Over time on this team he would struggle as the ability is there but time with Dusty would have him not being patient and eventually swinging at bad pitches and not doing what leadoff hitters should do.

I wish the Reds could've offered the Red Sox for a struggling Jacoby Ellsbury for whatever they needed. Way too late now.

Good timing play by Votto and Leake to get the first out on Torres at first.

Can Leake handle the prosperity? The Cubs scored 5 in the first, but lost 13-5 to the Cards.

Even better for a pitcher than coming to bat before you have to take the mound, is taking the mound and getting them out 1,2,3, and then getting to bat in the first in a sacrifice situation!

Love this at bad from Edgar. Even if he gets out, he's making bumgarner throw a bunch of pitches.
And that didn't look like a strike...

Wow...ump takes over a good battle....bases loaded Renteria with 2 strikes fouls THREE balls off of his foot then gets rung up on a ball inside...ump tired, all about the umps.
And....this game is far from over.

Reds pitchers always seem to give up runs after the offense gives them a lead.

Bumgarner gets a 1-2-3, 9 pitching inning... I hate when the reds get a lead then just start hacking at everything. Need better at bats!

It's a fuckin error....this is the big leagues and that is a god damn error because he's trying to be flashy instead of getting his body in front of it. He's gonna win the gold glove regardless....that is an error and everyone knows it.

I've never understood why MLB doesn't assign an official scorekeeper to each team. Most of the awards are voted on by the voters just looking at stats, so it would be nice if they were accurate.
