As the Reds See It
Daedalus has a fever, and the only prescription is a closer. Tee-hee.
JinAZ has love for Milton, Felipe, and Freel. At least one of them gets to play every day.
Chad at RLN quotes an official news source. Imagine that.
JD of Red Reporter attended the game, rain delay and all. He says:
I'm 100% in favor of having Reds cheerleaders after seeing them in person. Pretty nice addition to GABP.
I'm appalled! To think, a married blogger drooling over baseball-related members of the opposite sex on the Internet. For shame!
Yesterday, Shawn named his post Reds Beat Pirates and I snarkily wondered what he'd name all the rest of the game wraps again Pittsburgh. Today, his post is Reds Beat Pirates Again. Consider me schooled.
As the Pirates See It
Bucco Blog suggests that perhaps Jim Tracy is mismanaging the team. I don't know much about the Pirates, but even I would have Craig “Thor” Wilson starting these games. --P.S. While you're at Bucco Blog, check out the Sean Casey GIDP Watch. I was amused.
Mike Boyko of Buried Treasure ponders the losing streak. He says that the last time the Pirates started the season with five straight losses was 1974, when they started with six losses. The 2006 squad will have to lose nine in a row if they want to take the record from the 1955 squad.
Quoth RHM: “Mike Boyko of Buried Treasure ponders the losing streak. He says that the last time the Pirates started the season with five straight losses was 1974, when they started with six losses.”
Did he happen to also mention that they won the NL East that year, with a record of 88-74, despite the crappy start?

Quoth RHM again: “I’m appalled! To think, a married blogger drooling over baseball-related members of the opposite sex on the Internet. For shame!”
Of course, we all know that nobody here on RHM would ever do that.
Seriously, I didn’t know the Reds, or any other MLB team for that matter, even had cheerleaders. Ball girls, maybe, but cheerleaders? I thought that was a football thing. I hope they only have them behind the screen in back of home plate. Otherwise, some poor, defenseless girl is going to take a foul ball in the back of the head, sue the team for millions of dollars, and the Reds’ payroll for next year will have to be cut so low, they’ll be even worse than the Pirates.
Assuming, of course, that it’s even possible to be worse than the Pirates.

Stay tuned for tomorrow’s post: Reds win again and again and again!
Hiya HMZ. No, he did not mention that the Buccos won the NLE that year. I had to find that out from George Grande!
Hiya Shawn. That’s exactly the kind of title I can get behind.
