Coming back from surgery 3 months early also, that guy is underrated.

FIRST MLB HIT, HR, & RBI!!!!!!!!
GREAT JOB HEISEY!!!!!!!!!!

I'd rather listen to Kelch read the phone book than suffer through Thom Brennaman's attempt to make every instance on the field the most important event since the discovery of manned space flight. -westofyou
Cueto, buzzsaw.
Great to see Heisey shine a little too.
Team's looking good right now.
It was the PEDs
They just said it again. The Pirates can officially get nothing right.Coming back from surgery 3 months early also, that guy is underrated.
There is no such thing as a pitching prospect.
Kids night out. Cueto's complete game 1-hitter. Heisey's breakout game. Votto and Bruce have big hits. The future's bright, folks.
But mix in good games from veterans Phillips, Rolen, and Hernandez and you get a blowout. Take that Buccos!
Now 3 over .500 and it looks like tomorrow might be a good day too. Time to break out the cheap beer and celebrate (broke). Life is good.
Just popping in to remind everyone that tonight's game was freaking fantastic.
Carry on.
Reading comprehension is not just an ability, it's a choice
And just a tad ironic that the one hit was past Janish, if I remember hearing that correctly while driving home. How close was it?Ground out to 3rd ends the game. A one-hitter for Cueto. Reds win 9-0! 4th win a row.

Paul dove for it--it didn't seem that hard hit--and it either went off his glove or he just missed it. Unfortunately, he probably couldn't have gotten Cedano at first regardless.
Astros took the lead 4-2 in their half of the 7th, but the Cards have cut it to 4-3 in the bottom half and are still threatening. Pujols is up with 1 out and runners on 1st and 2nd...
EDIT: 'Stros still up 4-3 heading to the 8th. All 4 of their runs against Penny are unearned.

Looks like I was a pessimist!
Just caught the game via DVR. Wow....that was a ridiculous effort by Cueto....his stuff had amazing pop and action. Very promising.
Baseball is like church. Many attend, few understand
Nice, Berkman and Pence both with solo shots to give Houston a 6-3 lead.
Amazing side note: the Astros 2, 3, 4, and 5 hitters' respective 2010 OPSes:
.435 (!), .687, .530, and .645. That's beyond brutal. (Yet two still homered off Motte)
Cubs lose today
Astros bullpen shuts the door to close out the victory 6-3. Reds now just 2 games back of the Cards.
Given Cueto's gem, Cards losing to the lowly Astros, Cubs losing, and Brewers' getting beaten down (10-3 to the Braves), tonight's a sensational night for Reds baseball!
