Disco cleared to start throwing.

Let's try to get out of the first inning with a zero!!!!

Not happening.

Can't do it as Rockies score on a two out single.

Why is it that Reds starting pitchers never seem ready for the first inning of a game?

And yet DuVall loses another easy fly ball in the sun. Reds have defense laspes it seems like every game. And they wonder why they can't win a game.

Reds counter Rocks' six run inning with one of their own. Schebler with a three-run dinger to cap it off. Reds lead 10-8.

 

Pitching a no-show today.

Reds good again.

Peraza with yet another base running blunder that took the Reds out of a rally. It never stops.

Challenge. .. find three good things in today's game and comment on them here. And yes, there will be at least three good things by Reds players in today's game.

Votto with a 2 run HR, cuts the Rocks lead to 6 to 3.

Schebler with solo makes it 6 to 4 Rockies.

When I watch major leagues I expect better baseball than watching base running, missing fly balls, etc. that I see in my grand daughters games. Giants, Cubs and Rockies don't make those mistakes so why do the Reds? I expect better and so should you.

Votto just made a good play and has had a good day offensively. Is that better?

Peraza takes off running while the pitcher still has the ball and gets picked off easily with one out and DuVall up. Our best HR hitter. That don't bother you?
