Razor with a deep drive to center, everyone tags, Nix nailed at 2nd for a double play. 2-1 Reds.

Way to go guys. Outs > 1 base.

Re: 8/4/10 - Reds at Pirates
The advantage of playing the Pirates -- you can play like crap and still win.

Re: 8/4/10 - Reds at Pirates
That was such an unbelievably stupid play by Nix.
Even if he makes it to second, they walk Janish to get to Cueto. Stay at first and they pitch to Janish. |

I got nauseous when the Bucs announcer said "everyone's tagging" while that ball was in the air.

Cueto grounds out to end the inning. But hey, we did plate one. 2-1 Redlegs.
