Now a pop up to short and they're already down to the last out. Blandino in to pinch hit.
Blandino Ks. It's over folks.
No pride.
“The crows seem to be calling my name,” thought Caw.
Well, that was an anticlimactic end.
Another great outing by bullpen.

Marty ends his career by complaining about a hitter taking too many pitches. Against one of the hardest pitchers to hit in the majors, but one who can be wild. At a time when we desperately needed a base runner.
Good luck Marty, you've had a HOF career but it's time to pack it in.
At least we rested our best player today. Gonna be big for that Pirates series.
Rounding third and heading for home...

Now the Reds have to win 2 of 3 from the Pirates for my prediction of 75 wins to be realized. Possible but not likely with the Reds just rolling over and dying on the field.

"In our sundown perambulations of late, through the outer parts of Brooklyn, we have observed several parties of youngsters playing 'base', a certain game of ball. Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our close rooms, the game of ball is glorious"

I recall Waite Hoyt's last game (64?) Reds lost that one too. Waite always interviewed the star of the game who would be from the winning team. But he wanted to talk to a Red as it was his last game so he interviewed Sammy Ellis.
As far as I'm concerned, the Reds can make everyone available this offseason. This is a poor, poor team. Offense ranks in the bottom 25% of MLB in nearly all categories. Except for Gray, pitching is middle of the road.
