Travis Wood will probably throw a perfect game tonight.

Choo failed to keep that solid drive to LF to the short(right) side of the notch!

Great 3-2 pitch by Travis to K Votto looking with the back door cutter.

Reds 38-18 in Latos starts and I'd bet that at least 6 of the losses were blown saves.

What a weird ball flight on the blooper to Cozart that he had to dive to catch, and the dive was back the other way from how he was moving to start! I'd bet the super slo-mo would show the ball went of the bat when it broke and went back up against the broken fat end and rolled down it, putting lots of spin on the ball like a flicked shot off a hockey stick.

Bruce with a big break with the ump calling the 1-0 pitch a ball.

A great play by the LF to nail Meso at 2nd on his scorching bid for a double to LCF.

Extreme impatience by the Reds. First 3 base runners were all promptly erased with no one left on base in an average of one pitch after the runner reached.

Bruce singles, then 2nd pitch Ludwick hits into 6-4-3 DP.
Meso singles and is out stretching before another pitch.
Choo hit by pitch and Frazier hits into 5-4-3 DP on the next pitch.

This could be said for 7 innings during any given game.

Tremendously good throw, catch, and tag by Choo and Frazier for a critical out in the 6th.

Sure glad Ludwick back inspired the offense to wake up...

Distraction of Frazier on 1st helps BP which results in a 2-0 lead for the Reds!

Agreed. Frazier made him pay attention enough to throw a mistakr

Did Ludwick have a hit in his rehab stint?

3 hits, 1 HR I think. This was like 30 at-bats too. He wasn't very good.

DRob or Heisey would have caught that LCF drive by Murphy with 2 out in the 7th.

Thanks. I thought I heard the same thing.
