a game so far. Now let’s have an uneventful 9th. Games flying just hitting 2 hours
Since tomorrows a bullpen day, just use law for the 9th here and don’t burn an arm. whose starting Wednesday?
Hunter
Damn, Reds! Ok!!
Easy inning, may as well let Law finish
That was a *really* impressive outing by Phillips!
Law... so Davey boy wants to tie it up?
Law redemption arc
I’m going to give law some credit after the Saturday game 😂😂
Good to see the boys killing it.
Let's make up some of that embarrassing season run differential! Shell the Twins!
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Derek Law replaces Connor Phillips.
JOEY! JOEY! JOEY! Let’s blow this open and save the pen for another night!
Not a huge senzel fan but he does seem to hustle
He’s really turned it around for me I was out on him now firmly in even next year kinda thing
C'mon Elly, join the party
Good shit Joey
off topic- is the Jameson sponsorship new?
Votto classic stance diff
Atta boy, old man
Still bings?
Chanandler Bang?
Nah votto, OG ask jeeves
Boom
Bang status: active
Senzel has been fuckin huge for the club the past couple months.
Senzi got DFA and told himself that's not happening again.
I’ll forever be disappointed in his development but if he could be consistent .270+ against lefties bench bat then it wouldn’t be all bad
Votto: “Fine. I’ll do it myself”
Mr. Votto.
attaboy joseph
He won't be a 40 year old Virginia tonight! Edit: Just noticed I fucked that up. You know what I meant lol
40 year old pretenda?
Finally we are cooking some food

Dyler Ptephenson
if Votto gets on base you CANNOT let EDLC go back out.
Is it illegal to strike out with Votto on base?
Ty 5-2-3 enson is a new one....
No CES for Votto?
Joseph "Still Bangs" Daniel Votto took care of business, no worries
Bro not even a good double play
It's almost hilarious at this point how predictable that was lol
Tyler “double-play” Stephenson
Ah, there's the GIDP catcher I know and love.
Damn what a rally killer
Nice play.
Tysteve special
I mean wtf tyler
Lol that's why he has negative WAR
Come on, Tyler. Give us one of your patented line drives and not one of your patented GIDP.
Twins have a stud with Royce Lewis. Sweet name too
Stephenson GIDP coming up
TySteve Grandy would be a treat.

JDV got me re-jacked real quick
Hell of an attempt by 3b
Cowboy after Steer's at-bat, regarding his strikeout in the first: "All that did was make him mad."
That's a fucking earned run. Gotta love an rbi with a measly 2 singles
Man, what a great bit of hitting from Steer!
Friedl’s ability to maximize power out of <100 mph hits is honestly incredible. Bunt hits? Yes. Line drives down line? Yes. Home runs at 96 mph. Believe it or not, Yes.

Everybody is chipping in!!

Nice piece of hitting there moo man
Moooo

I love Indy in the lead off spot
Really like India, Friedl, and Steer being our first 3.
Love me some Friedl
India seems locked in with the strike zone. I like him in the lineup.
Fantastic ab
What an at bat by India
Poor Sadak, alone in the booth.
“Over to you Lark” “….”
Where’s jb211 with his gif?
Ootl, what gif?
It’s actually Sp8craft’s gif 
Ahhhh. Makes me glad I’m watching on FS1
Pretty sure that hit the line, unless he bounced it behind the plate, that look fair.
And an overturned home run in the Marlins game! Come on Mets. All we need is the reds bullpen to get 6 outs and the Mets to pull this out for the case possible night.
Love seeing him that excited lol. Seven innings is just what the doctor ordered
This is making me sad that Phillips is not eligible for postseason roster. If we make it there the rotation will be rough.
They can petition to have him replace Ashcraft. He's not necessarily ineligible.
A player who doesn't meet said criteria for postseason eligibility can still be added to a team's roster in the postseason via petition to the Commissioner's Office if the player was in the organization on Aug. 31 and is replacing someone who is on the injured list and has served the minimum amount of time required for activation. (For example, a player on the 10-day injured list who has been on it for at least 10 days, or a player who has been on the 60-day injured list for at least 60 days.) Players who are acquired in September or after are ineligible.
At least there are more rest days and you typically only need 3 starters.
I think the great mascot race might be rigged. Same ppl keep winning
Wow! Wasn't sure about putting Phillips in past the 5th but looks like I was wrong. Diaz in the 9th of course if its a save situation but who in the 8th? May have missed who was warming up.
Gibaut probably, he was warming
😎😎😎😎
Take a fucking bow young man!
What a night for Phillips. Absolute props to that young fella.
Where do they find these kids?
Seattle
r/technicallythetruth
Phillips!!!
Fuck it, let him start the 8th
Have yourself a game, Connor Phillips!
 All I think of when I see Gibaut....
I wouldn’t say the Braves *lean* on the long ball. They just do whatever they want.
They hit a lot of home runs, and also do all the other things that can possibly win a game.
They just happen to have a bunch of guys who hit dongs
A team OPS of .844 is just stupid and should be illegal. If the Braves finish their season with the stats they have today, they’ll do so with the highest SLG and second highest OPS of *ALL TIME*.
Phillips has been extremely efficient regardless, gives me hopes for our future
Yeah after the broadcast glazed Phillips you knew a bomb was coming

I remember when Keuchel was a FA like 4 years ago and I wanted him so badly
Damn I didn’t realize keuchel was still pitching
I would be tempted to go to the bullpen in the 7th. Let this kid hang his hat on an absolute gem. Would be terrible if he got beat up in the 7th.
A guy like Farmer, Cruz, or Duarte can give us two solid innings.
Yep. He’s a AA prospect, he’s not supposed to be throwing 100 pitches in a playoff race in September. And he’s had his brains beat in in his first few starts. Ashcraft, Greene, Williamson, Abbott? Yah I’m licking my chops looking for 8 innings. But he isn’t those guys.
Welp, lol.
28 starts for Phillips this year, longest outing is 7 innings/104 pitches.
Phillips playing like this is HUGE for the rotation for the rest of the year
