    What happened?

    A long time since the Reds have been successful with runner on 3rd and less than two outs, but this time they are as Votto grounds to to first. Defense is the difference in this game so far, with the throw out at home by the Reds and the weak defensive catching by the Braves. Today the Reds take advantage of the SB. Last night they didn't. Cozart did what Stubbs and Lewis failed to do last night.

    Although it appeared that a safe Heyward was called out, Gomes made his play and the blame would have gone to Hanigan who was in good position, but made the mistake of reaching way toward the ball and having to make a long sweep tag instead of letting the ball come to him and making a quick tag.

    Uggla hits a soft fly ball that lands 3 ft in front of Jonny. He probably didn't have to move 10 ft to catch it.

    Big unproductive out by AGon.

    What in the world was going on w/ Hanigan?? He fell down backwards before the ball ever got to the plate?

    Patented mental breakdown by Bailey. Gives up 2-run single by........Derek Lowe. SMMFH

    Terrific

    Bailey does a nice job getting Heyward & McCann to leave the bases loaded. Reds need a long inning to get Bailey some rest.

    Gomes is good.

    Reds get the lead-off hitter on again, but Dusty eschews the steal attempt by Lewis, who was successful last night, and Gomes destroys the inning with the 5-4-3 DP. Reds fall behind the 1 run per inning pace it seems it will take today to win the game.

    Nice bunt Homer....this team is like the fuckin' Bad News Bears.
  • mhs95_06
    Lead-off hitter on again for the 3rd straight inning, and Homer bunts into a DP to destroy the 3rd for the Reds offense.

    After 3 innings, Lowe 32 and Homer 67 pitches!

    NOOOOOOOOO!!! Cozart hurt...
  • mhs95_06
    One of Votto's unconventional throws costs the Reds! Is Janish eligible to come back up yet?
  • se-alum
    Yay, more Paul Janish!!
  • mhs95_06
    I bet Cozart is out longer than Pujols. Votto's throw was with little power, because of his throwing style, and McClouth beat it and it tailed into the runner injuring Cozart's glove wrist.

    Fielder's wrong choice is the proper scoring decision. The error was in Votto's mid which is not allowed to be scored as an error in the scoring system.

    Votto now so scared to hit the runner, he pulls Renteria off 2nd on a DP ball.

    No chance to double up Heyward there.
  • mhs95_06
    Freeman makes a great play to keep the Reds lead-off hitter from reaching for the 4th straight inning.

    This team shows no emotion whatsoever.

    Like I said, Bad News Bears. My 8 yr. old niece could make that catch Fred Lewis.
