Good win for the Reds gets the bad taste of Kansas City BBQ out of their mouths. Hats off to Daniel Ray and the Reds offense for this win.

If you have a losing record at Reds games, please stop going.

Speaking of which...while everyone is wallering in the afterglow of 7 runs, I'm sure the lineup won't change with the top two hitters in the lineup settling in at .228 and .224. Both drove in runs and were 1-5 (.200).

It's so hard to win games when we aren't scoring enough runs. We have scored more than 4 runs in only 4 out of the last 17 games. In those games, the Reds are 3-1.
Here are the number of games in the last 17 that we have scored a given number of runs:
0 runs- 0 games
1 run- 4 games (0-4)
2 runs- 4 games (0-4)
3 runs- 2 games (1-1)
4 runs- 3 games (2-1)
5 runs- 2 games (1-1)
7 runs- 1 game (1-0)
9 runs- 1 game (1-0)
During these last 17 games, the Reds have a record of 6-11.

I just looked at the Wrap for the game on reds.com. Looking down the boxscore, here are our ERAs for the pitchers in this game: 3.65, 1.69, 1.07, 1.59, 2.78, 1.93. And thats with Masset and Weathers raising their ERAs. Good pitching feels...good.

Have we catched up to the Brewers yet?
“I don’t care,” Votto said of passing his friend and former teammate. “He’s in the past. Bye-bye, Jay.”
It could have somethin' to do with so many of'em getin' on base.
Any guess to how many games JHJ will miss after the HBP?
8 but won't be put on the DL.

A couple more wins and we'll catched them.
My college (UCSC) went to the 3rd week of June, started in October though.
My boys finish tomorrow. My wife is terrified.

One more thing about Harang in this start. He was really on, which I think I said already, but his fastball was what I guess you would call "sneaky fast." You'd see it come in and the guy would miss or it would be called a strike and I was thinking, I'm not hearing a pop, I wonder what that pitch was. I'd look up at the board and bing, it would say 92 or 91, etc. He was absolutely pitch efficient: 35 pitches, 28 strikes (80%). He faced nine batters, so that's less than four pitches each.
