    Reds went quietly in the 2nd. Heisey just made a great diving catch for the 1st out for the Cubs.

    Cubs also go quietly, on to the 3rd
    Reds 4, Cubs nada.

    Pitch count through 2:

    Bailey - 31
    Volstad - 48 (41 of them came in the 1st)

    Another Cubs error, Bruce reaches.

    Cubs are just bad
    ...the 2-2 to Woodsen and here it comes...and it is swung on and missed! And Tom Browning has pitched a perfect game! Twenty-seven outs in a row, and he is being mobbed by his teammates, just to the thirdbase side of the mound.

    Rolen lined out & Bruce was doubled off. Heisey flies out - still 4-0 Reds.

    That at bat between Homer and DeJesus symbolizes the frustration with Homer. Homer throws two quality pitches to get ahead 0-2, then tries to blow him away with his 94MPH fastball three times in a row to get a full-count. The decision pitch is a marshmallow down the middle of the plate - base hit to left.

    How has Bailey been looking overall? Has he been pitching as well as the stats indicate?

    When he is locked in, he looks fine. He's hitting the catchers glove when he tries to pitch and not just throw as hard as he can. When he loses concentration...

    And now it's 4-2 as the Cubs capitalize.

    I've not been overly impressed. The Cubs are awful and he has still managed to give up 2 runs. I realize Heisey has an error but if the wind isn't blowing in like this that ball lands in the streets.
