Pretty tentative slide there by Heisey at home. Good call by Berry to send him there.

Phillips lines a single to right. 2-1 Reds!

Shut it Hershiser. Who names their kid Orel, anyway?

Hersisher talking about the ballpark giving up runs after a single, double, single. For some reason, it's really bothering me tonight. Are those hits not hits in other ballparks?

I always called him Anal when he pitched for the Dodgers.

The park gives hitters confidence. Supposedly.

The Braves announcers were the worst in that series where we swept them, using the term 'bandbox' about 100 times a night.

No, you don't get it. It's all about the "confidence" that they have at the plate because of the ballpark.

There should be fewer extra-base hits at least in GABP because of the size.

I remember the NYY announcers being beside themselves when they first played there years ago. The Reds beat up on them the first 2 games. Then the Yanks broke out in game 3 and you didnt hear a word about the park.
