OnlyBucs

blooper to right, and now it's 6-2

Moustakas up, can make this a 1 run game, hitting .462 against the Bucs this season

single loads them up again.....tying run comes to the plate, and Nero is just letting this go

I guess Shelton won't be happy until the whole effing thing is gone

Peters threw 80 pitches in 5 innings, Mears now approaching 30...but let's leave HIM in.



Bucs can't turn the DP, another run scores, it's 6-3

Gamel dives again for a ball, clangs off his glove, and now it's 6-4

Mears is still out there, Shelton is apparently asleep

Castellanos up now, and the Reds can take the lead

This game is a microcosm of the ineptitude of Shelton. There was no reason to at least let Peters go out there to start the 6th, but even less reason to watch Mears just butcher this inning.

A game well in hand, and Shelton lets it get out of hand. He needed to yank Mears after the first two runs scored, instead of trying to milk an inning out of the guy. He could have done the same effing thing if he had left Peters in, and that's what is so maddening about that inning.
