    I don't see a good result for this one.
    Wow - first spot of trouble after two very good innings to start and suddenly the Reds are doomed with Homer pitching.

    Unfortunately, they are.

    Can't afford to get much further behind with Wainwright pitching

    So many ground balls finding holes this inning. That's two weakly hit balls and one hit hard the last three batters.
    This will not change until the Reds win the World Series.......

    Bad luck at play here.
    Hugs, smiling, and interactive Twitter accounts, don't mean winning baseball. Until this community understands that we are cursed to relive the madness.

    If you walk him, you walk him.

    Throwing a fastball right down Broadway on a full count isn't challenging the pitcher. It's capitulating for fear of the walk. And he did it again to Carpenter at 3-2 this inning.
    I agree about Carpenter and other hitters. But Wainwright had a good eye. And he's still 'just' a pitcher. Make him hit it.


    I just don't subscribe to the theory you seem to have that every hit given up by a Reds pitcher shouldn't have happened.

    While that's true, he's also not fooling anyone with his pitches.

    Let's look at what has happened this inning: a really hard hit double, followed by 4 ground balls that found their way through.

    I call'em like I see'em. Let's see if I continue to be right. Let's hope not.
