    Simon should get an error on that. Phillips would have made an out.

    Yep but the folks who are so anxious to write him off and I don't mean RedsZone folks, are going to blow it way out of proportion.

    I've seen Votto take hacks as bad as that haha. He obviously figured out it was going to be a strike and tried to fight it off. Didn't work lol

    For the record, I was never and am still not a Choo fan. I'm much happier with Hamilton in the lineup and playing Defense in CF than Choo in both. I can't stand horrible Defense at important Defensive positions, and Choo was the worst CF in all of baseball. You'll not get any Hamilton bashing from me. I love that he's on the team. I'd rather have him splitting time in CF with Heisey, but I'm still glad that he's here over Choo.

    I doubt it very much. You'd have to prove that one to me.

    I can't believe the success we've gotten from Simon as a Starter. Totally unexpected.

    What do REDS' fans around Cincy gleen as a return date for Chapman now that he's allowed to pitch to live batting practice? The REDS aren't saying anything, but hometown folks tend to be able to gleen more out of it than anyone anywhere else can figure out.

    That strike 2 breaking ball to Rizzo was nasty!

    Not that he is Votto, but Votto has some of those from time to time trying to protect.

    Even with the wind blowing in this much, I still think the REDS' score five runs today.

    I've seen some of those, but with how much Hamilton crouches at the plate, it's that pose that makes the swing look so silly.

    I remember one from Phillips where he was standing upright and the ball was already in the glove when he began his swing.

    Ludwick with one off the foot. Ouch. Our lineup is injuring itself while in the batter's box first time through.
