Talk about epic fail.

Wait till seasons end. After the break he will start breaking down. He looks 45.

Berkman 11 HR, 34 RBI, .353 AVG

And Votto gave him a signature pissy look on that DP

Jay Bruce with great base running which turned into 2 runs. Many players don't read the ball early enough to even attempt 3rd...which led to the errant throw and Rolen getting to 3rd instead of 1st.

Know where your outfielders are playing and watch the hit ball you can see without turning.

I thought Phillips might purposely drop that ball to make Carpenter run the bases.

After Rolen's error Berkman hits a slow roller to 3rd and it is bang bang at first...Rolen did all he could, Phillips turned it quickly but Votto has his foot arch in the back potion of first base and wasn't fully stretched either towards the angle of the throw...those slight flaws may have been the difference. Wood fortunately gets out of it on his own.

Pujols with an error.... Some of the tough overspinners are being missed off the wet infield dirt...the big boys aren't sacrificing their bodies today.

Pete always looks like he is tourist in Hawaii circa 1984.

But today he has his insurance man dress shirt with a black reds lid.

There's been some seriously nasty hops in the infield today, and the Cardinal infielders are just getting eaten up!

Phillips plays that ball the same that Welsh is bitching about....but he makes that play more often....but Stubbs ripped that ball onto the wet infield for a tough in between hop. Stubbs has been fortunate...but he's hitting it pretty hard and this is proving how much better he'll be not striking out 150+ times a season

How is Chris Carpenter going to explain to his son the Reds ringing up 6 on him?

Did you see carps reaction after the play by Greene. I bet that IF hates him. Seems like a terrible teammate!!!

He will probably say the reds made the mound to muddy for him. And the balls were juiced. A-hole!!
