Frazier strikes out looking.
Oof, that was an unfortunate AB.

I was pro-Frazier back then. I didn't care for Juan defensively. The dingers were nice, but I didn't see him hitting for an average or drawing walks. He reminded me of Dunn without the walks. Probably a bad comparison...but that's always what he made me think of. I just think Johnson's the more well rounded complete player. I wish Juan luck....just not TOO much luck. :O)
Nice crowd tonight for a pre-summer-vacation weeknight.
Maholm just outsmarted Frazier in that at bat.
Frazier can't get the run in, K's looking.
Mesoraco grounds out to short. 3-2 Braves after 4.
Frazier has to swing the bat. That is pitiful.
Despite that AB, I hope Mes still gets a lot of time when Hanigan returns. He's got a good approach, needs to develop it.
Francisco is playing third fine for the Braves.
Must admit that Frazier's defense has far exceeded my expectations, at least so far this season.
It's a tough call, I don't think the Reds made a big mistake.
But some of the adverse comments about Francisco on this site have been over the top IMO. He is a very tough hitter against RHP. Against Arroyo at GABP? I'm glad he's not playing tonight.
