Just hate when a pitcher is so afraid of walking a guy that he grooves a homer.
McCann get three balls on him and got a gift from Bailey.
That and bad 0-2 pitches are irritating.

Putting aside Heisey's "double" from earlier today, I have a question.
Do the Cincinnati Reds ever hit a homer in a road game?
Corky looks like he needs CPR on the bench there.
After 4 innings, Reds 2, Braves 1.
Minor at 72 pitches, 47 strikes.
Bailey at 65 pitches, 48 strikes.

Votto has looked awful in his last 2 at-bats. Reds as a whole have looked awful in their last 9. David may need to make those 2 runs stand up.

The older I get - the better I was
and yes - I hate the Cardinals (Reds fan since 1958)
I miss Raisor
Leaving the bases loaded in the first inning is looking pretty huge right now. Minor has settled down and now Bailey is struggling against the bottom of the order.
Dale Murphy must be being paid by the word
Shoot. And its going to be 3-2 Braves now on that double.
This game is now a problem.
Homer hasn't been hit hard except for the home run, but is now in trouble again. Second and third, no outs, though the pitcher is up.
This could be one of those games that is winnable but only if the offense scores some runs.
Double for Minor and Braves lead.
