Jeff CarrHOST
It's interesting, too, because the Reds, these last few years, I think you've probably heard this, but in case you haven't, the Reds have been more of a stuff-over-command team.
Jeff CarrHOST
And I was curious to see, I actually talked with our friends, Justin and Jeff over at lockdown guardians, by the way, lockdown guardians, great daily coverage, just like lockdown reds talking about the Cleveland guardians.
Jeff CarrHOST
But I talked about their talked about what Cleveland's philosophy is with their pitching staff.
Jeff CarrHOST
And they said that their stuff over command too.
Jeff CarrHOST
We need to get strike one, strike one, strike one.
Jeff CarrHOST
They've got to focus on strike one.
Jeff CarrHOST
Chris Welsh, Sam LeCure, Jeff Brantley all preached it to no end.
Jeff CarrHOST
The Reds were not very good at that.
Al MichaelsHOST
it's 3-1.

Tim McCarverPANELIST
The right foot would have been there clearly in time.
Tim McCarverPANELIST
Had he had that straight-in slide, but nonetheless a spectacular play by Tony Phillips.
Al MichaelsHOST
Here's Henderson with Jeff Brantley, the new pitcher, in the count of 1-0.
Al MichaelsHOST
Speaking of Tony Phillips, might as well pick up a couple of notes from last night.

speaker_16UNKNOWN
And why should heartburn take the fun out of the game? Relief.
speaker_16UNKNOWN
You know how to spell it.
Al MichaelsSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Jeff Brantley comes in to pitch, and the first man he faces is Terry Steinbach.
Al MichaelsSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Brantley will hit in the number eight spot, and as we had suggested, Candy Maldonado comes into the game in a double switch in right field, batting ninth, which means Maldonado, and there he is, taking Sheridan's spot in the outfield, will lead off in the bottom of the fifth inning.
Joe MorganSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
His, his left knee did not bend as it normally does, and he actually straightened it out at the end because he couldn't put any more pressure on it.
Joe MorganSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Well, we're gonna get Jeff Brantley coming in, and he will get as much time as he needs to warm up.
Joe MorganSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
And there you see Roger Craig probably telling him to make sure you take your time and get completely loose out here because it's a cool evening, or I should say cold, and a little windy out here, so you want to make sure that you're completely loose before you start throwing.
Joe MorganSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
But, you know, as usual, the Giants have been able to fight through all the adversity they've had so far this year, and I'm sure he'll, someone else will pick up the slack if Donnie's out for a long period of time.
Joe MorganSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Is it as effective as his other one?
Duane KuiperSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
You know, those things, you know, anytime you're involved where you have to use your legs as much as a pitcher does, you know, you're always, always in a position where if they bother you, if you've had injuries before, you know, those things can come back and, and haunt you.
Duane KuiperSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
And in this case, for the Giants, leading two to nothing, have to go into their bullpen in the second inning in the hopes that Jeff Brantley can go four or five strong innings, and then you get another guy in there.
Joe MorganSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
You know, we were talking about Will Clark in the batting race.
Al MichaelsSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
[bat cracks] And it's 3-1.
Al MichaelsSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Jeff Brantley throwing in the bullpen because Craig, among other things, has to look ahead in this inning.
Al MichaelsSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Kennedy is the number six hitter, then Litton, then Nixon, then the pitcher's spot.
Al MichaelsSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
[bat cracks] Little bouncer to the right side, and McGuire is right there to glove it, step on the bag, and down to second goes Williams, and that one was very much according to Hoyle.

Al MichaelsSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Another look on the bang bang play at second, just in time, because of the hook slide by Nixon

[crowd cheering] Now back live, that's in for a strike, and the count one and one.
Jim PalmerPANELIST
Well, Mick Bell, well, Taggy O' thought he started his wind up, but he started all and stopped.
Jim PalmerPANELIST
Of course, Jeff Brantley will tell you, "I stepped off before I broke my hands or I stopped my wind up." Does put a runner in scoring position.
Jim PalmerPANELIST

Steven OffenbakerHOST
On the TV side I think the play-by-play is great.
Steven OffenbakerHOST
But I'll tell you where the Reds really just have an above average group and that is in the, the analysis from both Cowboy Jeff Brantley and from the o- [laughs] the crafty lefty himself, Chris Welsh.
Steven OffenbakerHOST
Both of those guys are tremendous at their jobs and they're, they're pretty interchangeable.
Steven OffenbakerHOST
Cowboy on the radio or on TV, Chris Welsh on the radio or on TV.
Steven OffenbakerHOST
These guys They're absolutely amazing.
Steven OffenbakerHOST
Chris is another guy that's been just tremendously generous.
Steven OffenbakerHOST
That camera swinging around the third base side really gave a much better view of that right field corner on, where on the TV broadcast, sometimes you'd miss the play, what was going on down there in that corner, 'cause the, the camera angle just couldn't quite get it done.
Steven OffenbakerHOST
So I like what Major League Baseball did with that, with that programming.
Al MichaelsHOST
And it's 3-1.

That's Everton.
Mike SchoppHOST
That's what I should do, just root for the Reds, and never know who's on the team, and never wanna watch a game, and being mad at Jeff Brantley.
Mike SchoppHOST
That's, that's what I should do, you know, because he's always telling you the thing that they would've said 30 years ago.
Mike SchoppHOST
Is he on their broadcasts? Yeah.
