He does, however, strike out Garrett Atkins. There's a guy the Reds should be glad they didn't acquire.
Weathers gives up back-to-back Hrs to make it 5-3.

Weathers is done. Has been for a while. I'm tired of seeing him give up leads, allow opponents to break a tie game open, etc. At this point in his career, he is where Mike Stanton was before the Reds got rid of him---washed up!
Good ol' Stormy...proving yet again why he survived another trade deadline
Weathers 4 closer
Reds best pinch hitter Paul Janish strikes out to end the game.
Reds lose 5-3
There was a game tonight?
Why was Hanigan hitting 8th in that lineup?

Every year I say "why Weathers" and he turns in a passable year in the bullpen to make me look silly. This year we might have gone a Bridge Too Far with him.
Was at the game last night. That was one dead, boring, lifeless game with the exception of the Votto/Phillips homers, the well-endowed young lady that walked around our section a bunch and the warm Cinnamon bread-sticks. We left at whatever inning that was when Weathers came in. By the time we got from the Champions Club to the crosswalk by the Freedom Center he had given up 2 runs. Good times!
That really was a mind numbing experience.
Dollar hotdogs!

I've seen that movie before...
I think the explanation would be that he hasn't swung in a week due to his sore neck. Ease him back in and all that.
