I could have done without Castro in the lineup but he hits pretty well against Garland. We need a win.

[flynn78]

Grande interviewing Castro on pregame. Pulled out the old "manos de oros" (hands of gold) on Castro, not once but twice. Sometimes watching the Reds broadcast is like watcking slapstick comedy.

[flynn78]

1-2-3 first for Harang as the Reds go to the bat rack

[flynn78]

Reds 1st
FeLo flies out to LF 1 down
Phillips lines out to first 2 down
JR strikes out on three pitches 3 down
to the 2nd we go

No prob I'm good until Dad decides it is time to go to lunch/dinner. Preferably that is AFTER the game.

Top of 2nd (added note) Brandon Phillips and Thome both wearing blue eyeblack for Dad's day kinda cool
Dye K's swinging
Pierzynski K's swinging
Cintron flies to LF

Marty and Joe in rare form today

[Gallen5862]

They were talking about the old Elvis shrine they had in the booth and the Cincinnati Bell trivia question was about Mr. T. Needless to say they got going on it and had me cracking up. Joe doing the PBP this inning.

[Gallen5862]

Thanks Flynn78 sounds like they are having fun.

And I actually know the answer to the trivia question... Mr. T cut down the trees on his property.
