What a wild game it was last night, I really wish the umpires had just called the game over instead of waiting almost three hours for the rain to stop. It would have been a complete game since the Nationals batted in the top of the fifth.
As it ends up the Reds still won (thankfully), but man the bullpen really blew a huge lead and it was a one run lead for the last three innings. The Reds had an eight to one lead going into the sixth inning and Owings and Bray did a bad job. Combined they gave up six runs and only pitched one inning.
Luckily Masset, Rhodes, and Cordero combined for three score less innings and the closer pitched a good one, two, three inning. I was pretty tired after watching that game.
I was glad to see Bruce get that double, it was a solid swing and hit. Hopefully he is coming around, and I hope that Rolen comes back today to bat against Strasburg. I'm not sure if Miguel Cairo is a good match-up against Strasburg.
The Reds need to keep winning since the Cardinals are on an unbelievable win streak right now.
