Is it legal for this Walden to jump forward off the rubber like that?

This Reds offense is just so hard to watch. Seems like they never get a clutch hit.

LOL...how does the 3rd base umpire miss the trap call. Pisses me off that umpires aren't held accountable for being terrible.

X with a great AB and his getting on to lead-off the inning was foiled by an umps call that could easily be overturned by replay.

Well that would've been a run for the Reds.

Hard to bitch when they've given up 2 shots to the SS and a monster shot to a fast bench player.

I wouldn't call that terrible. That is hard to tell at live speed only seeing it once!

Braves prevail in starter vs. starter by 2 runs and by one run in the contest between bullpens.

Looked more like a trap live than it did a catch.

Definitely a trap.

Then again, Cozart with a piss poor AB and Votto K'ed. Would've been up to Phillips with the bases loaded and 2 outs...not sure the outcome would've been much different.

Frustrating game to watch because despite the Reds having the tying run up 4 different times, you never felt they had a chance.

Except he didn't actually tag him.
