Corky nearly cuts it to 4-3, but 2' too low. Luckily Lutz got the one run in, but the regulars couldn't do any more in the 1,2 spots with a runner on 2nd.

For the love of God, at least not batting 2nd...

Seriously, Paul and Robinson would be so much more of a fit. At least those guys have somewhat of an eye...hell, Robinson has like 7 walks already in limited PT.

This goes for anyone but building off of this...Should they have kept Hamilton at SS and put all their baskets into re-signing Choo?

No way Hamilton can play SS. He can barely play CF...

Needs lots of work defensively, despite being very athletic and quick.

This team may just not have 'it'

I'm not trying to panic, but damn they just aren't clutch AT ALL.

I don't think they have been "very clutch" for the last 20 years!

The good news is, the NL has about 2 or 3 good teams. The Reds aren't playing well right now, but it's basically going to come down to just beating out the Pirates, Rockies and Diamondbacks for a spot. I wouldn't be completely sold on the Cardinals either.

Coincidently someone started managing 20 years ago and hasn't been clutch either.

Seriously, what it Dusty's record in playoff series'?

Is there a more overrated/over-respected manager?

If gay marriage is legalized in Ohio, Thom Brennaman might propose to Sam LeCure.

Seriously, he's all over his nuts every time he takes the mound...

Not sure but he's been swept too much and been the manager in 3 of the 7 worst choke jobs in MLB history.

Dusty is terrible...my dream scenario is being a shade under .500 and Walt canning Dusty.

Hires a competent manager who knows how to manage this team, and they win the Central.

I realize this team has been frustrating quite often this year. But I think people are starting to freak out over nothing.

After this game, the Reds will most likely be 18-16 through the first 34 games.

Last year, the Reds were 18-16 through the first 34 games.

Let's calm down a bit before everyone starts stepping to the ledge to jump.

Just had to post this.
Blazing speed of Hamilton helps him score from FIRST on a Soto single to shallow right. 6-4 #Bats. #SeeBillyRun

Corky might not score from 3rd on that.

The good news is...the Reds have smoked the bad teams. 12-2 vs Philly, Chicago and Miami. None of those teams will make the playoffs.

Losing tonight, and that marks vs PIT (0-3), vs STL (2-4), vs WAS (3-4), vs ATL (0-2). Not very promising against the teams they will be facing in the postseason, Dusty's nemesis.
