Can't ever be indifferent. Got to want to win 162 times a year.

Corky pops up to end the inning and life goes on.

I'd be more enthusiastic with more than about four hours of sleep, LOL

Nice throw by Corky!

Re: 8/26/09 Reds vs Brewers

I have a feeling before this night is over somebody is going to get tossed. Strike Zone is a bit all over the place.

Nice play #2 from Janish. Without a rifle arm, you don't make that play.

Re: 8/26/09 Reds vs Brewers

Strange that Dusty continues to bat Stubbs and Janish 1-2--the two worst OBP guys on the field. Drives me nuts.

Wells getting squeezed tonight.

Re: 8/26/09 Reds vs Brewers

Wasn't that the same exact pitch that was just called a strike at 3-1 that was suddenly ball four?! I see what you mean about the strike zone being a little crazy tonight. I've been switching back and forth between a few things tonight while I try to get some things done at home.

I wonder if Dusty, after writing in Corky, was tempted to write in Pokey, Gookie and Noochie.

Are you questioning me on balls and strikes?!? You arguing with me? You think it is easy to pick out whether a ball is over the corner at 95 mph??? If it sounds good it is a strike! If I say it is a strike, it is a strike! So go sit down! What was that? KoryMac5 you are out of here!!

hey stop kicking dirt on the plate!
Hey stop kicking dirt on me! go back to the plate!
Did you miss it when I rang you?
go in the clubhouse, watch ESPN or House Hunters on HGTV! You are gone!

Balentien sends one to the center-field fence, but it's caught.

Reds 1, Brewers 0 after 3.5.
