Another great piece from the Redleg Nation

Brian, in a typically strong content piece, looks at the misery that was May.

Some excerpts:

As mentioned Dunn and May have had their problems since his first May in 2002.




June is particularly a good month historically for Dunn .267/.399/.547, hopefully the pattern will continue


The 2005 Reds scored more runs in May (145) than any team since the 1976 Cincinnati Reds

152 Runs in May 1976


There was a little debate about Adam Dunn and May on Redszone. OK, May isn't his month. I noted there his OPS is 13th among NL Ofs with 100 PAs during the month, and that's not too good. If he goes on a tear and evens things out, all the better, and there's no reason to think he won't.

Finally, he just kind of slipped that last thing in. We haven't scored this many runs since 1976 as a team--almost 30 years. And yet we stunk...(I think I recall the 1976 team was pretty good). Gee, think its the pitching?
