So Phillips drop leads to a leadoff walk.
Apparently EE couldn't field a hit to third and Taveras let a ball scoot by him for extra bases. Also in this game Dickerson got a hit but was thrown out on the bases and Phillips couldn't catch a foul ball after a long run.
The Reds scored on a Taveras single, steals of second and third and a Votto sac fly.

I looked away from the TV before EE's miscue. I don't think it was as egregious as the WT play. WT and CD came together on a fly to right center, no one called it, and Dickerson made a play on the ball and missed, the ball got by and Willy Taveras lolly gagged after it, allowing the fleet footed Derrick Lee to get a triple.

Chris Welsh talking about Cueto and Tatum being unfamiliar with each other. Except for the fact that they played together in the minors.

Nice play to record the third out by Dickerson.
Leadoff double by Votto.
Say what you want about Dickerson, but he is at least playing like he cares.
Phillips gets Votto to third by grounding to the *left* side. PRODUCTIVE OUT!
Encarnacion effs the fundamental play up, though, by grounding back to the mound. It's up to Gomes.
Gomes fouls off a couple 1-2 pitches, takes a low curve, then waves at another one to end the inning.
3-1 Cubs after 3.5.
