Bruce should have let it be a double. It was tagged.

I didn't say that. But there was a time when he would have hauled that thing in. He's not playing a good RF this year.

Eh, not sure about that. The ball was a semi-liner so Bruce didn't have a chance to get back to the wall and time it.
Re: Reds vs. Pirates Saturday 8/4
well he made a good catch of the liner that followed --- sometime I think he is better coming in than going back

Maybe he too is trying to kick the habit of chewing tobacco.
Re: Reds vs. Pirates Saturday 8/4
Good grab there, though. Too bad he put a guy at 3rd and it led to a run.

Re: Reds vs. Pirates Saturday 8/4
It's like he's a softball RF'er now... Everyone is gunning for him. :)
Re: Reds vs. Pirates Saturday 8/4
Glad Jones got out of the way of that one.
Re: Reds vs. Pirates Saturday 8/4
Leake just stinks at home. Solid on the road, though.
Re: Reds vs. Pirates Saturday 8/4
Leake not able to hit the corners...too many balls in the middle of the plate
Re: Reds vs. Pirates Saturday 8/4
Good job leake to battle back!
Re: Reds vs. Pirates Saturday 8/4
They said on radio (I think I have this correct) that Leake's home ERA is the worst of any starter in the NL right now, over 6.00. I did not realize that. He's got to start hitting his spots much better and changing speeds if he's going to be part of the playoff picture.
