And just like that the Reds pounce on Carp’s error. This game is frustrating watching the Cards inept offense. And Carp is a horrible 3B. His defense is beyond awful.
Beautiful at bat there by DeJong and Fowler. Fowler was done 0-2 and worked a walk then DeJong fouled two strikes to get his pitched which he parked over the wall. 6-2 Cards!
That outburst occurred right after the broadcasters noted how effective the Reds bullpen had been recently.
Non-save situation with the four-run lead and Norris is in for the eighth. Who gets the ninth?
I like bringing Norris in for this innings with the heart of the Reds’ lineup. I’m assuming Hicks isn’t available after pitching 2.1 yesterday.
This tweet isn’t related to this game but I found it cool. Check it out:

JMart with a bad day at the office 1-5 and 6 LOB but Fowler has had an awesome day. 1-1 with a single, 1 run, 1 rbi and 4 walks!
Cards win 9-2 as the rain falls to sweep the Reds in the three-game home series. St. Louis’ record is now 13-8. Off day Monday.
Holland dominated the Reds in the 9th! 11 pitches with 7 strikes! Nice outing from him. We will need him to be sharp.
Offense finally came alive, Mikolas and bullpen were solid. Only big qualm is Carp…looks lost in the box and in the field.
Like I was saying earlier this week, you’d have to be borderline cRaZy to not believe we were going to sweep these guys again this weekend. These Redlegs are so horrific that I think they need to add a new column to the standings. Of course we already have the columns for “W”(Wins), “L”(Loss), “GB” (Games Behind) and “GBW” (Games Behind Wildcard). Why not for 2018 have a “GRR” for (Games Remaining with Reds)? Since any team can basically count a “GRR” as a win, it really gives we fans a glimpse into how things are going to shape up in the divisional and wild card races….especially in the NL Central, where it’s teams are the fortunate recipients of many “GRR”s. Now Cincinnati fans can fear not as this “GRR” column may just be a one year thing. Next year during the month of April if the Reds look as if they are serious contenders to win 40+ games, then the “GRR” column can certainly be removed.
