“I don’t care,” Votto said of passing his friend and former teammate. “He’s in the past. Bye-bye, Jay.”
8 dingers in less than 40 games? Nope, no power there. :O)
Just get comfortable on those breaking pitches and I think we've got a keeper.
Stubbs CF
Nix LF
Votto 1B
Phillips 2B
Francisco 3B
Bruce RF
Hanigan C
Janish SS
Arroyo P
Not a bad lineup there IMO. I like Janish in there, but I like him low in the order. Nix in the 2 hole is intriguing.
It'll be interesting to see what Francisco does with a start at 3rd.
9 straight retired by Arroyo. He's been about as solid as you can get lately.
And Juan made his first play at third. Looked pretty smooth. It wasn't tough...but hey, it's his first action. The nerves have got to be pretty shaky.

Make that 2 for 2 for Stubbs. Linedrive leadoff single to center.
Thanks for the PBP tonight since we don't have this game on TV.
Nice to see Drew hit another dinger and I'm always happy to see Joey get a solid hit in his first at bat. Hopefully this is a good game for the Reds tonight.
BTW-I met Joey earlier today at an appearance near me and he was BEYOND wonderful. He was very personable and friendly and he seems genuinely thankful to do what he does for a living. He was very gracious to all the fans and was so cute with the little kids who were there. It was a great experience, one I know I would NEVER get at Redsfest, and I'm very glad I went to meet him today. I got a picture with him too which makes the whole thing even better!

An MLB.com reporter asked what one thing Votto couldn’t do. “I can’t skate or play hockey,” Votto said. “Well, I can skate ... but I can’t stop.”
The Marlins announcers speak highly of the Reds. Say they're a much better team than their record.

Francisco K's on a breaking ball for the 2nd time.
Cantu with a lead off HR to tie the game at 1-1. Just cut it inside the foul pole.
