    It's still the pitching. Griffey's gone; throw strikes.

    Bruce has still struggled unbelievably over the last 2 months. I really can't even believe that we are debating this. It's like bragging that you got a 20 on the test because the guy who sits behind you got a 10.

    They've both been awful in the recent past.

    He has a 2.83 ERA, that's not awful.

    5 scoreless innings when the Reds are losing.
    2 straight innings with runs allowed when the Reds are winning.

    If ERA tells us little about a starter, it tells us *nothing* about a reliever.

    Mike Lincoln's scoreless streak is over.

    Yeah, that's what you get when you have to lean on your mediocre pen as badly as the Reds have had to.

    Phillips boots a double play ball and now the game is tied.

    I wonder what Bob and Walt think of their slapstick adventure

    This entire pitching staff needs a transfusion. They just look whipped.

    That's what happens when three-fifths are rookies.

    You might call this "Jim Bowden's Revenge." Bray and Majewski allowing hits and runs scoring.

    And we quit scoring, as usual, after the big 2nd inning (adding one in the 6th).
