Re: Reds vs Astros 8/27/08
What happened to having too many outs at the bottom of the order? Patterson, Bako, and Fogg. I'm guessing Walt stopped listening to that crap?

Hey, Fogg is no hitting the Astro's, and we're beating Oswalt.

Re: Reds vs Astros 8/27/08
Josh Fogg vs Roy Oswalt. Sounds like a Reds win to me. Seriously. I'm calling a Reds win vs Oswalt tonight. If I'm wrong then Redszone can give me a wedgie.

Re: Reds vs Astros 8/27/08
Sigh. Running in to outs is bad, especially at home. Still looked like he may have been in under the tag.

What simply stupid (or over aggressive) base running.
And good ol' EE strolling in from home.

There goes the no-no. Only lasted an inning.
