Broadside blast! We did it in Seattle last year, too! When's the last time we had 2 grand slams in a game? Brian Reynolds hit one from each side, the grand slam right-handed; he's got to be the best switch-hitter in the league right now, bringing back memories of Reggie Smith. Gotta load the cannons for the rest of the series.
They're reminding me, a little, of "the big red machine." Those guys hit HR all the time. Aspirational peers. Any club would do very well aspiring to be clay carrol, lee may, johnny bench...etc. I know, its like making a movie and showing clips of a better movie in your crappy movie... All it does is make you wish for the better movie. Reds fans had a belly full of wins back then. A nice ride. But the season has been fun Pirates. That's all that matters. Fans can tell when it stops being fun. Not close yet; heck, skenes can throw! Cruz sends fastballs into the river. Rowdy can run! It's fun.
