The Vegas o/u on David Wright Homeruns this season was 21 1/2...The unders must have puked when David came back...

Hit four!!!!!!!!!!

[Zvon]

Harang should have a big Red chip on his shoulder. And we get to see that lil hot rod from hell, Bill Hamilton.

[Lefty Specialist]

Time for a pre-game snack.

[ashie62]

Playball!

Cueto's arm has been dodgy of late...

[ashie62]

179 hits so far...Maybe a career year for Mr. Murphy...

[Zvon]

Mets looking good in the blue tops. Another beautiful looking stadium that looks a lot like all the other new stadiums these days. As most of them, the outfield and beyond gives it its personality. Beautiful view.

Duda up with walkin Wright on 1st. 2 out in the first.

He's been a joy to watch. Even the valleys. You can see him searching for his way back. Peaks have been ludicrous at times.

Play at second base has not been an issue for me. He's really stepped that up.

[Zvon]

Haha, and just then they show he's second in errors at second. I still feel he's been pretty solid there.

[Zvon]

Muffy making me look bad. Reds take a 2nd inning lead on a Choo RBI single.
Harang walks the bases bloody. 2 out

[Frayed Knot]

UGH!

[Guest themetfairy]

And he walks in a run.

I'm ready to pull the plug on the Aaron Harang era....

[Zvon]

Walks in a run. 2-0. I figured if any game this would be the one we'd get the best from Harang. WRONG!

[Zvon]

lol. That is funny Keith. I love that logo. The best for any sport. But Mex does have a point.

[Zvon]

Beautiful ballzy bunt single by Eric. No out, 1st and 3rd. Murphy.

[Frayed Knot]

If these two pitchers stay in the game for the next few innings there's no way this game will end before midnight.
It's like a remake of 'Slow and Slower'

ha. Nice job by Duda to make sure he got that ball in the air. Who'rang tags.
Hey! YOUNG! WHATrYAdoin?!
Tries to steal third.....FAIL.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

I know Cincinnati isn't exactly the Florida Keys, but good gravy, are these Reds pale. I mean, it was just summer for three months there, too, wasn't it?

[Zvon]

Votto should just walk from the on deck circle to first, save some time.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

"Paint It, Black" is the walkup music for the guy who missed time with panic attacks/depression? Curious.

[Zvon]

Smooth play by Phillips, but he aint all dat.

Harangs line doesn't look bad but yet I feel like he's been pitching like shit. Still chuggin along in the 5th, looking for a groove. I'd settle for him finding the plate.

Yeah, a 1-to-6 K/BB ratio isn't exactly what you're looking for.

Yea, that is part of his line, isn't it? I would have pinch run for him after he reached on error in the third. I would be such a nutty manager.

[Zvon]

Buzzy got in some good blows there.

[Zvon]

That Hamilton kid sure can steal.

Big K FF!

[Zvon]

Ugh, crap. Byrdak can't do his job. Choo lead off double in the ninth. Laggy slips but they are right, that ball scooted by him. Future Met on second, no out. And I feel confident in saying "Thaaaaaats Allllll Folks!"

wow. WOW. Its just a matter of how. Choo steals third on the errant pick off. We had him hung out to dry too.

[Zvon]

We get one. Nice. Nice well placed heat to Phillips by Aardsma. Votto may as well walk from the dugout to first base.

[Zvon]

Don't pick at Ludwick, go get him.

[Zvon]

Lud pops out to shallow Murphy. I'll be impressed if we get out of this. Bruce will be walked. It'll be up to Frazier.
