First pitch,Votto knew it was gone.thats the reaction Joey Votto had after his 8th inning homer to keep the reds alive.Too bad the reds closer Fransisco Cordero stopped it from meaning somthing.

Lets come back to that later.Johnny cueto was on the hill today vs. a hard hitting braves team.Through 3 innings cueto looked sharp,but then chipper jones brought in martin prado to give the braves a 1 -0 lead.But that next inning,meldan still hasent gave up a hit,gives up a 2-out single to brandon phillps.Then,the young melden had a balk,witch got brandon over to 2nd.Orlando Cabrera then tied the game with a single to center.Then votto came up big with a double to center to score Cabrera.Scott rolen then added with a RBI single.Reds take the lead 3-1.Then in the 5th,Brain mcann tied the game with a 2 run homer to left.then in the 6th,Martin Prado got a RBI ground out,so the score would be 4-3 braves.Thats when cueto went out of the game.Now to the 8th joey votto would tie the score with a solo blast to left.Next batter was Scott Rolen.He would hit a double to the gap.Then johnny gomes sacrifieced Rolen over to 3rd.So the reds would have a man on thrid with 1 out.Then,bruce struck out.and stubbs grounded out only 6 inches over the plate.So going in the 9th,the score is tied at 4.Cordero goes 2 up 2 down,then brooks conrad came to the plate.He smacked one deep into right.Reds fans were about to get up and leave when.....Chris Heisey jumped the fence and snaged the homer.Lets go to tenth.Fransisco Cordero, he gets gets one down then walks cabrera,then gets a strike out,but then walks prado.Heyward come up and doubles to left.Cabrera scores,then prado scores.prado took a bad slide into home,and possible broke his hand.The next inning,billy wagner does what he does best, gets a save.So the reds rally.......But lose in extras
