Two 1st basemen tonight? Stubbs gets to cover LF as well as CF.

I can't believe I actually had a couple debates with Reds fans entering the season regarding Renteria v Janish. I said Renteria was clearly the better offensive player even at this stage of his career and many doubted that statement. They said Renteria/Janish were basically equal offensively. Not even close. One of the nice things about this month is hopefully it's the last time I'll ever see Paul Janish in a Reds uniform. ;-)
Renteria is still a very-serviceable backup SS. Definitely not a starter at this stage of his career, but he's a solid backup. Still at least decent defensively and won't hurt you with the stick (for a SS). I don't get his unwillingness to play 3B though. It could extend his career like it extended Tony Fernandez's.
2-1 Reds on the ground out.
Leake is through six. 2-1 Reds going to the bottom half.
REDS win 2-1!

Reds win with Leake pitching 8 strong for his 12th win. Got his ERA down below 4 , too.
