Reds got spanked! haha

I would hate to be a Reds fan.

it would suck being a reds fan

Would just like to remind everyone that each loss just counts as one game, whether it is a 1-run heartbreaker in the ninth-inning, or a 21-run pasting that was over from the start. All that matters is the W or the L that goes next to the game. And Monday's game gets an "L" no different than any of their other losses. Personally, I would rather my favorite team get beat like that rather than to lose a close one that they should have won.

I'm a huge Reds fan, and as an example I'll use that game on Friday where they blew a late 3-0 lead to the Cardinals in part due to some "questionable" managerial decisions. While I have already forgotten about the blowout loss to the Phillies, I am still steaming over that loss to the Cards.

Anyway, the topper to the story is that the Reds have come back and won the next game after the blowout, 4-3 over the Phillies! So even though the Reds have been outscored 25-5 over the first two games of the series, Cincy has so far earned a 1-1 split. Now how sweet is that? :rockon:
