Another picture from the game.

REDS WIN!


Last night I had the opportunity to be a part of history. I was in attendance when Jay Bruce drove the first pitch he saw in the bottom of the ninth inning off the batter's eye in centerfield. It was an amazing moment. The moment was so surreal, I am not sure people knew what to do. People were screaming, jumping up and down, high-fiving total strangers. The ballpark went nuts. The players went nuts. The announcers went nuts. It was an incredible moment.

Cincinnati has been waiting for 15 years for a moment like this. It was great for this town and this team. The Reds are a relatively young squad and if the owners can keep them together, this will hopefully, be just the first of many division titles to come. I don't know how far they will go into the post-season. I would like to see another World Series come to Cincinnati. But, first let's just enjoy the current moment.

Congratulations, Reds! The 2010 National League Central Division Champs!
