Even though I only read Mark Sheldon tweets, the Reds box scores, and a trusty source, I could sense the tension for Joey Votto as he took an 0 for 9 skid into his game yesterday against the Brew Crew. Joey was swinging the bat but just not getting the hits to drop.
Until yesterday. He drove a ball off of Chris Capuano to break a 1-1 tie and propel the Reds to their third win of the spring.
The irony of baseball allowed for Jared Burton to come in in the fifth inning and blow the save, then pick up the win all in one inning of work. Burton is still trying to prove to the staff that he belongs in the pen and can be a set-up for Masset or Rhodes on their way to Cordero.
The Reds got smoked by the D-backs on Tuesday, but battled back with a win on Wednesday against the Angels.

Is this blog only going to be about the Reds?
