Reds vs. Oswalt: Guaranteed Loss

If you're a Reds fan, and you ever find yourself with tickets, and those tickets are for a game in which Roy Oswalt pitches against them, you might as well just stay home.

The guy's 18-1 lifetime against the Reds, with another one tonight in the bag.

You'd think the Reds' advance scouts would have found a way to beat this guy by now. The Reds can beat every other elite pitcher in the game, but not this guy. Unreal.

"I really love him as a fan," Scott Hatteberg said.

Those are the kind of words spoken by a team that doesn't have a problem with a pitcher getting a guaranteed, easy victory every time he pitches against them. Instead, this team just rolls over. No difference in their game approach, no difference in their aggressiveness. They just roll over. It's pathetic.
