"In our sundown perambulations of late, through the outer parts of Brooklyn, we have observed several parties of youngsters playing 'base', a certain game of ball. Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our close rooms, the game of ball is glorious"

Bruce lines out to center. 2-1 Reds after 3.

I watch on EI quite a bit. I hear the opposing announcers quite a bit. They often drive me absolutely nuts.
I think ESPN puts on a quality telecast and I like the announcers. They are well informed and the overall telecast gets into pretty good depth about the Reds. I'll defend these guys.
By the way, the Mets radio announcers were highly complimentary about Janish's defense today for the Bravos. Paul had a good game afield.
I think we should start playing it up: The Terrifying Bandbox of Doom.
BCubb LOL
I'm enjoying the ESPN announcers for the most part. But the talk about the park gets old...

I agree KC - seems like they've been complimentary of the Reds all night. If anything they are favoring the Reds in the telecast. Supposed peace parley intunnel huh? That's news. They shoulda had the fans - if they wanted fistfights!
I'm not going to get too upset with Francona...since he'll be managing the Reds next year.
Nice pitch. Holliday strikes out swinging.
Sub-4 ERA alert...
Beltran grounds out to Mesoraco.
Baily is dialed in tonight..
