Tough loss. Great start from Burke. You hit some homers. Reds get 4 lucky hits in a row all in one inning. Then they hit two lazy flyouts to beat you with the Manfred man. Outplayed them in this one but you'll have to do the next two with a worse starter and no closer.

Some of these pitchers need to miss more bats. It’s why a lot of these bloops are taking place. Meanwhile guys like Colson and Murakami are striking out at insane rates.

some of these relievers are gonna piss themselves in a playoff game, book that

Not convinced this team will make the playoffs.

Absolutely pathetic. Venable killed the flow of the lineup with his dumb decisions. Why was Grichuk allowed to face two righty relievers?

Will is getting worse by the day. He is terrible. This is getting old blowing games like this.

Right behind that Friday night Astros collapse at home

This is way worse

I hate Manfredball extra innings.

The good news is they’ll have plenty of time to go to movies dressed as superheroes in October.

Brazoban should have been in, instead of Hudson. Elly is so much better against LHP.

Reds executed, simply...even though nothing to really play for

wanted it more, in the end

Will is going to cost team the division, he has not learned from any of his mistakes. Same ones over and over.

Maybe if the Sox didn't strikeout so much they could get more lucky hits.

Ballgame.

I hate all the whining about Manfredball. Move your runner, get him in. Winning teams find a way.

Huh? Grant gave up 1 hit that was smoked.

Can't walk guys.

Bleday is not hitting him if he throws strikes

Talk to the reliever who didn't record an out first, maybe...

How can he go from closer/mostly effective to benched?

Acuna is terrible in these situations.

He has zero patience and swings at every pitch

They hit two fly balls. Meh. It’s stupid.

Two critical calls they didn’t challenge in the 8th and 9th. They’re so bad at this.

Or has a catcher challenging at the right time/s

They should give each team and inning or two of normal baseball first. Implement it in the 11th or 12th.

Nice game, Grant, well done in front of a sell out lmao, fucking embarrassment

Uh, he came in with runners on 2nd and 3rd with no one out. Huddy deserves the blame
