Agreed. Baker needs to just leave Heisey alone and let him play for awhile.

Yeah....but our focus and hitting matchups with the Braves seem good....not with Washington.

Bourn and Prado are the Braves that scare me....no I sure don't want Chipper or McCann up to win a game....but Bourn and Prado just live on the bases.

The only problem we had with Bourn was him circling the bases. We turned him into Babe Ruth in one series, by giving him the one pitch he can hit out of the park. Same pitch all three times.

Phillies hand Joe Blanton a 6-0 lead but Blanton wants no part of it. Game tied at 7 now in the bottom of the fifth.

Agree....learn from your mistakes

But Bourn is having a good year....Prado is excellent on offense and defense at multiple positions.....with immense focus

Freese hits a solo shot in the bottom of 7 with two outs. 9-8 through 7.

Doesn't bother me in the least- its May, way to early to be watching the scoreboard.

Re: Reds vs. Braves Thursday 5/24

Top of the 8th, Ty Wigginton hits a solo home run, making the score 10-8. The Phillies get runners on the corners with two outs but cannot get another run in.

Bottom of the 8th, the Cardinals get the run back on a Skip Schumaker sacrifice fly. Carlos Beltran strikes out swinging with runners on 1st and 2nd to end the inning.

10-9 Phillies after 8

Mesoraco's grand slam didn't even make ESPN's Top 10 Plays.
