per FayJuan Francisco came up limping when he hit a single in the eighth inning today, and he left the game. The Reds said it was a cramp in Francisco’s left calf.
Francisco started at third base for Scott Rolen. Rolen often rests when a day game follows a night game.
What dooo you know- Reds win!

I'd rather listen to Kelch read the phone book than suffer through Thom Brennaman's attempt to make every instance on the field the most important event since the discovery of manned space flight. -westofyou
Went to the game with the family today. Man, was it cold, probably the coldest game I've attended. My 9 year-old wore shorts against advice, said to me shortly after we got there "hey dad, my legs aren't cold anymore because they're numb."
The offense definately helped warm us all up though. We bought bleacher seats three rows from the top (stub hub), got 8 of us in the door for $35, took in our own snacks, so saw a Reds game about as cheap as you can these days. After we took our 6th inning free upgrade to seats lower down, we had a great view, although the top of the bleachers is still not a bad seat. A great value.
GABP is just other worldly compared to Riverfront for views. We also got a view of things from the first base side of home plate, not for the game, but for the concert. Those are some sweet seats, but unless someone gives me freebies, I won't be sitting there anytime soon.
Ramon's Grand Slam was in the first row of the same section we sat in. Lucky for us we attended the only winner of the weekend!
