San Diego 4 8 0
Cincinnati 6 9 1
By Ryan Bramwell
- Bronson Arroyo didn't seem to have much in the tank but he was still able to do enough to earn a win for the Redlegs. Arroyo went six innings and gave up four runs on seven hits. He walked a pair and struck out one. A relatively average day for a pitcher, but it was enough this time around.
- Ryan Ludwick. What else can you say about this guy right now. I just did a peice on him the other day about his ridiculous July, and now he starts August right where he left off. Ludwick went 3-for-4 with a homerun and four RBI. This makes two straight games for Ludwick where he had a homer and four runs batted in. Somebody is super, super hot. Here are his current stats: .264 BA, 19 HR, 56 RBI.
- Drew Stubbs reached three times with a pair of singles and a walk on the night. He also scored twice. Stubbs continues his second-half surge and has looked very confident doing so.
- Zack Cozart hit a leadoff home run to kick off the first inning for the Reds. It was Zack's 11th on the year.
- Jay Bruce and Todd Frazier both contributed with a double. Bruce also got an RBI on his double.
- Sean Marshall, Jonathan Broxton and Aroldis Chapman pitched a terrific final three innings of work.
- Broxton received a standing ovation from the Cincinnati faithful after he pitched a perfect 8th inning. He notched a strikeout and two soft ground balls while only throwing a total of 11 pitches.
- Chapman got his 23rd save on the season and his 15th consecutive save conversion.
- Wilson Valdez (replacing the injured Brandon Phillips) walked twice before he had to leave the game due to neck stiffness.
