REDS WIN AND GO TO .500!

By: Cooper Ledford
The game I went to vs. the D'backs the Reds won! Here's how the Redlegs did it. Johnny Cueto was on the hill for Cincinnati trying to pick up his 8th win of the season, Johnny pitched 6 innings giving up 0ER and only 1 hit, which was an infield hit that deflected off of him, walked 4, but did manage to strike out many. The games lone run came in the Cincinnati 6th when Joey Votto hit an RBI single to left-center to score Chris Dickerson from 2nd to make it 1-0, and that would end up to be the final score. However in the Arizona 7th there was a scary moment when Arthur Rhodes had the bases loaded and 2 outs with the batter being Felipe Lopez. It was 3-2, a walk would be a run, an out would be great, a hit would be a disaster. The pitch was a pop-up to Jay Bruce in right-field to end the inning, and the Reds would get out of trouble and not allow a run to score. In the top of the 8th David Weathers gave the Reds a 1-2-3 inning, and so did Fransico Cordero in the top of the 9th to pick up his 19th save of the season and more importantly seal the Reds 1-0 win over Arizona to make them (Cincinnati) a .500 team.
