things were so bad that year Bale got hurt
and they had to replace bale in the rotation.
The opening day rotatino was Haynes, Dempster, Graves, Anderson, and Wilson. By August Haynes, Dempster, Graves, and Wilson were on the DL, and Anderson was released.

I could've sworn Taveras touched that ball when he left the box
making it foul.
My senses are at their peak attentiveness, and the ghost and the cheshire cat sitting in the room with me right now agree.

is anyone tracking them?
it ought to be possible to pull the ball/strike calls from gameday and correlate them with umpires.
i’m sure the union is doing it, but is anyone sharing with the rest of us?
Did they really say that the girl Jim Day 'was with' is tired and in bed
Also, that Jim Day is missing?

that double play would move the needle a lot more than it probably will.
i dont like when the reds bunt
but only because i dont like hearing thom talk about it for the next three batters

Unless it’s in the final stage of a tournament, and then they’ll play an extra thirty minutes or two. There was a game recently for the Greek Cup that went to penalty kicks and it took 17 PKs to decide.

These type of games just wear you out

I still can't believe they didn't walk Gonzalez.
Their only good hitter…only runner that matters is on 2nd…1st base open…creates force plays…
He sits alone...Reds are not home.
One of the reasons these games go on for so long is the fatigue
hitters mentally and physically begin breaking down
