Not sure how you can call the bunt by Bruce dumb. They are essentially giving him a base hit, so why not take it? He is now 6 for his last 6. The base running play was dumb and is something that little leaguers know not to do. It cost us a run. Total breakdown by Zito as he walks three...

We haven't been able to get the runner in from 3rd w/ less than 2 out all year and it was no different tonight. If we get 2 timely fly outs we win this game 6-5. This is what is most frustrating about the team...right now.

It's absolutely unbelievable what Hamilton has been able to do this season. The best part about all the stolen bases is that he has shown the aptitude to be able to get on base at a high enough clip to get them. He currently has a .405 OBP and a .845 OPS, which bodes well for the future as he...

Where are you seeing the Francouer rumors? He would be a definite upgrade over Ludwick and a good pickup, especially since Heisey just strained his groin. He is another swing and miss type though, which we all know the Reds have too much of. He'd definitely give the Reds the best throwing...

What a horrible and then great play by Mesoraco. Thats pretty heads up.

Poor play by Frazier. He simply cannot take a walk in that situation with Ludwick following. He's young, he'll learn.

Where is everybody streaming from?

Exactly. Making the playoffs was the worst thing to happen in 2010, because Baker got credit and 2 more years on his contract. I realize that most think Baker used the pen correctly tonight, but in my mind he did not. There was no reason to take out Bailey when he allowed the bloop hit to Berry...

Wow, Chapman for 2 innings tonight. Our bullpen has absolutely dropped the ball tonight, so to speak. Hopefully Chapman can pick them up.

I like him hitting 6th. Without him 6th/7th we have nobody to drive in runs. Hanigan should be hitting 2nd, but he plays Catcher so that isn't happening.

Frazier is coming up clutch. He's driven in 6 of the last 8 runs for the Reds.

Thank the lord. A walk off safety squeeze gets the run home and the Reds win.

I hate to pile on Phillips, but where was he on that? I know Welch said he was pulled toward 1st, but he wasnt. He was normal double play depth and just stood and watched the throw. Bad play all around. Hanigan can't short hop Cozart, Cozart should have blocked it, rather than 'ole it and...

Hanigan can't run fast or play CF/SS. He would not be a good fit batting 2nd. Plus, who would hit 8th? Chapman finally throws a slider and look what happens. Forget the breaking ball Chappy, give 'em the heater.

Ludwick does the impossible and ties the game up. He loves the first pitch fastball.

Yep. The inability of this team to get the runner in, or even to make contact w/RISP has really been the our downfall this season. Anything can happen when you put the bat on the ball, ask Garrett Jones; yet we consistently fail to do so. It's so frustrating and might cost us this victory...

If you are referring to the .212/.293/.336 stat it is called a slash line and represents: Avg./On Base Percentage/Slugging Percentage. Essentially these stats say that Negron does not get very many hits, as per his low average; does not draw an excessive amount of walks, as per his low on base...

I'm following that thread as well. They started ripping the kid's intelligence level because in a recorded interview with MLB Network he quoted Happy Gilmore, said he played hockey and that his favorite pitcher was Roger Clemens. One poster said that there might be a few D.U.I.'s in Travieso's...

Altidore came in for Torres. This game looked like it was our third in eight days. Just didnt have a spark and looked disoriented in the attack. Better now then on Friday I suppose.

He certainly wasn't able to do it well. Mike Piazza played catcher and Jose Canseco played RF. Does that discount the difficulty in playing catcher/RF the same way you imply it does for 1st? It shouldn't.
