Eckstein even looks like a smarmy little turd up there.

This game is about 1 inning from being over. It's a shame, because this was our best pitching matchup of the series. Just being realistic. We are playing right into the strength of the Padres tonight.

Oh man. The hall of famer Eckstein made an out, and George almost cried.
This is the time. The real Reds organization is back.
I'm not sure what we could be doing differently. Votto can't play. Arroyo's slop facilitates SD's running game, as does their never ending cavalcade of anonymous speedy guys. Their ballpark has eaten two surefire HRs at GABP plus another possible homer. The only thing Dusty could do differently is put someone else in LF, but Heisey is a complete mess at the plate (I would still argue that the tire fire that is Jonny Gomes is worse, but I see the point).

Are you serious? That just happened.
Holy crap.
