I wish votto would drive a ball there. Instead of looking to go the other way. Now it's up to Phillips since Bruce is on deck to strike out.

Classic failure by the 3/4 hitters ends the inning just 2 batters after the classic 1/2 set-up.

A bad job is what happened, and a mediocre job would be a tie game.

I don't think I've ever seen that one before! Sending the runner from 3rd back to 1st after an apparent SB and E-2, saying the bat hit the catcher on the swing and a miss at the pitch.

Why is Leake throwing anything near the plate on 3-2 pitch with the pitcher coming up next?!?

Ouch, a 2 out 2 run HR. A case of being too careful on the #7 hitter with 2 out, and the #8 hitter until you go to 3-2, may as well give him a walk and see if they pinch hit up 2-1.

Reds won't even score 4 combined today and tomorrow. Pathetic.

I don't know why, but every time I see Tyler Clippard pitch I want to punch him in the face.

Why was Leake throwing anything close to 4 balls on the #7 hitter with 2 out and none on?

Only reason they've 3 instead of 1 is Desmond's defense!

Choo hits a rally killing HR - too early for the long hit!

Votto misses tying the game by 2ft, but he got a triple out of it.

Good job by Votto to get to 3rd on that one out drive off the wall, and it pays off with a WP run to tie it at 5-5.

LOL...I was watching the plate like, "where the hell is he?"!

Chapman strikes out the side, using that nasty slider today.
