I'll start this shit.

Reds win 3-0 on 3 Choo HBP's and 9 stolen bases. Reds get no-hit.

Jacoby is impressed by team's approach.

Pitching match-ups.

Game 1, Cubs.
Game 2, even.
Game 3, Reds.

This is the one Cincy needs to steal. They always hit well at Wrigley, especially Votto. Lets hope it's the start of something...schedule is favorable coming up.

Possibly one or two letters off. But something like that.

Weird that BP is getting a day off after a day off.

Let's hope some other guys step up, because it seems like BP has been the only one producing lately.

On the board early after two straight K's from Choo and Cozart.

Well done Joey and Frazier.

Big rip double by Frazier scoring Votto.

Votto is SLOW! It was with 2 outs and with his lead off 1st and secondary lead off the pitch it took him 12 seconds to get home and he got a good jump and never missed a step or slowed up.

I know we don't need his speed....just really looked slow.

I think Cozy struck out on 1 or 2 pitches.

He's no burner by any means. But he seemed much slower there than usual. I'm going to blame that on the cold.

Bruce swung up in the zone at a 3-2 curve in the dirt. Guessing badly....

Leake gets 2 quick outs. Now cubs threatening.

If you don't mind I'd prefer to blame Jacoby. Thanks in advance!

X with a chalk line double.

Leake will knock him in.

I thought for sure votto would get a hit there. He was pissed after that first pitch. His body language changed instantly.

Reds we know are back.5 pitch inning. After getting hits off him for 2 innings working the count, they're now swinging as soon as they step in the box. Productive.

A 5 pitch inning should result in a session of counting stadium steps.

Arroyo and Leake piss me off so much.

Neither are reliable or consistent. I'd NEVER wager on either one in a big game or going up against another quality pitcher.

Yet each somehow manage to put up modest enough numbers to end up with average stats, and thus, stay around.

It's fools gold. There's no way either of these guys can be counted on in a playoff game...
