Re: 8/9/2012 Reds vs Baby Bears
That was a heck of a play by Mez.

Nice play from Mes.

Re: 8/9/2012 Reds vs Baby Bears
They are a good combo, and I'm with you on the latter point as well. I love Thom's voice but it does get old to hear him constantly beating players down for doing anything wrong. He makes us here seem like easy-going fans who never criticize anything, LOL.

Re: 8/9/2012 Reds vs Baby Bears
True...but for things like this, I point to the coaches. It's up to them to make those guys stay in the cage and ACTUALLY work on it instead of just giving it that one half-hearted attempt during normal BP.

Re: 8/9/2012 Reds vs Baby Bears
FS Ohio has been shoddy for me for quite some time now. It seems like almost every night the sound isn't in synch with the picture, and there's a good amount of digital noise in the picture too. Still better than standard definition, but frustrating.

Re: 8/9/2012 Reds vs Baby Bears
Yeah, that's my take on Thom too. He has a good voice but he's basically Marty Junior in terms of having his favorites and whipping boys.

Rizzo walks. 1st and 2nd, 1 out.

Re: 8/9/2012 Reds vs Baby Bears
Totally agree...but when you have a players coach u don't get the in your face stuff and sometimes you need that.

Re: 8/9/2012 Reds vs Baby Bears
Leake didn't want to leave a fat one out over the plate to Rizzo. Soriano is going to hit into a DP or K.

Re: 8/9/2012 Reds vs Baby Bears
No, that's the manager. Dusty's not the guy who would do the bunting technique and such with the players. And you don't have to get in a guys' face to point out that you need to work on this or that. Just point out the results and they'll get the message pretty quickly.
