Homer gave CoCo the old shaving cream pie during the post-game Jim Day interview.

Nice win. Good effort by Bailey.

Have to tip my cap to Stubby. Couple of monster shots when we needed them.


Didn't Coco have a week like this right before the AS game last year?

Baker pitched him several games in a row and it caught up with him in Milwaukee. KoKO rebounded nicely after the break.

We needed folks to step up with Joey out, and they are. Don't forget Xavier Paul two nights in a row.

Amazing the slack Ondrusek and Marshall get cut around here. Just a miserable effort by Ondrusek against a very mediocre team in a big ball park. Cost Bailey a well deserved 10th win.

Baker will ride his horses til the end. 50% of all games is not too much for Baker. He's going for it and Chapman may end up seeing 74-81 games. Hope he survives.

He does overuse his hot relief pitchers. O f course the way LeCure pitched last night and Ondrusek tonight, I can't blame him.

Re: Reds vs. Astros Wednesday 7/25

A huge at-bat was Phillips coming back from 0-2 to draw a walk. If that doesn't happen then Stubbs doesn't get to the plate in all likelihood.

I think it may be time to move Simon into Ondrusek's spot.

Right. I know BP has to be given a day off now and then, but it was a breath of fresh air getting him up there in the ninth. He has been playing some baseball.

Re: Reds vs. Astros Wednesday 7/25

Nice win for the Reds, quality start from Homer...deserved the win, but along came Ondrusek But Stubbs saves the day I have to give the guys credit, their playing good ball for now...need to maintain the "Mojo" My revised prediction, two months ago I said 85 wins at best, now: 95 wins this season
