    I see the ump just a gave very low strike for Happ -- that bodes well -- not
    The older I get - the better I was

    and yes - I hate the Cardinals (Reds fan since 1958)

    I miss Raisor

    DeJesus strikes out on a pitch 5 inches low and Thom says nothing and Cowboys quips about how that'll get called more often than not and then Votto takes strike 1 at the top of the zone (k zone showed it a strike) and Thom is in utter disbelief and Cowboy talks about pitches being called high???

    I can't think of another play by play announcer for any other team who gets as worked up about pitchers walking batters or errors or things like that as Thom does.
    “I don’t care,” Votto said of passing his friend and former teammate. “He’s in the past. Bye-bye, Jay.”

    Frazier has hit more home runs against the Pirates than any other team... and it's not close.

    I will take the Reds.....

    Billings is at home and will probably draw 2-3,000. Daytona is on the road and it's the Florida State League.
