This is always a sad day for me. No more baseball until February and no more real games until late March. Even as bad as this season has been, it's baseball and Reds baseball.

With Jake Arrieta scratched and instead throwing a simulated game Wednesday because of a right hamstring injury, lefty Mike Montgomery will make the start for Chicago. In what is expected to essentially be a bullpen day. Rookie Deck McGuire will start for Cincinnati.
Meanwhile, Sunday is expected to be first baseman Joey Votto's 162nd start of the season, making him the first Reds player to start every game of a non-strike season since Pete Rose in 1975. Billy Hamilton, who has 59 steals, will look to overtake Miami's Dee Gordon, who leads MLB with 60, for his first stolen-base crown.
After he was out of the starting lineup on Saturday, Reds shortstop Zack Cozart (right quadriceps) is expected to start what could be his final game with the team. Cozart will be a free agent for the first time this offseason.

Normally I would feel the same way. But to be honest, I can't wait for this season to be over. It's a chore to follow this club, and it's painful to watch them as they stumble yet again toward another finish line.

The Reds get a single from Suarez but that's all in their half of the 2nd inning.

White Sox already down to CLE 3-0, bot 2. Reds will have to lose to keep #4 draft pick for next year.

I mostly have to record these games and watch later in the night so I don't always participate here but I usually do read thru these threads and as always have enjoyed the comments and especially the humor that is somehow mustered up
