1-2-3 go the Reds after Brandon flies out to right center.

This just means that there a lot of great fielding CF'ers in the league right now, and a lot of crappy fielding 1B.
According to UZR, Joey has been 3 runs better than the average 1B, while Choo has been 17 runs worse than the average CF'er. It doesn't mean that Votto has been 20 runs better defensively than Choo.
This is why adding UZR to WAR is flawed.

79 pitches for Burnett through 5.
Not that Pittsburgh's bullpen is a weakness, but the good news is Burnett is around 80 pitches after 5 innings...
It looked early like they would get Burnett out fairly early but he's now on pace to get through 7 innings, unfortunately.

Ugh. This byplay is nauseating.
I thought Grande retired. I didn't realize that he was the second coming of Favre.

Fly out to center, ground out to short. 2 down for Homie.
casey saying pettitte should be in the HOF. What?
Just call me Legs
Carpenter gets his 54th dbl to pass Musial for most by LHB'er but is stranded. Still 2-1
Dang. 2 out walk to the pitcher. Homer's kicking himself on that one.
I didn't get the 2-2 offspeed pitch. With the pitcher up and no one on base, just go after him with the old No. 1 and make him hit it.

Marty saying the umps have warnings for both benches not only tonight and tomorrow but also in place for next weekend.
Seems a bit much.
The older I get - the better I was
and yes - I hate the Cardinals (Reds fan since 1958)
