...from San Diego. The Reds know very well what happens when you combine first-place talent with last-place luck, and we're apparently going to learn the answer once again in 1973. Score 4 runs in the first against Ron Reed, Tom Seaver is on the mound.... Reed goes the distance for the W, Reds choke hard twice and the bullpen loses it in the bottom of the ninth. There's nothing very unusual about that outcome, but what IS different in 1973 is the new PBP report (attached for your viewing pleasure) which logs every dice roll and split card so that the Reds' ever-so-good fortune can be documented for the ages (hey, we have to enjoy our season SOMEHOW)... Alan --------------------- Extra base hit to center for Rose John Grubb is trying to get to it This might be stretched into a triple! No... he decides to hold up (Roll: 1-5) (Split: HR 1-11, Double 12-20) (Split card selected- 20) Base hit to left for Driessen The 3rd base coach gives the green light... The throw is cut off... And that allows the run to score (Roll: 2-7) He can't get the lead Home Run That is Joe Morgan's 1st home run of the year. (Roll: 1-8) Single (Roll: 2-7) (Split: Double 1-3, Single 4-20) (Split card selected- 20) He can't get the lead Fly Out To Center Fielder (Roll: 5-9) Ground Out To Short Stop Nice play by D.Thomas X-CHART INFO: Pos-SS Range-4 Split-12 COMPARE: 1-G1 2-G1 3-G2 4-G3 5-G3# (Roll: 4-10) Base hit to center for Tolan The 3rd base coach gives the green light...
