Looks like the roulette game is on to see which pitcher will be "off" his game. Looked like it might be Harvey after two batters, but he pulled it together nicely.

I want Kipnis and Masterson to do well tonight. But most of all, I want Rivera to be pitching with a 1 run lead in the 9th.

Votto not looking like an All-Star so far.

He didn't judge the flight of the ball very well early, and the time for a full jump was gone by the time he realized he needed to.

He has always been a bitch, quite frankly. But he is a hell of a pitcher.

NL gets their first hit, but the other 3 hitters, including two Reds, pound it into the ground. On virtually the same ball, did you notice how much more hustle Wright showed than Phillips?

In that case, I hope he strikes out Phillips and hits Votto in the face!

He was the only player not to acknowledge by a cap tap and he had the bitch face on....I hope he gives up about 4 runs.

JJ Hardy just hustled his way to a RBI by busting it on a seemingly DP

That was quite the praise. I know you have stated you dont think he is as good as guys like McCarver make it seem. I still am not sold he is better than Alomar.

But laley....he caught the ball barehanded from 15 feet away and then threw it to 1st......Alomar could never do that.

Also, I now dont want Masterson to pitch. I just learned Cleveland will push his next start to Sunday if he pitches today instead of Friday. Fuck that noise!
