    Man, does this team struggle with lefties! Throw out a pitcher with a 6.16 ERA and what do the Reds do? Make 12 outs on 41 pitches (with 2 hits). AT this rate, this kid will go 10 innings and still have a shutout.

    Soft-tossing southpaws are like kryponite/Superman to the Red's hitters. Been that way for years

    Nah, it was Peter Edward (man, the 'stro's crew doesn't give a guy much time to cogitate...)
    Cincinnati's AFLAC Question was "Who are the only four major-leaguers to have seven seasons with 40+ HRs and 100+ RBIs?"

    The answers were Babe Ruth, Harmon Killebrew, Sammy Sosa, and Barry Bonds.

    Ken Griffey, Jr. needs 7 HRs and 10 RBIs the rest of the season to become the fifth player to do it.

    Wasn't a fake attempt.

    Not even. While Rich has below-average wheels for a middle infielder, Sean is slower than a veteran catcher coming off multiple knee surgeries
    Rich Aurilia has below-average wheels for a first baseman, much less a middle infielder. Roseanne Barr on a Segway beats either to first base.

    Dunner misses a HR by 5 feet (foul, right)

    Then Adam bloops a single to score Casey, 1-0 Cincy. AD goes to 2nd on the throw home

    George says, "Casey scampers home."

    I have a difficult time trying to picture that.
