Isn't that the old Adam Dunn love him or hate him on offense argument? It depends on how you feel about Ks whether you love him or hate him!

Cabrera with an AB that is untypical of him with a runner on 3rd and less than two out!

I'm fine with strikeouts as long as there isn't a runner on 2nd or 3rd base with less than 2 outs.
*I love Adam Dunn
*Adam Dunn strikes out too damn much.
*Players like Drew Stubbs who can beat out just about anything MUST be good contact hitters to be worth their while.....right now he is not.

The Reds have really been fun to watch. Finally something to be excited about! Hard to believe it's 8-0, and was a pitcher's duel prior to this inning. Six walks in one inning, unbelievable.

I'm not trying to take away from the Reds offense (seriously)....but if you have rewind ability....go back and look at the last two shots by Gomes and Hernandez and look where the catcher sets up and look where the pitch is........absolutely center cut
Now maybe Stubbs can whiff for the 2nd time this inning

The very bad error and the 3 walks by the first relief pitcher have killed the Cubs in the 7th, and for the game.
