Reds went quietly in the 2nd. Heisey just made a great diving catch for the 1st out for the Cubs.

Cubs are just bad
...the 2-2 to Woodsen and here it comes...and it is swung on and missed! And Tom Browning has pitched a perfect game! Twenty-seven outs in a row, and he is being mobbed by his teammates, just to the thirdbase side of the mound.
Rolen lined out & Bruce was doubled off. Heisey flies out - still 4-0 Reds.

I still hate the black on the bill of our hats.
That at bat between Homer and DeJesus symbolizes the frustration with Homer. Homer throws two quality pitches to get ahead 0-2, then tries to blow him away with his 94MPH fastball three times in a row to get a full-count. The decision pitch is a marshmallow down the middle of the plate - base hit to left.
What a terrible play by Heisey out there.
When he is locked in, he looks fine. He's hitting the catchers glove when he tries to pitch and not just throw as hard as he can. When he loses concentration...
And now it's 4-2 as the Cubs capitalize.
