I saw this same pitching matchup in person at Wrigley back in April. Needless to say, I don't have much faith in a different outcome today than what happened in that game. Josh Fogg sucks, someone please tell the Brewers that.

Hopefully we can get at least one of these teams in the wild card chase to lose today other than Florida. It seems like everybody is playing well right now (or it could be that every team in contention has been playing crappy teams).

Awesome matchup. Reds will win this one for sure.

Swell, three hours of batting practice for the Cubs.

Let's go Reds! Get some runs!

 

Or not.

[wibadgers23]

Reds score in the 8th to get within one run. Unfortunately, they had Patterson and Paul Bako leading off the 9th facing Wood.

phillies lose!

That's nice that we picked up a half game on the Phillies as they along with the Cards are our biggest competition (IMO).
