Good post. Frazier that inning got a hit by going to right center.

Then Heisey pulls a double play ball on the ground to third.

Reds righty hitters do not use the whole field. Jay Bruce can hit that way, he's a powerhouse. These righty hitters cannot.

Hesiey has always been like this....and I think you pointed out his terrible ability to take a walk..let alone work a count.

You bet if he was brought up in the Cardinal farm system....someone would have had him doing pushups when he did not use the whole field or have an Idea, Any Idea of what to do in his AB's. Or he would not have lasted too much longer with them.

Double play gets us out of the inning.

seeing how Beltre just scored says it all.. The Rangers KNOW how to Win no matter who they loose.. Same with the Cardinals.. I pray the Reds will get to that stage.. I just hope I live long enough to see it happen!!

4-6-3 DP. 4-0 Rangers after 4

Can we please score a run now....please?

You make your own luck.

Untrue, you do your best to put yourself in position for things to go your way. Sometimes the ball bounces the other teams way no matter how you are playing. Not that the Reds are currently doing themselves any favors, but they also aren't getting a single break either.

Yeah, the right handed hitters on this team are a major issues. Just a group of hackers.

Mesoraco grounds out to short

Just kind of feels like this might not be the Reds year. They've played admirably for most of the season, but they look like they've been losing steam for a little bit of time now. They've done well despite not having Cueto and a couple injuries, but it kinda seems like all of that is catching up to them now.

Cozart singles to center

[Tony Cloninger]

I do not know what this means but I am laughing at anything that kid always does.

[ProfessorTofty]

Some production from the bottom of the order there; Cozart on with a base hit.

Don't read the game threads that often, and I know we are struggling, but man, you would think we are 16 under right now.

WM, I must inform you that according to Redszone standards, this post needs to be 35% more hyperbole and 66% more angry. Bonus points if you can work in a 'this team was DOA'.
