GDT 8/10/10-Cardinals (García) at Reds (Cueto) 6:10 CDT

Brandon Phillips has a HR trot?

Everything is up from Garcia pretty much the entire game. That's not a good sign.

Can someone check this for me? A friend told me they saw Phillips hit Yadi in the shin pads in his warm-up swing.

This happened.

The Reds broadcasters mentioned this. Phillips did it really gently -- he does it to the opposing catcher and to the umpire at the start of a game, as a good-matured pleasantry.

FF has made a note of it numerous times, does he normally do it twice?

If I called someone a [expletive], I probably wouldn't pat him on the shoulder. Maybe baseball etiquette is different.

I don't know. Sorry, I didn't know he mentioned it already. I ran to the gas station really quick and missed out on a bunch of posts.

Need a hbp then a dp

GIDP!!! Let's go, another $99.99 for Cardinal Care would be stellar.

the tap seemed meaningless to me. Albert does it all the time. Lots of guys do. It's probably what was said during/after the taps.

after the first time yadie said something and then Phillips did it again

I'd be happy if we get out of this with only one scored.
