No comment- Grandal is in the line-up

Let's Go Bucs!!!

I'm in Maryland so I expect no slacking and running out every post, to take this series.

Coach them up best you know how. Grandal should be DH, Bart needs to suck it up can't have noodle arm against these Running Reds.

See you on the victory side when I get home.

Good day to be a left-handed batter. He's hit two of the first three batters, both right-handed.

Cruz.

Nearly picked off 1B. Very close and Reds challenge but safe call stands. Before throwing another pitch, pitcher throws to 1B again and Cruz is dead out. No doubt about it. What a moron. Not a brain in his head. He just doesn't learn.

Impossible. How is he able to feed himself? This guy is unreal. Million dollar talent with ten-cent brain

I just logged in and read this and, you know what? Not surprised a bit.

Nice seven pitch inning by Ortiz in the 5th. Still 2-0 Bucs.

Espinal sure has been a pain in the ass this series. He’s taken over for India.
