Sixth Inning

The Reds own a commanding 1-0 lead over the Pirates, who have just one hit through five full innings of play.

Some good news for the Buccos - Zach Duke threw two scorless innings. That means Duke, Ian Snell, Tom Gorzelanny and Paul Maholm have a 0.00 ERA through eight innings this spring.

Not too shabby.

Catcher Jason Jaramillo, looking to earn a spot on the roster as Ryan Doumit's back up,just threw out Chris Valaika trying to steal second.

Hey man - when it's 1-0, and the crowd is dead, the air is chilled and the Pirates and Reds are playing the first of 150 games this spring, that is as exciting as it gets.
