Chicago Cubs at Cincinnati Reds, Sep 5, 2008 7:10 PM EDT

Don't look now, but Arroyo's ERA is under 5.00 for the first time since his first start of the season. And now that Corey Patterson's batting over .200 for the season, you'll see that look of regret on the face of Cubs fans when they realize what got away. Things are really starting to look up for the Reds. Heck, I bet they even have a big crowd down at the ol' ballpark tonight.
The Cubs are currently mired in a 5-game losing streak, their longest of the season. For some perspective, the Reds have had 5 losing streaks this season of 5 games or more. But that doesn't matter now. The Reds are in the spoiler part of their season. So, hold on to your hats because these games, you know, mean something to like one of the teams involved.

COMMON Slyde!
You have to look on the bright side of things! We have so much to look forward to, what with the……uuummmm….well….
Yeah, nevermind.

Louisville and Dayton playoffs
That’s what we’re looking forward to. Oh, and Votto needs three homeruns to tie the Reds’ rookie record for roundtrippers (three times fast). Plus Jo-eh kills the Cubs. His three homer day was a true bright spot for the season.
More storylines: Will we see the continuation of Goodroyo? He’s pitching prior to the weekend, so that’s good. Will we continue to see Competent Corey Patterson? Dunn and Griffey were holding him back from being a .240 hitter. Youngsters! Will Hanigan and Castillo get to start? And asking yourself if you’d be more excited to see Bruce hit a home run or take a walk.
Lots to look forward to!

More Votteaux stats
8 of his career 21 homers (38) have come against the Cubs, and 18 of his 84 RBI (21.4). Here’s his career line against the Cubs: .308 /.338 /.738.

I didn’t get to stay for the whole game but I was there for the homers. There were a ton of them IIRC.

correction on Votto
the rookie record for HR for the Reds was set by Frank Robinson at 38 (also was the MLB record until 1987). If Votto reaches 20 it will be the most since 1970 (Bernie Carbo). Dunn and Hamilton both hit 19 in their rookie seasons, though in fewer ABs than Votto currently has.

its like Jewish church
the Sabbath begins at sundown on Friday and ends at sundown on Saturday, which is why Saturday is traditionally the Sabbath day for Jews. weekly services are held on Friday night to celebrate the beginning of the Sabbath.
at least, thats how i understand it. im pretty new to this Jewish thing.

so we were talking and out of the blue he tells me, “you know the devil isnt real?” and i said “oh yeah, what makes you say that?” and i swear the kid is a genius, cuz here was his reasoning. he says “well, my mom says that cartoons arent for real, and the devil is on the cartoons. so that means the devil isnt for real.”
