The Reds clinched the NL Central tonight
And did it in dramatic fashion with a game winning Jay Bruce home run in the 9th.

2. congrats to the Reds

4. Good. Maybe now the Cardinals will realize it's time to fire LaRussa
No disrespect meant to the Reds, who stayed consistent pretty much all year, but the Cardinals gave up in August. They've all but quit on LaRussa.

5. I am a Reds fan again!
Went to Crosley Field & RiverFront, guess I need to shake down some vendors for tickets.

6. Hopefully I get to see Mike Leake in the playoffs
He just got off DL but it is unclear if he is going to pitch anytime soon. Dusty Baker seems to be taking it cautiously with him.

8. I would love to see them eliminate Philly down the line

Philly's bottle throwing fans deserve as much.

9. Hey now...
Edited on Wed Sep-29-10 12:02 PM by TZ
I went to a Nats game where there were OODLES of Philly fans and they were EXTREMELY well behaved folks. I think its only a few drunk ones that give them a bad name. Also I've heard alot of nice things from people about their players (Chase Utley does animal rescue) and I went and saw Jimmy Rollins place..he has a lot of picnics for inner city kids at his really really nice house. In fact Philly is my second favorite team behind the Nats...

10. Check out Zimmerman's walkoff against the Phils
From about a month ago---Philly fan actually threw a bottle at a flying baseball. Happened as the ball flew over the fence.

12. It's not 'hugh', it's one of the many obnoxious Philly fans
And yes many, not all, throw stuff.
