Game 10: Reds @ Pirates (Game 1/3 - M.Leake/A.Burnett)

McCutchen's 7th Inning Homer Sends Redlegs Reeling to Their Third Straight Loss


By Ryan Bramwell

CIN (5-5)  5  8  0
PIT (4-6)   6 12 0

W: Tony Watson (1-0)
L: J.J. Hoover (0-3)
S: Jason Grilli (4)

Box Score

  • Brandon Phillips homered twice in this one giving him four on the year
  • Mesoraco finally got the starting nod behind the plate over the struggling Ryan Hanigan and promptly doubled and knocked in a pair of runs
  • Jack Hannahan looked good in his first start this season reaching base thrice with two singles and a walk
  • Mike Leake was once again "bad Mike Leake" on the mound tonight as he gave up five runs, all earned, on 10 hits thru six innings pitched.  He walked two and struck out two batters. Mikey's first two starts have not been pleasurable.
