But Garcia with his first game winning wild pitch inducement.

A proud moment.

Garcia had no idea that Galvis was going to score on that play.

Not sure why, I was concerned he might block something.

I thought the same thing.

David Ross is full o' beans

[Bruce Berenyi]

batting .333 lets send him to prasco for "seasoning"

[Tom Servo]

a case could be made that Nate Jones was game MVP

Casali had a real nice game as well, really time for him to get the bulk of the starts over Barnhart.

David Bell: "Just to be very, very clear. The other team can take it any way they want, but I know there is absolutely no way we throw at anyone, certainly not at anyone's head." #

Ross on pitch that sailed over Rizzo's head: "That was intentional. No doubt in my mind. We were unhappy about it."

Ross is an idiot, and this is a huge self-own.

There is almost zero reasons to suspect the pitch to Rizzo was intentional. But if Ross admits that the Cubs believed it was, then it absolutely means that the pitch at Shogo was intentional payback for the perceived wrong-doing. If A, then B, he can't have it both ways.

And it means the umps boofed it in the heat of the moment, and it basically dares MLB to put things right now that he's admitted that he (and his Chief Lieutenant in Buttheadedness Rizzo) are guilty and got away with it.

David Ross said Tejay Antone was "sending a message." "We're not happy when somebody throws 97 behind Rizz." Adds, "That's not a slip, that's not a miss, that's not a grab-some-rosin slip. That was intentional. There's no doubt in my mind about that."

I wish David Ross was still playing so the Reds could show him what "sending a message" really looks like.

Antone: "The Cubs chirp the most. I notice when they're down they usually get quieter."

I'm going to say something I never though I'd say. Danny Graves is far superior in the post game than Sam LeCure.

I like him a lot too.

I met Gravey a few times backstage at wrestling shows, and always figured he'd be good at this job if he wanted to do it (spoiler alert: I also knew that about Casey).... but I agree that LeCure is really really really good, and I was just expecting Graves to hold down the fort.

Instead, he's killing it.

A receding Thom raises all ships, mayhap?

Nick Castellanos on the comeback, walk-off win: It shows every single guy here in a #Reds uniform is here for one purpose and that's to win.
