Reds losing 1-0 after Wigginton homers in bottom of 1st.
Backe has thrown 18 pitches after 2 innings.
Oh well maybe it is best if we just ignore the game today.
1-0 Astros after 3 innings. Backe 27 pitches, Harang 33.
Harang has retired seven straight.
If Gameday is to be believed, BP just swung at a pitch a foot outside and low.
"In our sundown perambulations of late, through the outer parts of Brooklyn, we have observed several parties of youngsters playing 'base', a certain game of ball. Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our close rooms, the game of ball is glorious"
-Walt Whitman
Reds out in order. I think the Astros have scored enough to win this one today.

August has been a rough month for the offense.
Aug OPS:
Bruce .701
BP .670
Patterson .666 (actually pretty solid for Corey)
EE .628
Kepp .562
Bako .348
On the good side:
Dickerson 1.035
Votto .917
Hanigan .875
Geoff Blum picks up a two out single to break Harang's string of nine in a row retired.
Patterson .666 (actually pretty solid for Corey)
That proves it. Patterson is just purely the devil.

After four, 1-0 Stros.
