The All-Brandon-Phillips-Show Shuts Down Brewers as Reds Take First Game of Series


By Ryan Bramwell

MIL (15-18)  3  8  0
CIN (20-16)  4  8  0

W: Alfredo Simon (3-1)
L: Yovani Gallardo (3-2)
S: Aroldis Chapman (8)

Box Score

  • Phillips: Solid.
    • 2-for-4 with a walk, a home run (6) and two RBI (31)
    • Made one of the best defensive plays of the season so far when he turned a double play after barehanding a bad shorthopped ball and throwing to first base all while keeping a knee on second-base to get the force out and spinning on said knee to enable a quick toss to first-base to complete the double play.
  • Bases on Balls: The Reds drew 9 walks including three from Choo and two apiece from Frazier and Votto
  • Ryan Hanigan: Returned from injury today and went 2-for-4 at the plate.  Yay!
