Re: 5/17/12 - Reds @ Mets
Bruce K's. Not a good day at the plate for the Boss. 4-4 to the bottom of the 8th.

Re: 5/17/12 - Reds @ Mets
Mets have had baserunners all day. Has there been a 1-2-3 inning?

Re: 5/17/12 - Reds @ Mets
Man, Wright is just locked in. Another battle between he and a Reds reliever.

Re: 5/17/12 - Reds @ Mets
Except he took strike 3 right down the middle, and it didn't get called. I mean right down the middle. Good god.

Re: 5/17/12 - Reds @ Mets
This has been 1 disappointing game, blowing a 4-0 lead to be down 5-4.

Re: 5/17/12 - Reds @ Mets
Not meant to be, errors, borderline calls against the Reds, poor base running, just not going to happen.

Re: 5/17/12 - Reds @ Mets
I've seen a lot of horrible balls-strikes calls in my day. That one might have taken the prize. 2-2 on Wright, right down the middle, and it's somehow called a ball! Then Wright doubles on the next pitch. Amazing. I mean, that wasn't even close. I re-wound it. Wow.
