    I have no answers why they aren't hitting him at all. He doesn't look to be doing anything different but it is clear they aren't picking up the ball well.

    He's a big guy that looks like he'd throw 95, maybe a slight adjustment to hide the ball a touch and it fools them.

    Best I got.

    Yeah....they could start Hoover and have him just throw 7 balls outside and pull him.

    Sounds like we've found that long relief guy.

    Bad AB by BP.....doubtful Bruce gets him in and Heisey is hopeless.

    Meso leads off with a double and then with 2 outs he's still on 2nd only 6 pitches into the inning???? Lol

    I love these games where the Reds refuse to take strikes and work counts. They are not frustrating at all.

    Good for Holmberg....not sure how he did it but happy for him he did.

    Now he's out of the game so time for some Cards runs.

    Holmberg should get credit for a quality start.

    Carpenter driving in those 2 runs with a single against Parra was perhaps the least surprising moment of the season.

    Sometimes you don't need a stat to know you did it.

    We all know it was quality

    Middle relievers strike again for the reds. I see another 1 run loss looming...provided they score some runs
