Beats droning Kelch, and I'm no Grande fan. His voice drives me up the wall.

Re: 5/11/12 -- Nationals at Reds

I had a bad feeling coming in to this game with Leake facing Gio...
I hate it when my "feelings" are right

I think we've all seen enough games to know this wasn't a good matchup.

Re: 5/11/12 -- Nationals at Reds

The Reds have to start winning some of these games when they match up poorly though if they expect to win the division - either better performance than expected from that #4/5 guy or a breakout game from the offense agaiunst the other team's ace. They had a couple times where a hit would've plated some runs tonight and they sputtered.

Reds lose. Back to one over .500 again. Leake is not the answer, but you knew that.

Too bad the Reds can't play all their games against Central division teams.

It shouldn't be lost on us all that we loaded the bases twice and put in some good at bats doing so.

Re: 5/11/12 -- Nationals at Reds

5 losses against the Nats so far this year. Over 25% of our losses have come against them. Also Leake now with 5 losses. If we didn't play the Nats, and Francis was up and Leake was down(or Chapman could be our #4) we might be a few games over .500

Only good thing from last night's game? Our free pizzas from LaRosas & our UDF ice cream. Waiting for the pizzas now.
