Clown ***** Shoes you piece of shit fucktards. I hate sports in this town. ***** hate it. I wish i could push a button and say **** sports forever. 

I think Francona kind of did Pagan dirty there.

27 pitches and just walked a guy... and he leaves him in there.

So, how will they embarrass us on Pete Rose Night? Two hits, twelve strikeouts? Starter can’t make it outta the first inning? Throwing error into the stands during a tie game by Error De La Cruz? Catch a guy or two sleeping on the basepaths? The possibilities, with this team, are endless!

Every game that goes by I become a bit more convinced this team is doomed to wallow into oblivion. They find a way, or several ways, to shoot themselves in the foot nearly every game.

We're 4th in the league with strike outs - 392 EDLC and McLain are both near the top. Like you say a comedy of errors. The list just goes on.

We're already digging a big hole and the June schedule is very tough. If they don't get their crap together, and fast, we're going to be looking forward to next season......again.

Gonna get shutout again ?

Still 0 for 26 with runners in scoring position, how is that even possible. 
Basically a whole game, 27 outs you can’t get a hit with a man on 2nd or 3rd base. 
That’s gotta be a MLB record for ineptitude.

Reds are playing like the lost decade of the Bengals.

Good news -Finally the streak is broken at 0-26 with runners in scoring position.

Bad news - another streak just started 0-1, with runners in scoring position.

I'm done listening for the season. This team is a joke, and Francona can't get anything more out of them.

I wonder how much Cleveland misses Valaika.

Big two out two RBI single by Will Benson in the 1st inning. The Reds needed that and so did he.

Nice base running by De La Cruz to grab 2nd on the sacrifice fly. Then he crushes one in his next at bat. Sweet!

His 8 triples in half of a season tied him for 5th in MLB with Ahmed Rosario, TJ Friedl and Shohei Ohtani. Bobby Witt Jr led the league with 11.

Martinez looking sharp through four perfect innings.

We've somehow reached a point where we have to look at the upside that at least we didn't get swept by the 2nd worst team in baseball White Sox.

Hey a win finally - yipeee

It’s weird, I had a premonition that they’d score more than 1 run today. Trends and whatnot.

Today's game has been moved up to a 5:10 start time because of approaching weather.

Benson with another bomb!!!

I would love to know how many times the Reds get burned playing a shifted in field. Seems like every time the Reds are in a shift , the ball gets hit in the vacated hole.

Does anyone have says on how many times the shift works, versus how many times it doesn’t?

Hey back to back W's, a trend in the making?

FIVE whole runs scored early yesterday, then nothing. Maybe they're saving the other five runs for today? Or sandbagging them for Sunday? /hmmm

I guess it's time again to make a guy who had a 6.66 ERA last year look like Cy Young.
