Joe Nuxhall Memorial Honorary Star of the Game
Laynce Nix. Even though Scott Rolen had four hits and Bronson Arroyo pitched a great game, the Daynce Mix gets the nod because of his two home runs and three RBI.
Key Plays
- We scored a lot of runs.
- We left a lot of men on base.
- They scored a lot of runs in the ninth.
- Todd Coffey pitched three innings, until Joey Votto and Laynce Nix beat up the ginger like they were Lovie Howell and the movie star had been slutting things up with Thurston.
- I would like to drop a coconut on our skipper's head.
Other Notes
- It is late and I can't make sense. Feel free to attempt to do so yourselves in the comments.

"I would like to drop a coconut on our skipper's head."
Not many coconuts up in Wisconsin. The best you can hope for is a D-Cell battery.
29 more losses to 100. Being a Reds fan should be justification for medical marijuana.
An African swallow maybe
But not a European swallow! That’s my point.

Suppose
two swallows carried it together?

love the comic art
consequently, i recently went to comic con and bought a bunch of green hornets. anybody familiar with this line? other than bruce lee as kato and the seth rogen movie…
What do you mean, "blank slate"?
i'm disapointed
i want Arroyo to get his ERA under 4 a reach 200 innings and I want Votto to pad his stats, but i want this team to fucking suck.
Bloop
Don't worry
The Reds won’t disappoint.
They fucking suck

That was a great recap
That Howell stuff is hilarious. I don’t think it’s just the jet lag and late hour either. Jim Day’s odd behavior has really put me in teh mood to laugh though
I get up from my nice cozy bed
Mosey downstairs to get bowl of cholesterol lowering Cheerios.
And this is what I find?
When I went to bed it was like Reds 6 – Crew 1
WTF happened…no don’t ell me…it has got have something to do with Dusty Baker…
Why didn’t Bronson stay in the game and finish it off?
Well at least my boy Laynce drill another HR to win it.
I’m telling you Nix is a keeper. 
WRONG NIX

Nah, Baker handled the pitching well, I thought.
A bunch of singles off Cordero by the Brewers in the ninth, a walk by Rhodes, a GIDP ball deflected by Rhodes, and McDonald recovers from uncorking two terrible throws to home to nail the winning run on a short fly ball to left.
I can’t really blame it on anyone. It’s late August and winning doesn’t get you anything anyway. I’d be mailing it in too unless I’m Stubbs, Fisher, or anyone else playing to impress.
As for the griping about runners left on base . . . who freaking cares? If you don’t hit homeruns, you’re always going to leave guys on base. It’s a meaningless statistic when you score runs. They shouldn’t count the runners who knocked someone else in.

They should just be happy that they had runners to leave on base for once
This was only the third time this season that they had 20 base runners in a game, moving them into a tie for last place in the Majors with the Astros. The league average is 9 times. The Reds are 2nd to last in the Majors in number of plate appearances with men on base. No wonder they don’t know what to do when that happens.

So, we raised ourselves into last place?

into a tie for last place
we used to be there all by ourselves.

Yeah, about that...
Stubbs ain’t exactly setting the world on fire. Better than Willy, yes. But Stubbs needs to get it in gear.
Phone's ringing, Dude.
28 plate appearances

What do you mean, "blank slate"?
That's the last of that generation of Kennedys, right?
His sister just died a week or so ago.

It hurts in the pool or it hurts personally?
We need an update I think. Celebs are still dropping like fly balls in GABP.

Crass and wholly inappropriate, but then again, so am I
