How did Reds radio broadcasts snag a Porsche sponsor?
The Reds are flashing a whole bunch of defense for Bailey.
Wow....ball drops.
Reds craptastic DER in action. That's two balls hit to Junior that should have been outs.
Games are won on run differential -- scoring more than your opponent. Runs are runs, scored or prevented they all count the same. Worry about scoring more and allowing fewer, not which positions contribute to which side of the equation or how "consistent" you are at your current level of performance.
Nice play there by Bruce.
Time to retire Junior's jersey - with him in it.
Someone tell the Rockies to hit the ball into the 10' x 10' square that Junior plays in.
Double by Atkins.
Can't get hitters out after getting 2 strikes on them.
Homer just doesn't have very good stuff. I honestly don't see anything better than what we could get Fogg or Belisle. No out pitch and no command of anything besides his fastball... sometimes.

It's easy to complain about the Reds' pitching, but these guys are throwing with the worst defense in the league behind them, and in a bandbox. That has to put a strain on the pitchers.

Fogg and Belisle are what they are....Bailey is still young and can develop.
I let him keep pitching in the rotation for the big club. He's looked a lot more comfortable this time around - however, I'm not really sure what you do when Harang comes back...
