A couple game notes: The Reds’ Ballpark is widely regarded, to my knowledge, as the most HR-friendly ballpark in the MLB. I wonder if Vladdy gets going, and how the Jays’ bats will look in general. The Reds lead the MLB in stolen bases and are on pace to triple their last year’s stolen base total. Let’s see how the Blue Birds fare in the stolen base prevention game! (I’d love it if Kirk and Vladdy succeed at the ‘throw behind the runner at 1st’ play. That’d be good early in the game 😈)
