    Tale of two Aarons, he gets ahaead yet again with 2 straight strikes, then falls behind with stuff out of the zone. Where did the guy from May go?

    Sullivan grounds into a half-Casey. 1-1 going to the bottom of the fifth. ERA watch at 4.01 now.

    Jennings has been better than decent up to this point, but I expect this to be the inning.

    Just kidding. I didn't even see it.
    The ball was headed toward the left field corner. It looked like a web gem catch; we'll see if it makes the cut.

    I've never payed much attention to it, but I wonder if other tall players(Frank Thomas, Richie Sexson for example) get the same low strike calls as Dunn?

    Accept for number of pitches, Jennings and Harang have the exact same line...

    5IP, 3 hits, 1r, 1BB, 5 Ks

    1-1 heading to the sixth

    EDIT: does this mean the Reds and Rockies are equally bad?

    The Jack Nicklaus finale today got me thinking...

    ..if regular people, like you or I, use golf as a recreational activity when we have time away from work, what do professional golfers do?

    I totally agree with you, but I really think he has.

    I don't watch those others players enough to know.

    I don't think so.


    End of 6: Jennings 99-59, Harang 92-64

    Anyone telling Adam to change needs to be fired.

    I've leaving for the beach tomorrow. Hopefully Randa, Aurilia, and/or Casey are doning new uniforms when I get back.

    Oh, and Dunn better still be a Cincinnati Red; if not, I will catch some crabs(not those kind of crabs!) and stick them down Obie's underwear.

    Adam had a really nice double in the bottom of the 6th. Then Wily Mo got on due to an error and Adam moved to 3rd.

    And Jason swung at the first pitch for a fielder's choice out.
