Danny Richar's first atbat in a Reds uni results in a sharp line drive single but he gets thrown out trying to stretch it into a double.

Janish in at SS. Good move.
Maybe they should not throw Castillo strikes and see if he has any patience....if he swings at everything then they will stop throwing him strikes and let his impatience get him out.
Burton in to pitch the 7th.
Cameron grounds out to Janish.
Burton walks Hall after getting ahead 1-2 and now hits Kendall on a 1-2 pitch. That ball looked like it hit the bat.
Burton hasn't been sharp at all since returning from the DL.
Hall walks after Burton getting ahead 1-2, then he hits Kendall on a 1-2 count. 1st & 2nd, 1 out.
13 guys in the bullpen and Dusty has to use Burton for the 3rd time in 4 days. And the Reds just paid the price.
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.
Durham ties the game with a homerun. Wow. This isn't the same Burton.
Geez... tie game. Burton needs to hit the showers.
Tie ball game. 3 run dinger by Durham. Crap.
