This is great, but we want a lot more.

Congrats to the Cincinnati Reds.

Get Well Dusty Baker.

Opening Game starter right there for the playoffs. Great job. Finally some offense too.

Re: Congrats to the NL Central Division Champs, the Cincinnati Reds!

And there was much rejoicing!

Hell yes, this is a fantastic day!

Much love to Latos for nailing this one down for Reds fans on a beautiful Saturday night!

I wish I could be at the Holy Grail / Banks tonight, it's got to be a feel good scene and will be all night!

Re: Congrats to the NL Central Division Champs, the Cincinnati Reds!

Since 1970, the Reds have won the Division in 70, 72, 73, 75, 76, 79, 90, 95, 10, 12 That's 10 times. They also had the best recoord in Baseball in 81 but were screwed by the strike and the split season. They were leading when the lock-out cancelled things in 1994 and had the Wild Card play-in game in 1999. So 13 times in 43 years the Reds "won" something. That's just over once every three years. Looking at it like that, we're a pretty lucky bunch, but the slim pickings lately have me hungry for more than a Division. This is sweet tonight, but I hope they forget about it and get down to business tomorrow.

Didn't think they would win the division and never dreamt it would be so easy.

Now go get that #1 Seed. Also make sure you eliminate the Cardinals from the playoffs during that series next week!

I dream of the Cards needing to win the final game of the season and we somehow stick it to them with the guys that beat the Cubs Thursday.
