Weather map looks forbearing
Could have played two today under beautiful skies. Now will they even get one in? Reds have had almost as much trouble with rain at home (postponements, delays, etc.) the past two seasons as they have had with clutch hits. Heck, even the Fourth of July game was rained out last year.

Again? Guess God reads USA Today
"I know a lot about the law and various other lawyerings."
Hitters who avoid outs are the funnest.
7:30 First Pitch.
any word on Devin's return?

Last I heard is that he's on the 15-day DL and will return the first day eligible.Originally Posted by Jefferson24
Would like to see Reds get off to a good start tonight. The Atlanta series was a bummer, then a rain out. Get out ahead here.
Let's go Simon.
Devin isn't eligible to be activated until May 10th.
Did somebody eat a box of powdered donuts over Bonifacio's head just before the game?!?

Strikeout by Simon to start things off.
Bonifacio took an ugly swing. He must be terrible.
When all is said and done more is said than done.
Two down, Kalish flies to BH in short center.
Sprayed-on pine tar not dirty yet. Seriously.
When all is said and done more is said than done.
Rizzo up. Strike one swinging on a slider. Then called strike two on a fastball. Simon has good stuff. Foul. Bounces one up, 1-2. Soft liner to Votto, nothing across, 11 pitches for Simon.
