2. I will be making my first trip ever to the Western and Southern open today, courtesy of our friends at Gameday Communications. I am not sure what to expect, but I am expecting to hear a lot of grunting and possibly some celebrities sightings. I plan on taking pictures throughout the day and I will upload them this evening. I feel like this event may be one of the most underrated in the city of Cincinnati, how often do the absolute best of the best all come to Cincy in any sport. Only once a year, and that's the Western and Southern Open.
3. Creeping back in are our fighting Cincinnati Reds. Sitting only .5 game out of the first wild card spot and 3.5 back of the Central lead. After completely the sweep the Reds are off to a 5-1 start in what we will refer to from now on as the "Necessary 17". I believed that the Reds needed to go 12-5 in these games in order to make up some ground to give themselves a change to win the Central again but that would mean that they would close out this stretch going 7-4. This is very logical and should be the bottom end of what to expect, they will not win every game against the Brewers but you have to win at least 5 out of the 7.
Bonus: If this doesn't give you goosebumps and get you excited for some pennant race baseball, I'm not sure what will. The greatest sports moment I've ever been a part of live. Hands down.
