I generally like Jim Kelch and Chris Welsh in the TV booth. But during the first game tonight, there was a five-minute stretch of the broadcast with a real Alice in Wonderland quality. Kelch felt the need to clarify the Reds hadn’t yet been eliminated from the postseason, despite the team being 20.5 games out of the second wild card spot with 30 games to go and having an entire starting rotation comprised of rookies. Minutes later, Chris Welsh defended Bryan Price starting the likes of Skip Schumaker because the fans don’t want to see a bunch of rookies.
We’re all mad here
