Update on todays Intrasquad game; Dickerson sprains ankle

This is all compliments of C. Trent Rosecrans, who does an excellent job on his Reds Blog for the Cincinnati Post.


Adam Dunn on Homer Bailey: "I'm on the bandwagon."

Dunn walked against Bailey and saw more pitches than anyone. He said he was surprised at how good Bailey's change-up was. Bailey threw two change-ups to Dunn.

Javier Valentin, who served as Bailey's catcher, said Homer showed "he belongs up here."

(Chris) Dickerson said he turned his ankle and thinks it's OK. He had it tested and they think it's just a sprain. However, as we were talking, his ankle just kept swelling. Yesterday he was really in the discussion about who was the fastest player on the team, and from home to third, he certainly looked like it.

(Josh) Hamilton was 0-2 with a walk, strikeout and fly out. He was also caught stealing. Hamilton got an extra at-bat in the fifth, putting him in the ninth spot and that's when he flied out.

Line score
Russell's Muscles 0 0 0 0 0 0-3-1 (hits by Denorfia and two by (Joey) Votto, including a double, error by Crosby)
Ed's Reds 0 0 1 0 0 1-3-0 (hits by Gonzalez, Castro and Moeller)

The one run was unearned.
