11-3 win

And yet, my heart stirs not.

Things to note:

1. The Reds hit no home runs. OMG, small ball!
2. Cueto is pitching better of late.
3. CONTRACTION! Why the heck does Miami still have a franchise? And they want a new stadium. Can we say WASTE OF MONEY? Cut 'em out, move Pittsburgh to the NL East, get rid of the Deadbirds, and everything will be a'ight. What? The Deadbirds draw a lot of people? Ok, then, get rid of the Tampa Bay team, whatever Jeebus name they're called now, and move the Sausages back to the AL where they belong. Then give us Tampa's players.
4. Ken Gimpy Jr, nice catch. Does it mean you won't play tomorrow?
5. Babe The Bruce Almighty Boss should stay in the second spot in the lineup for awhile.
6. That Alonzo guy looks like Poopholes. (He was on E$PN at the same time as the Reds game.)
7. Snory Patterson sux.
8. Benjamin Harrison was the first sitting president to see a Major League Baseball game - Reds and Nationals in 1892.
9. Yeah, they were the Nationals in 1892.
10. Jeff Brantley can be flat out annoying. George Grande is flat out annoyinger.
11. Yeah, I know annoyinger is not a word. And Jeff Brantley is not a cowboy.
12. Goodroyo or Badroyo tomorrow?
13. This was Davy Concepcion's number. It was retired last year.
14. It's pronounced HAIR stun, not HairIstun, George.
15. If I could type the notes to that song "Tequila!," I'd put it here in gold and substitute "Sombrero!" for "Tequila!" In honor of Dunn's line, of course.
16. Why couldn't we have used about six of these runs over the last three losses?
17. I salute those 164 people who bought tickets to sit in the rightfield seats.
18. I hate the Deadbirds, the Bankee$, the Dodgers, the Braves, and Deadbirds.
19. Cueto gets his first Major League hit. Anyone else think he could be a Norris Hopper type hitter? This would be great - for a pitcher!
20. This is just to get to 20.

Oh, and Mark Berry - Worst. Third base coach. Ever.

I am not excited about this win. My soul must be dead, crushed by the weight of the heartbreak I've carried for too long. Give me about ten more of these in a row, and things might change.
