Well said Doug.
And imagine being an Oriole fan so far (they're 2-15). They seem to have games like this one every single day with baserunning blunders, lazy play, and no offense at all. The kicker is that they're getting a ton of quality starts from their starters and they either can't score runs or the bullpen blows it. They're also missing their key leadoff guy (Brian Roberts) and have had a few other injuries take out some of their key guys. It could be a lot worse for us than it actually is so I'm not crawling out on any ledges right now. I hope this game today lights a fire under the Reds players and they start playing much better baseball. I fully expect to see a better team on the field tomorrow and I will be extremely upset if they play lazy, uninspired baseball at any other time this season.
