With the Reds offense, you might skip their half innings too.

I know. I just didn't want to say it.

Same here.

He just isn't very fun to watch. Leake is a little bit that way, although not as much so. I guess I just don't really enjoy watching soft-tossers.

Re: 5/7/12 - Reds at Brewers

I just realized this is the umpiring crew with CB Bucknor. Between Bucknor and the home plate ump this crew is awful. Heisey strikes out swinging.

CB will make at least one awful call before the series is over, without a doubt.

And this guy's strike zone is nuts.

Re: 5/7/12 - Reds at Brewers

Heisey and Phillips soon to be below .200. With a hit, Bronson would be hitting higher, but he lines out.

Re: 5/7/12 - Reds at Brewers

Solid smack from Arroyo, but right at Braun. Crud.

Is it too early to point out he's got a no-hitter going?

Re: 5/7/12 - Reds at Brewers

The Reds could use LF for a lefty. Or a cleanup man. Or an OBP guy.

They opted for none of the above.

Re: 5/7/12 - Reds at Brewers

I tweeted after the Braun homer that it wouldn't be the last run scored tonight.

Watch it end 1-0.
