There's a big out, and a nice throw by Ellison.
That may be the first compliment Jason Ellison has recieved in a Reds uniform

Fly out to Ellison in LF. Runners hold.

I am surprised the PH didnt bunt them over. FO to Center, runners still at 1st and 2nd, 1 out.
There's 2!
Weathers with a great change to get Ramirez to K swinging. Uggla up, 2 out.
Ramirez K's on a very nice slider from Weathers. One Out left.

Cabrera must absolutely not be allowed to make it to the plate.
It's nice to FEEL suspense again in close games by the Reds...
That means there is hope...even if it's unlikely hope.
Sweet!
4 in a row!
Uggla not giving in. Weathers needs to get him to chase.

REDS WIN!!! Lazy fly out to CF from Uggla.

Ramirez, Uggla and Cabrera today: 1 for 14
If the Reds could have put together this streak last season, the Cards would have not have won the World Series. Too little too late for this season? Probably, but hopefully not. The real question is are they doing this because of Mac, because there is no pressure, or because the players are getting in a groove at the same time.
What's that....9 losses in a row for the Marlins now?
Rob Neyer: "Any writer who says he'd be a better manager than the worst manager is either 1) lying (i.e. 'using poetic license') or 2) patently delusional. Which isn't to say managers don't do stupid things that you or I wouldn't."
A little bit of all of those, IMO, plus some injury "luck".Originally Posted by DoogMinAmo
If Castro, Freel, Ross and Gonzo don't go down...Hopper, Kepp and Javy see little playing time.
Those three are hitting .397, .420 and .389 respectively in August.
