    Other than talking about himself too much I do too. MLB network has a great crew even without Larkin now.

    I think that was a 2-2 hanging slider that was belt high right in the middle.

    The Reds put together a rally for the first time in 3 weeks, and we're gonna miss how it ends.

    Did anybody else's Fox feed switch over to the Phils-Pads game? Both Parkersburg and Huntington did for me!

    just in time to see Gomes with a K chasing one out of the zone. couldn't time it any better.

    VERY GOOD NEWS! Cozart hyper-extension, x-rays negative!
  • dave
    God I hope that's all it is. Could still be some ligament damage though.

    Back to Back nice innings for the Redlegs!!

    For the 2nd consecutive game, the Reds score 3 in the 6th to go from behind to ahead! Will they be able to hold on for the win today? A difference is today the starting pitcher was out before they took the lead, so today it is all on the bullpen to protect the lead. Braves line-up with the run of consecutive lefties sets up perfectly for Bray to go thru them one time, and Chapman another.

    And Frazier following in Cozart's footsteps by starting his MLB career with a multi game hitting streak, and has matched Cozart's career RBI total in only 2 games(one start).

    Frazier didn't get a hit in his first game earlier in the year.

    Loved seeing Drew Stubbs bunt. Could this be the thing that gets him going? Teams know he will bunt, so they pitch him away away on first pitch....he starts 1-0 then jumps all over the fast ball on the next pitch. God I hope so.

    Glad I can't watch this debacle. Looks like Scott Proctor is up to his usual tricks.

    Holy offense

    We saw flashes of it last year in a couple games, we'll know over the next few if he "gets it" or not. It sure would make things more fun to watch.

    I stand corrected! I forgot he was up for 1 game and one AB late in May.

    Today and the last nine games have been about typical for the Reds. They excel against the worst pitchers which are typically relief pitchers that come in when their team is trailing. They typically have problems with all but the worst pitchers.

    The last 9 games the Reds are 4-5 having outscored their opponents by 31-25, and for the 100 games so far this season they are 49-51 and have outscored their opponents 465-430.
