Was it more of the same, meaning swinging early in the count?

Maybe it is the Reds year. As poorly as they have played they are at .500.

Awesome. Bruce keeping it hot into May. If he has a May like he had last year, look out.

We have faced a lot of quality pitching thus far. I know it's easy to say we helped them out, but it seems every other game we're going up against a starting pitcher who has begun the season on a roll.

I am sorry but I will never buy into this line of thinking. Good teams beat good pitchers. If the Reds make the playoffs this is the type of pitching they will face just about every game.
