Episode 7: Game 11, Part 1

Last weekend the crack technical staff and I met up with my chick-blogging Cardinals fan counterpart, bellyscratcher, for a couple games and some partying in St. Louis.

We usually sass each other on-line during Reds-Cardinals games, but since there wasn't a convenient Internet connection for miles, we just recorded ourselves instead.

Today's podcast features highlights from our conversation during the pre-game and the first inning from Saturday. I've got my crack audio editing staff working on the rest of the weekend's audio for future installments, but I got sick of waiting and insisted that we just post whatever was ready right now.

Love Shack makes his triumphant return!

Lancaster says he was in the locker room after the game, and Gosling was already optioned back to Louisville. Should be officially called up before tomorrow's game.

Now all I need is some Wags back with the team.

Goodbye Burns, Hello Gosling

LHP Michael Gosling has been called up from Louisville, and Mike Burns optioned to Louisville to make room for Gosling on the roster.

I won't swipe RHM's thunder by doing a whole game wrap here, but Gosling celebrated his return to the majors by giving up a mammoth dinger to Abercrombie in today's game (493 feet, the third longest homer in GABP history). The Reds still won it to take two of three from the Marlins, just like I said on Sunday that they should have had no trouble doing.

Now it's on to Milwaukee to show the Brewers who's boss. GO REDS!
