The Reds are actually outhitting another team, but a Chris Getz home run has them on the wrong end of a 2-1 scoreline. Arroyo seems to have pretty good stuff today, with five strikeouts already. The Reds can still pull this out!

I guess he was the leader of that team
and one of 3 (I think ) African-Americans on the team that yearlong with Vada Pinson and Tommy Harper.
They won 92 games that year and finished second.

6-4 by my estimation
"It seems as if every mistake I've ever made in life I've had an erection in one hand and a Bud Light in the other."
I think so
I never went to Old Comiskey but I think they wanted it to look reasonably similar. Good sightlines at the Cell, easy to get to, and no Cubs fans.

not a good throw from Hanigan
Mmmmm, boy that Hennigans goes down smooth. And afterwords you don’t even smell. That’s right folks. I just had three shots of Hennigans and I don’t smell. Imagine, you can walk around drunk all day. That’s Hennigans, the no-smell, no-tell, scotch.

That's three stolen bases for the Sox tonight!
Is Arroyo’s leg kick really that much of a factor? I haven’t checked any splits, but Hanigan spent the first half of this season as, basically, Arroyo’s personal catcher, and he managed to throw out runners then. I’m shocked.
Just got home. Great game so far. Listened to the last coupla innings at work.
1.) Taveras didn’t start, did he?
2.) Right before BP hit that homer, Marty was mentioning that he hadn’t had a home run in weeks. BOOM!
Needless to say, this didn't work and everybody died.
Holy shit

We know the Cubs won. Lucky bastards.
Brewers down 7-4, bottom of 4, but in a rain delay.
Cardinals winning 10-5, bottom of 8. They, apparently, can beat the Royals.
Pirates and Astros both losing.

Was this the amidextrous pitcher/switch hitter bit?
iirc they changed the rules after this game so that the pitcher has to “declare” which arm he’ll use against that batter.
