I wanted to wait until after Opening Day thread over, because Opening Day in Cincinnati pretty special. Cincy TV Channel 19 covered the parade great. I liked it more than New York Macy's or Pasadena parades, because it was more Local of schools from Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana. I enjoyed the parade on TV, and it shows there are a lot of good Kids and Grown Ups to be proud of in Our Area.
OK, so a great parade followed by an Opening Day loss. Greene didn't go enough innings, only 3. However Lodolo and Ashcraft did much better and got the ball to Diaz to finish. Reds Win Opening Series.
Now Reds winning Opening Series may not mean jack to some, but I don't think the Reds won a series in April of 2022.
So Reds beat Pirates. Now for Reds to beat Cubs. The Reds only won about 4 games last April. It looks like Reds could do much better this April. Pitching and Defense wins a lot of games. It may turn out that Reds have the best Diaz brother closer.
And I love that games go about 2 hours now. Games going 4 hours was so boring. Love the pitch clock, Love that the shifts are gone. No more players standing around looking at their shift cards, which was boring. This has players back to making great defensive plays again. Also more stolen bases again due to larger bags and such. The Game will be better, and The Reds will be better, so it's a big improvement over how dull baseball had became with those 4 to 5 hour games. Announcers no longer have 4 hours to fill with some of the worst broadcasting I ever heard. 2 hours keeps them talking more about the game being played.
So GO REDS. Get after Cubs and have a good April. Last April after the strike lockout was awful, only around 4 wins. Follow beating Pirates with getting after The Cubs.
