The bad.  The Reds were picked off 3 times.  And had 1 caught stealing.  To be fair, one Brewer pitcher had a borderline balk move.

In early spring, Francona mentioned that his managerial preference was to leave a player alone after a 1st mistake.  But confront him, unlike Bell did, if a second one occurs.  

We'll have to see if Francona can really fix the bad here.

Must have been the one Dunn got picked off on. When they showed the replay i thought how is that not a balk?
