janitor06 Posted January 2, 2007 Author Share Posted January 2, 2007 IGAWA THROWS NO-HITTER IN PLAYOFF GAME NLDS Game 1: Mets at Reds Reds pitcher Kei Igawa became the 2nd pitcher in Major League history to throw a no-hitter in the playoffs, blanking the Mets in 10 innings, 1-0. Igawa scored his own winning run in the bottom of the 10th inning on a Scott Hatteberg double to give the Reds the win. Igawa would have had a perfect game, but Adam Dunn dropped a fly ball in the 8th inning. That resulted in the Mets' only baserunner. Igawa threw a no-hitter at the Mets to open the playoffs. Igawa scores the winning run Tom Glavine threw 8 shutout innings for the Mets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

janitor06 Posted January 2, 2007 Author Share Posted January 2, 2007 ARROYO SHUTS DOWN METS NLDS Game 2: Mets at Reds The Mets very nearly were no-hit for a second night in a row. Cliff Floyd broke up Bronson Arroyo's no-hit bid in the 8th inning, but the Mets could only get one more hit--a Jose Reyes single in the 9th--and the Reds won 6-0 to take a 2 games to 0 lead in the division series. Arroyo had a perfect game until the 6th, and lost it the same way Igawa lost his perfect game: an error. Bronson Arroyo shut down the Mets almost as well as Igawa did last night Pedro Martinez was rocked early by the Reds Brandon Phillips drives in a couple runs in the 1st inning Edwin Encarnacion's throw sails wide of 1st base, downgrading Arroyo's perfect game to just a no-hitter Cliff Floyd ends Arroyo's no-hit bid in the 8th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also today, the Los Angeles Angels swept the Boston Red Sox out of the playoffs, and the St. Louis Cardinals swept the Colorado Rockies. The Yankees beat the Twins to avoid a sweep. Next step for the Reds: NLCS vs. division rival St. Louis Cardinals.

David Ross drives in 2 runs with a double. He later scored in the inning. The Reds sent Chris Carpenter to the showers in the 2nd inning.

janitor06 Posted January 2, 2007 Author Share Posted January 2, 2007 REDS CRUSH CARDS YANKEES EVEN UP SERIES Kei Igawa did not throw another no-hitter, but he was solid as the Reds pounded the Cardinals 10-2. Ken Griffey Jr. broke the game open in the 6th with a big 3-run home run. The Cardinals now head home down 2 games to none. Yankees even up series The Yankees, after dropping Game 1, have won Game 2 by a score of 6-2, and head for Anaheim with the series tied at 1 game apiece. Dunn update It is still not known if Adam Dunn will be able to play in the World Series, if the Reds advance. In case he can't play, the Reds have told Louisville outfielder Chris Denorfia to be ready to join the team for the Fall Classic. They cannot add to the roster during a series, but they are allowed to before the World Series starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

janitor06 Posted January 2, 2007 Author Share Posted January 2, 2007 REDS WIN IN 14 INNINGS LOSE GRIFFEY TO INJURY The Reds won Game 3 of the NLCS in extra innings, 6-4, on their second try. They scored in the 11th inning, and then with 2 outs in the bottom of the 9th, Albert Pujols homered off Gary Majewski to tie the game. They got 2 runs in the top of the 12th, and brought in Elizardo Ramirez for a save. Ramirez set down the Cards in order, to put the Reds a game away from the World Series. With Dunn out, and now Griffey out, the Reds want to end this series ASAP. Griffey hurt: The Reds lost Ken Griffey Jr. to a sprained knee--the same type of injury Adam Dunn suffered in Game 2. Dunn is still likely to try to play in the World Series--Griffey is extremely doubtful. The Reds have put the official call out to Chris Denorfia--he will be added to their World Series roster should they win the NLCS. They are likely to call on Ray Olmedo as well if both Dunn and Griffey are unable to play. If not Olmedo, they may add pitcher Craig Hansen, who had been left off the playoff roster in favor of Kyle Lohse. Pujols ties the game back up in the 11th Brandon Phillips doubles in 2 runs in the top of the 12th Elizardo Ramirez looked sharp in his postseason debut.

janitor06 Posted January 2, 2007 Author Share Posted January 2, 2007 SHORT-HANDED REDS DROP GAME 4 Eric Milton had a sub-par night, and the Cardinals scored enough runs late to hold off the Reds, 6-2, and deny them a sweep. Due to injuries and the rule that you cannot make roster adjustments during a playoff series, the Reds are left with only Chad Moeller, Javier Valentin and Juan Castro on the bench--Jeff Conine and Andy Abad have been thrust into starting roles in place of the injured Adam Dunn and Ken Griffey Jr. If the Reds manage to make it to the World Series, Chris Denorfia will be joining the team.

janitor06 Posted January 2, 2007 Author Share Posted January 2, 2007 REDS WIN NL PENNANT The Reds took Game 5 of the NLCS by a score of 7-1 to beat the Cardinals in 5 and capture the NL pennant. Elizardo Ramirez pitched well and delivered a couple hits at the plate. Todd Coffey and Ryan Franklin closed the game out. Franklin had some trouble in the 9th, but he also had a 7-run cushion. The Reds await their AL opponents: the Yankees won today to take a 3 games to 2 lead in the ALCS, which is heading back to New York. Elizardo Ramirez kicked off the scoring himself, with a 2nd inning double. Injured OF Adam Dunn cheers his teammates on from the dugout Andy Abad snares Chris Shelton's line drive to end the game It's celebration time for the Reds.
