Re: Reds vs Cards 9/26/08
The last season series of the year for the Reds.
Always a depressing time of the year for me. |

Yep. The last game of the season is the worst day of the year for me. I wish I could fast forward time up to the beginning of spring training.

Re: Reds vs Cards 9/26/08
That was a nice little interview with Bruce and Votto. They both seem like great guys. Judging from Votto's comments, it seems like his fathers death wasn't totally unexpected.

Re: Reds vs Cards 9/26/08
Interview with Bruce and Votto on the pregame. I'm very impressed by Votto -- you can see the quiet confidence and the steadiness that can translate to leadership over the course of a long season. Thoughtful guy, too. Core player, without question.

Re: Reds vs Cards 9/26/08
Votto enters the final weekend with an .857 OPS and Bruce is at .785. I'd love to see Votto keep his above .850 and Bruce have a huge weekend and push his over .800. I said before the season I would be happy if Votto could OPS north of .800 and Bruce above .750 - both have far exceeded my expectations.

Re: Reds vs Cards 9/26/08
Loopers goes 1-2-3. It seems like the Reds offense always makes Looper look good.

Already 2-0 Cardinals thanks to a bunch of cheap hits.

3 straight singles to right for the Cards right handed middle of the lineup.

Rosales turns another DP with another strong throw to first.

Why would we want Kennedy? He's awful.
