Arroyo gets through the top of second without incident.
0-0 game, middle of two.
For those of you wondering, Marty B has quietly begun his whispering campaign against Bruce. Marty B was displeased over the K with the sacks full.

Dickerson with the bunt single off the tough lefty. Nice play from Dickerson.
Marty and Jeff like them some Dickerson.
Ground ball moves Dick to 2b. I missed the other out, Arroyo is up with two gone.
Arroyo flies to RF.
Actually, that was apparently the second out, Marty B misspoke a minute ago. No one will criticize him for that in front of a regional audience, so he gets a pass. Unlike poor Reds who displease him.
Marty B just said "tired old Ed Smith" for approximatley the 454025th time since coming on the air today.
Taveras up.
Taveras flies out.
After two innings, 0 - 0.
Single for Tampa starts the 3rd, a blooper blooperson for Rey Olmedo.
Kazmir unequal to the task of laying down a bunt, Ks.
One out, one on.
Arroyo sounds sharper than he was in the first inning.
Arroyo induces a nice 5-4-3 DP, 0-0 middle of three.
Reds' starting pitching has been right frisky in the last week. Hope we are not looking back on this as fool's gold when the games start next week.
Nasty change-up from Kazmir sends Hairston back to the bench, muttering to himself.
One down, Votto up.
Infield single for Votto up the middle, puts him on 1b for Phillips.
Phllips flies out to LF, Bruce up with two outs and runner on 1b.
jay bruce, already tired of marty b starting to slag him, homers to RF, driving home Votto.
2-0 Reds.
Jay Bruce will eventually be just fine against lefties. He's 22. Marty B, and anyone else who is "concerned", needs to chill and let him grow into the very good ballplayer he is going to be.
Rosales flies out to end the inning.
2-0 Reds after 3.
Hairston commits an error to start the 4th at SS. Ground single follows. And then another single to RF.
Runners at 1st and 2nd, no outs.
2-1 Reds.
