If the Reds can pull this off then other teams should watch out. That inning was a HUGE emotion lift for the Reds & Reds fans.

Aside from the homer, that inning had a lot of what I love about baseball. Everyone put the ball in play that inning. Even Freel's out was productive, advancing the runner. Casey going first to third on a hit to right, and then the timely nature of the hits. That's the kind of baseball that gets me excited. Home runs are like the icing on the cake.
AK gets rewarded for his HR by coming out of the game. Come on Miley!
It's good to see a team other than us give up a 6 run inning. (Especially when it was given up to us!)
Mercker on to pitch. 1-2-3 go the Dodgers. 6-3 good guys

Now that's a fine example of how to inspire your players to greatness. Anyone catch Marty's comment about Freel? Something like, "I don't know how you can't play this guy every day."Originally Posted by NCRed
Leadoff double by Dlo
What's gotten into Jimenez today, two hits in two at bats? Could it be contagious?
Beautiful run there, double, sac bunt, and a grounder to score the run. They need to keep doing the little things right so they can score without having to wait for someone to go deep. Those are the things the good offenses do well, score with the long ball and with small ball, instead of being one dimensional.
Now isn't everybody feeling a little bit better?
Enjoy these games, you don't get to many of them, of course we still have Weber time..........................
Wagner struck Kent out. Man, he's going to be really really good. (he's already really good!)
Of course as soon as I post that, he gives up a hit.
Now that was an interesting little tidbit about the triple crown in 1937. Wow, nice play by Wagner just then while I was typing this.
