Smith aboard as Gausman's throw gets past Votto
If he had retired the first two batters I'd agree with you. But he plunked the leadoff hitter and walked the second one.
At that point the winning run is at the plate with nobody out and your starter is already approaching 110 pitches and it's only the 7th inning. Even if he was able to retire the next 3 guys, he'd be looking at 140 pitches to make it all 9.
I dunno, it's all hindsight now. But it sure didn't work out.

Welp that oughta do it. 4-2 on a Nola RBI
This offense ain't got 2 more runs in 'em.
Ugh. This game is a kick in the pants.
A bad Seattle team showing how bad the Reds really are.
It was the 7th inning with nobody out and he was already approaching 110 pitches, his season high has been 111.
How long you gonna let him go? 120? 130? 140?
I'm sure the memories of the no hitter would be fun next year after he goes under the knife for TJ surgery.

5-2 now
Kyle Seager digs the knife in a little more
I believe this one is over.

why pinch hit for a guy that just hit a HR?
“I don’t care,” Votto said of passing his friend and former teammate. “He’s in the past. Bye-bye, Jay.”
