Crap...
False. Until the 6 ER performance, his FIP was 3.00. He was having a good season, overall, until that time. He'd only given up runs in five of 25 appearances. Further, despite the blow-up in one game, his OPS against is a respectable .700. Take away that one game, and it was in the .500's. That is actually a very good season.

Carpenter hit in the back with a 99 MPH fastball. It's first and second.
That didn't hit him.
I'm not going to do it again, I've posted Broxton's stats in other threads.
He hasn't had a good year. His K rate is down. His ERA is poor. His LOB rate is poor. His velocity is down.
He showed signs of improvement his last times out. But this is not a lights out reliever, not so far this season.

We're good again!
everybody unclench your cheeks.

Reds win! Big bounce back win.
Beltran out at first, that's it! Reds have won 4-2! This one belongs to the Reds!
Cards are arguing, but the fireworks are blasting.
seriously -- did that touch him?
The older I get - the better I was
and yes - I hate the Cardinals (Reds fan since 1958)
I miss Raisor
Reds win, and the Cardinals are crying.

chapman has not been sharp, i swear every win against the Cards the Reds have to scrap, claw and fight and rarely get an easy win like they would get over us
