Cabrera could've walked to third there.

And now a balk to score Cabrera. 6-2 Reds. He had the ball in the glove while on the rubber, took it out and put it back in. Stupid rule, but still a balk.

I think its about time to give Nix got the Ax. No production that has been meaningful this year. Give me Fransisco and get him ready to spell Rolen later in the year.

I agree partially. No production from Nix. But Francisco looked REALLY bad at the plate while up here.

Nix is in left. Masset on the mound with his 12.38 era...*shudder*

He's trying to get ready in AAA.....but hitting .122 and k'ing nearly every other at bat. I think he has his hands full for now.

Nix has remarkably only had 12 at bats this year. Why Gomes continues to get start after start against righties is beyond logic. His D is just heads and shoulders above Gomes....and clearly has proven his bat has value.

Masset was NASTY that inning. 1-2-3 in back to back innings from the pen.

Re: 4/27/10 Reds deep in the heart of Texas (Astros)

Now has 15 k's in 9 innings. He struck Berkman out on 5 straight fastballs....from 91-97 MPH.

Hopefully it's just a little tweaking to get him back on track.

His heat, Herraras' change of pace, Lincoln's curve, Rhodes veteran prowess, CoCo's stuff......pen could shape up pretty quickly

LOL. Brandon with another grounder to short quickly followed by a VERY clear expletive over the air from him.

JOEY! Solid single to right. About time. He's been talking to himself after every ab lately.

Rolen flashes his warning track power again. Cordero warming up

Anybody notice how quiet these gamethreads get when the Reds are playing WELL? Kinda sad IMO.

Bruce with another single. Votto with agressive running to head to third. And Bruce with more heads up running by heading to second on the throw.
