Attended 1976 World Series in my Mother's Womb. Attended 1990 World Series Game 2 as a 13 year old. Want to take my son to a a World Series Game in Cincinnati in my lifetime.
was hoping joey would get hit #1000 today, but guess it will have to wait until next year.
Votto looks like a beaten Man. After 4, 1 measly single total.
I just do not see this team winning this Tuesday.
Welsh is right. Votto set two all time season records for a Reds player and deserves kudos. The problem is that once you get past Bruce, who's going to get he and Choo in? Ludwick is normally that guy, but he's still trying to get up to speed. Truth is, even banking on guys like Luddy and the outcasts won't do it. And money is short.

Hate to knitpick, but part of the frustration with this team this season is on full display here in the 5th. Leadoff double followed by two free swingers who hit ground balls to the left side. Hannigan then pops up for the third out and not only do the Reds not score, they don't come close to advancing the runner. Perhaps I was spoiled for years by the Barry Larkin's of the game, but the approach of many hitters in this lineup is frustrating to watch.

99% of all numbers only tell 33% of the story so when looking at the numbers remember that numbers is plural...

Well, they made Cumpton look like an ace...a 9th round pick with a 3.22 era and 1.30 whip at AAA

There is why BH is not the answer in CF next year.

Hamilton looked overmatched on that particular AB.
Too many negative vibes around here. Look on the bright side- the Bears are losing.
