Edwin Encarnacion hit a three-run homer in the bottom of the ninth to give the Reds a thrilling 6-5 walk-off win last night, at least in part because he wasn't listening to Jeff Brantley disparage him on the live telecast. Brantley: "Encarnacion has struck out three of his last five ABs… He hasn't hit the ball out of the infield… He had a terrible spring training… TAKE HIM OUT OF THE GAME! … This guy is NOT a clutch hitter… He's not a clutch player."
Brantley was about to add that Encarnacion cheated on his taxes and once set an orphanage on fire, but his clutch game-winning home run got in the way.

So does Dusty know how to Manage or what?!?! Who's with me?!?!?!
Never mix mullets and microphones.
"Is it clutch?!!"
*covers mic*
"You bet your fucking sweet ass is it, Jeff."
Chad Johnson wishes he can leave Cincy faster than that ball left the field.
Waaaaaaay too much Cincinnati crap today, Uff. What’s next, another Bob Huggins DUI? Lil’ Bow Wow get raped again? Marge Schott dropping N-bombs from the grave?
November 21, 1963: Brantley says "Its impossible to assassinate a president in modern times"……"A man can't be expected to shoot a moving target from hundreds of yards away"……"There's no need to put secret service around the car."
"IN YOUR FACE HOMEY!!!!" "How yah like dem apples?!"
Brantley doesn't deserve that last gold chain he treated himself to.
"What do you mean you invested in this company called…'Micro…soft'? THAT'LL NEVER WORK!"
"The Knicks are making a terrible mistake bringing Willis Reed into the game when he's so injured. It's almost like they're giving away the championship"
Brantley is the baseball equivalent of Sean Salisbury…minus the dick phone-photos.
I'm still pissed he couldn't get the bunt down and had to swing at the 1-2 pitch.
that's not Mark Grace? he does FSN telecasts for the Dbacks and I know it says FSN OHIO but that sounds exactly like the Dbacks announcing crew.
Brantley's middle name is HOKE and he's from Alabama, nuff said.
and we all KNOW people from Alabama HATE people from Tennesse cause they's all snitches… HOKE? TP2151, what the F*** is a HOKE. I thought it was Jokey and he's a smurf.
