    It's over, done with...just looking for the players to fight hard from here.

    Good effort while seeing the players sticking together is all I care about for the rest of the season.

    So, I'm looking for good quotes and things like this:

    Nice defense kept Cueto and the Reds a run behind most of the night. After Stanton's homer, Casey McGehee slugged a double and was thrown out by Hamilton at the plate trying to score on a Garrett Jones single to center field. In the fourth inning with a runner on second base and two outs, right fielder Chris Heisey's diving catch robbed Adeiny Hechavarria of a hit and saved another run from scoring.

    Hopefully this one works as well, and they can go on a run they like did after your posts following the Toronto debacle.

    While things look bleak, we have actually have a +11 run differential, better than the Cards and the Pirates.

    We are 5.5 games out of first and 3.5 out of a wild card spot.

    FWIW.

    Go out, play the games, and see what happens.

    They are also given to sudden and unaccountable changes of mood or behavior.
