Map on Weather.com makes it look like could be tough to get it started before 9:00.

Schumaker should help the Reds. No power but the type who can get a single against a good pitcher. Crafty, good approach.

Will be interesting to see if the Reds' offense suddenly turns it on against the Cubs at GABP. In a way, this is a big series to see if the Reds can snap back from the series we all just sat through.

Tough pitching matchup tonight. I wouldn't expect much offense against The Shark on a cold night.

Back to hitting the baseball and scoring some runs.

Simon looking like he'll be getting at least another half dozen starts with Latos slowly progressing, but progressing nonetheless.

Glad to see Schumaker beginning his minor league stint.

If he has no pain, get him on the interstate! With no rehab, he has to be better than Cozart.

FWIW, it's clear (albeit overcast) 4 miles Northwest of GABP.

I hope we can get this one in, come out strong, and get some momentum.

Go Reds!

A big shot of antibiotics just rolled into town. Hopefully the bats will get healthy.

Chip and I are at the ballpark. We are safe.

Chip has already spilled a beverage on my red chuck Taylors.

I expect the first punch in Chip's face within the hour.

Unless whatever plagues the bats is antibiotic resistant, of course.

MLB's audio dropped the stream because of the delay. Anyone have a link to the banana phone?

Yeah, don't need a double-header....makes it harder to win both than to have them on two separate days.

Good luck tonight fella's. Like the Reds, the Cubbies have been loosing a buncha 1 run games. They're better than the record reflects.

On the mighty Brewers: with Segura and Braun both sidelined I look for a Cardinal sweep to get their inevitable tailspin started. *knock wood*

Still raining. Have yet to punch chip in the face.

Anyone with a banana phone update?

Very close prediction. I believe the actual call was more like this... Hey Marty, why don't they put Leake at ss for a couple games a week. You know he used to play short in college!

I wish I could get the banana phone. I go to the stream for WLW 700 and they give me some random talk show for some reason and then I go to MLB audio and they are just dead right now.

Bad news for me: Wong and Shane Robinson were sent down for 2 guys I never heard of, and Tim Mc Carver has joined the broadcast team! I thought the guy retired.

So you see, things could be worse for the Reds. :cry:

I can't feel my legs. Hypothermia is setting in. I was forced to kill Chip for food.

Day 30. I'm beginning to hallucinate. For those reading this after I'm gone: do not take the brown acid!!!

Just to clarify...did you eat Chip raw...or lightly barbequed with a nice marinade?

The outfielder is the other guy the Cards got for Freese from the Angels. He's a decent hitting prospect. Might be the best player in that deal. Cards could use a good bat.

Nothing official. But most likely between July 7 and 10 when the Cubs come to town next.
