    Man, that's ****ty luck. It takes a really hard hit ball directly at someone to double off Pence.

    DARNNNNNN.....Wasting oppurtunities vs Santana is a reciepe for disaster.

    It may be time to give Pence a day off he looks twisted in knotts.

    True, but it helps that Hunter is reaching for bad pitches.

    So, Hunter is 0-for-9 now with the bases loaded this season.

    Berkman has almost never missed extended time over his career other than one stretch several years ago when he was recovering from surgery.

    It will be interesting to see what the offense does over the next 2 weeks.

    Even when Berkman isn't hitting/slugging the ball, he's still getting on base at an elite or near elite level. Walks are almost as good as singles.

    Well Hampton is killing the middle innings which I love to see....
    64 pitches through 4 is perfect...6 innings maybe 7 effective innings would be great!

    Santana hasn't gone past 7.1 IP this season. He's on pace to do that for the first time. There is a long way to go though.

    What a terrific AB from Keppinger. If nothing else, he made Santana work.

    Harang hit the 1st HR of his career tonight. The Reds ended up losing but Cubs fans were squirming.

    Amazing he can look washed up and useless but then throw 4 quality innings and hit a 2 run blast...

    Bourn should try and steal 2nd...
