Ho hum . . . another seven inning, one run performance by Greene. Yawn. ERA down to 2.83. He is on cruise control right now. He was normally hitting the 100 pitch mark by the 5th inning. Thank Frankie Montas for telling him to quit wasting so many pitches when he has two strikes.
Ty France in his last nine games after a 1 for 12 start - 9 for 31 . . . .290 batting average with three RBI on three solo shots.
It's pretty wild, isn't it? The Reds are 4.5 games back from the third wild card spot held by . . . the Braves? Currently 2-0 against them with three games scheduled in Cincinnati and one more "postponed" game in Atlanta still floating around. It was initially scheduled for September 9th, but it was moved back to postponed status a couple of days later. The Reds are 8.5 games behind San Diego and Arizona, who are on another planet right now. The Reds were one game behind Arizona on July 9th . . . . they have gone 15-13 since and they are now 8.5 behind the Diamondbacks.
The Padres are 18-4 since the All-Star break after going 1-6 leading up to it.
Arizona is 19-5 after the break, on a 23-6 run right now as they were 4-1 leading into the All-Star game.
