I swear Frazier's voice sounds familiar, but I can't think of who it reminds me of.

He sounds like "The Voice"

Wonder if he can sing?

Great game and I actually got to watch it! Please tell me that George will be gone after Sunday. Is Thommy sick or something?
George has been OK this week, which supports my theory that Reds' fans tolerance level of GG varies directly with the success of the club.

I was getting nervous about that prediction after 3 though.

Lol. Hey at least it isn't Brantley on the radio. I seldom have to listen to the radio broadcast, but he is clearly the worst play by play announcer I have ever listened to. Our local guys do high school basketball better than he describes a ball game. Its a travesty. I never know if something good or bad has just happened. At least on TV, you can see the play, on radio, you're dependent on a Forrest Gump call of each play.

He's still in the newlywed stage with his new bride. He'll be back when the Viagra runs out.

The thing I'm wanting to go back and look at is whether or not Ludwick did anything to show up Wood on his HR trot or something. Anybody notice anything out of the ordinary?

~edit~ Just went back and re-looked at it, I sure didn't see anything "hot dog'ish" about anything. Either just a bad pitch, or an intentional plunking. Regardless of which it was, the Reds responded EXACTLY they way they should. On the scoreboard.
Ludwick is a Scott Rolen disciple. His home run trot is quick-paced and done in a way so as to not show up the pitcher.
