I loathe Thom  and frankly the entire Reds broadcasting outfitz. Tv, radio.   They are all such self hating nihilists.    

The whole batch of em are crusty cranks.  I get a lot of Reds games here locally in Indy on TV and radio.

I'm just amazed that while he is signing off on his career the Reds hit a home run, which he dutifully calls before going back to apologizing.  Maybe the Reds could use him as a rally monkey - when they need a run put him up to apologize again.

When they play the Indians we can choose between both broadcasts.  I actually watched the Indians broadcast because they talked a lot more baseball

The Reds have an LGBT-friendly mascot that looks like Tickle Me Elmo, after a three year bender.

I bet that he was talking about Columbus. 

We will probably never know....

For Giolitto, I think it was a case of when, not if, he did something like that.

Giolito gave up just one walk in his no-no. 101 pitches, 74 strikes. It was an easy night on the pitch count.

Jayson Stark mentioned a universal rule when you get the DH in both leagues...but only in place of the starting pitcher.  Once the starting pitcher comes out, you lose the DH spot.  I kind of like that.  There's an incentive to keep your starter in longer, prevents fans from having to watch pitchers hit, but still implements late game NL strategy.
