Playoffs

Jim Mora voice

4 in a row.

Maybe Price was the problem.

They actually resemble a Major League Baseball team. That’s nice 

Harvey looked sharp.

5-0 since adding Harvey

6 in a row and a sweep in LA. 

That's awesome. 

Go Reds. 

Believe it or not, first reds game I’ve been able to sit down and watch. Hour and a half delay and then homer gives up 4 straight hits to start the game.  Fucking Christ. I’m turninf Netflix on. 

Bailey has been a scrub this year.

It was the first game I attended this season. Just awful. 

This has been an incredibly frustrating game to watch..have they all been like this?

I'm surprised to hear that was your first game..you usually catch 20+ games a year right?

I've slowed to about 10 a year in recent years, too many other things fighting for my attention. At my peak I was attending 40-50 a year. This year I have two games that were planned before the season started (Friday night with my mom, and a future game with my wife and her siblings and their spouses). Outside of those two I won't be spending money on the Reds this year as ownership appears to not care that the wheels are falling off the rebuild.

Really isn't worth spending money on going unless you just want something to do.  We all have just so much $$ and time to go around and when an organization is such a shitshow like this it just doesn't make you wanna go through the hassle.

So instead we took in a Clippers game this weekend.   For reds fans....had a Matt Belisle sighting!  I thought it HAD to be a different one but nope...same guy apparently.   Also...an Adam Rosealis sighting as well.

Exciting game.   Clips gave up the lead in the top of the 9th, only to have a walk off GS to win it in the bottom.

First and third no outs, don’t score a run and lose. Great night of sports for me!!

Scooter Gennett is hitting .330 with a .918 OPS

Crazy finish last night..turned it on and saw the bottom of the 9th.

Rocks have bases loaded and no out.  GB to votto and a force at the place, and then a line out to 2B double play to end the game!

Catcher made a great play on Vottos throw as it short hopped him.   Bad bad throw.....didn't get his feet under him and he had time. BUT..if the catcher had better footwork then he could have caught it without the short hop.

Scooter went 2/4 today and now leading the NL in batting average and only behind Mookie in all of MLB

Scooter wins NL player of the week....again

His 2nd time in May
