Five in a row!?!?!

*Hmm... I keep trying to figure out why our layout has changed on its own, but all I've been successful at doing is screwing it up more. Not good considering Tech Support is about to move to Italy*

Well that was quite a game today. Excellent performance by Milton, though it does make you wonder why he was sucking it up so much until now. I kind of question the decision to take him out after the 7th, he was pitching a shutout game, and there were 7 runs to back him up. Sure maybe he would have given up a run, but Coffey did just that anyway. Stupid pitch counts. Milton definately didn't look happy to be taken out, but he got a nice hug from Freel to try and make him feel better. It was very sweet, though I couldn't tell on the TV whether or not the look on Milton's face was still displeasure over being taken out of the game or that he didn't appreciate the male bonding. In which case I think he should have decked him one. Though Pigpen just got off the DL, so maybe not.
On another note Kearns wasn't playing today after leaving yesterday with a tight hamstring so I hope he isn't headed for the DL. He should be in great shape right now with the success of his "program". Speaking of which Dunn has went from 240 to 275 since he started. Where's his program? Maybe if he was on one he could have hit 40 homeruns already. I have a program for both Dunn and Kearns though. It's called Christina wants you to get a haircut. Wily Mo got with the program, I think he should talk to his friends about it.
The best part of todays game though was that it started well before 10pm. Which means that right now I can go to bed and maybe not want throw my alarm clock across the room at 5am tomorrow. Though I'm pretty sure the day I'm happy to get up at 5am is the day the Reds percentage hits 1.00.

I can get on board with Dunn cutting his hair; he's got kind of a scruffy hobo look going on right now. But Kearns has gorgeous hair; I cannot condone changing a curl.

Besides, it kinda makes his ears look more proportionate.

Ah, yes. I hadn't really considered the ears, I wonder if that played a part in the new style this year.
