Reds have made this staff look like Phillies staff.

^It's amazing. They're hitting pitches in the upper half of the zone straight into the ground. It takes talent to accomplish that.

Holy guacamole. Renteria can't field the throw from Masset at 2nd. This has been a circus. The Cubs rubbed off on our Reds.

They scored that an error on Masset when clearly Renteria had it in his glove.

5-1 now. Cairo can't field a hot shot to his backhand side. Rolen would likely have made that one.

Might as well cancel the season they are done.

Nope, just cancel games with the Pirates.

Only thing done is Kobe.

Low blow.... :cry:

I am going to go ahead and call the walk off grand slam.

Hope that is just an abberation and they get rolling for this long road trip.

How great this is; they sweep the Cards and sweep a miniseries over the Cubs than lose two straight again to the Pirates. Can't say I anticipated losing 5 out of 6 to the Pirates at home.

And the Cardinals are back in 1st.

Was going to post this yesterday but never got a chance. The Reds offense after the Cards series have gone into the tank. We hit terrible against the Cubs but they gave us two games and the Pirates ate our lunch. Three runs in two games. Now we going on the toughest road trip of the season and the Reds are searching for offemse. We need to win five but unless we hit ithe Reds may struggle to win three.

Yes, the Pirates are improved and C. Hurdle has put some life and much needed confidence in them. Having said that they are still a bad baseball team and there is no way around that,the Reds should have beaten them. Alot of teams have trouble with a team that they should dominate but for whatever reason lower themselves to that teams level and not play well.

Now the Reds had better get it in gear, the Indians are very good and this is the start of a road trip from Cleveland to Philly and Atlanta. This trip could very well bury them way down below the Cards.
