    I can't tell if you're serious or not. Hamilton was a zero factor on a chopper with two outs to third.

    Can you imagine Latos pitching for that defense?

    Stolen base #50 for Billy.

    Phillips has not hit well since his injury. Now would be a good time.

    I think Welsh's comment about defensive indifference kinda sums up this half of the inning. Love to see a dinger to make it sting a little.

    I was serious. The third baseman rushed the play and I have to believe BH running the bases was a factor.

    He just makes the infield jittery and it showed, even though he didn't necessarily figure in the play. IMO.

    Hey, the Reds have six.

    You can't really argue that Hamilton caused the error on Frazier's dribbler when two pitches later the Cubs infield couldn't have given less of a rip if Hamilton stole third.

    I get this yucky streak of reds baseball has left us yearning for some sunshine but isn't 6-2 while watching the Cubs be the Cubs sunshine enough without imagining things?
