The end of this novel...
And almost as soon as they had arrived, the Pirates sailed. No one wanted them to leave, but the tides were still low. The booty had been salvaged and the Reds felt good about it. They hadn't felt this good in a long time. Things were going to change. That's what Aaron said with his look.

Reds.com fan post of the series
I agree our offense is terrible. Saying it's not won't make it better.I would like to know who tells these guys to take two fastballs over the plate and then be forced to swing at garbage in the dirt. I thought they were being paid to swing the bat not to take pitches. If that is the way it is then we might as well have kept Dunn.

When Chris Welsh predicts a Willy Taveras steal.

What I saw, heard, felt, smelled, tasted
Is there anything dumber than a two-game series? Why didn't they play a doubleheader after the Friday night rainout? Harang is ready to lead. Taveras is ready to run. Dickerson is ready to play everyday (won't happen). Alex Gonzalez and Ramon Hernandez are ready to become platoon players.
