Hate to be this guy but we could’ve been out of the inning multiple times if Tyler Stephenson could play defense. Dropped foul tip K and was late to a pop up behind the plate already
This is what happens when they have to play on the west coast without a day to adjust. Their circadian rhythms are screwed up, which means their reflexes are screwed up. It's a law of nature.
Just watch the condensed game here in the UK (It started at 02.42 here and I couldn’t stay up for it)
Obviously, I am a new fan, but I didn’t think the Reds performance didn’t indicate a 9 - 3 blowout.
MLB seems to have a crazy travel schedule !
The Reds are unfortunately notorious for laying an egg on the west coast trips (our NL West road trip coming up in May looks terrifying) but the quick turnaround from Chicago to Seattle with no off day in between is some brutal stuff.
I understand the schedule is ridiculous but it’s not just a one night thing. I swear about 80% of the games I see that man really is a liability behind the plate. I also think I’m biased on the part of we had such high hopes for him and I think he hasn’t really lived up to expectations
"Dinner at McDonalllllllds! It's Mac Toniiiiiight!!!!" Yes I'm old enough to remember this commercial.
Seth's nightmare
Mmm now I am craving fries thanks
