Also possible that he took off because nobody was paying attention. Base stealers are often given props for taking advantage of a situation like that, and it can cause a pitcher to get out of his comfort zone. Especially if the manager or pitching coach is rolling their eyes in the dugout. I agree a straight steal is kind of stupid, but perhaps the pitcher, catcher, and/or fielders were asleep at the wheel.

Guess or wish? To me it's a wish, but with the AS break comming, it may be 2 weeks before Bronson throws again as they will try to give him an unofficial visit to the DL. But to me, he's done, and we are stuck with the contract, either way Maloney should replace him period.
Could be and if so I guess its fine. I watched Jay Bruce stretch a double into a triple today and was clearly out at 3B if the guy holds onto the ball. The Reds were down 8-1 at the time. You have to go back more than 10 years to remember a time when the Reds weren't stupid on the bases. Makes you wonder if its an organizational issue or not.
All my posts are my opinion - just like yours are. If I forget to state it and you're too dense to see the obvious, look here!

Fellhauer, how many games has he played in so far? 3?
Byron Wiley has been on a tear lately. He made some adjustments after watching Votto and has been on a tear since.
Mark James gives up a couple runs. Now 15-9.
Ezequiel Infante is coming in to pitch and will be making his Single-A debut. He posted a 1.42 ERA and 2 BB/7 K in 6.1 innings with Billings. He had an 0.19 ERA in 47 innings with the DSL Reds last season.
Bats up 3-0 in the 4th of the second game.

I am sitting 3 rows deep right next to first base. Lehr was completely robbed on the Bixler single. No-hitter lost because of it.
