Reds at Pirates - March 21

Afternoon folks, Doug Kaid here from "The Mac" in Bradenton. I'm here blogging today, so that must mean the Reds are in town. I think that makes five Reds games I've blogged from this spring. I've done as many Reds game as any other team this spring.

Here are the lineups, including a last-minute change:

Reds
Cory Patterson
Jeff Keppinger
Ken Griffey Jr.
Brandon Phillips
Adam Dunn
Edwin Encarnacion
Joey Votto
Javier Valentin
Aaron Harang
No DH today. It's getting closer to Opening Day, and i guess they want the pitchers to get some ABs. We're also seeing a lot more regulars and a the pitchers are going more innings. Little more than a week left until every heads north.

Pirates
Nate McLouth
Freddy Sanchez
Jason Bay
Adam LaRoche
Ryan Doumit
Xavier Nady
Jose Bautista
Luis Rivas - A last minute sub at SS for Jack Wilson, who was having asthma problems today
Tom Gorzelanny

Tim for lunch. I'll check back soon.
