Re: 8/24/12 - Reds vs Cards
Fly out to right. Almost a DP at 3rd but Rolen can't handle the throw.

Re: 8/24/12 - Reds vs Cards
I suppose it does go back to debate about psychological effect. It is absolutely, 100% just one game out of 162. But whenever a team ends up disappointing, you have people trying to pinpoint the moment it went wrong. Whether that's right or wrong, that's the way it goes. Tonight's (almost guaranteed) loss hurts, and hopefully it's water under the bridge come tomorrow.

They better not lose tomorrow since it's the first game I've attended in like 3 years.

Re: 8/24/12 - Reds vs Cards
Jay dead to rights at third if Rolen could come up with the ball. Great throw by Bruce.

Re: 8/24/12 - Reds vs Cards
Let's hope Mike Leake steals a win tomorrow.
Pun intended. |

Well, Simon did a 180. Looked pretty solid the last 2.

I give him props for eating up some innings when we needed it.

Seven games with the Nationals. Four in L.A. Six with the Pirates. Five more with the Reds. Three in San Diego. If they win tonight, Cards will have won four in a row. The winning streak will be folllowed by losses. Anyway, I hope so. |

Tom, the picture is too small. Who is that in your avatar? Davis? Larkin?
