I know I said I would not start Straily game threads but here it is anyway. Reverse jinx.

Their jerseys should say Deargs.
Pirates announcers are being snarky.
Dan Straily gets his first career hit!
“I don’t care,” Votto said of passing his friend and former teammate. “He’s in the past. Bye-bye, Jay.”
Peraza having a bad day in centerfield.
Pirates anniuncers are goofy, but almost as sabermetric as Chris Welsh.
The Reds (Jocketty's? Price's?) belief that you can just stick anybody in CF is something I would really like to see go. Peraza isn't an outfielder, let alone able to handle the challenges of the toughest OF position, and Schebler isn't a CFer either. And neither was Brennan Boesch.

Watching the Pittsburgh broadcast is about as exciting as watching paint dry. Bob Walk and the other guy who's name escapes me is so low key that one could fall asleep. The call on Votto near homer was simply boring.

Joey Votto is good.

Three hit day for Scott Schebler btw, including a double.
