    nice we're only down 2-1.. I know we should have the lead..but at least we're still in striking distance.

    Does Milton look better then he did on his previous start?

    This game is so frustrating. Backe can't throw strikes, but the Reds refuse to take the walks. Unreal.

    The score is tied 2-2 at the end of 7 innings. The Rain is pouring down and the field is being covered. The records and stats would count and the game started again if rained out.

    So is Dunn's job to get on base or drive in Runs Mr. PostaStat?? His #1 job is to drive in a freakin run, he is a power hitter. He is not a leadoff hitter. If his job is to score runs, he needs to drop about 50 lbs of muscle and run a tick faster, steal some bases, then I'll have no complaints about him having a high OBA and no RBI's.

    Mr. Istilljudgeplayersonbattingaverageandrbi,

    Dunn's job is to avoid making outs. He's doing a fine job of that. I don't see you being hard on Casey for his lack of rbi. Why Dunn but not Casey? What gives? He's got less rbi than Dunn, despite hitting third all season and having a higher average.

    Twi-night double hearder on Saturday beginning at 5:10 pm. As the game is tied, seems like they could pick up where they left off. Oh well.

    The part that stinks even more than the game being called? No TV on Saturday (or Sunday).
