#8 and #9 hitters Marte and Wynns
11 for 14 - 5 runs scored - 13 RBI
Currently Wynns' OPS is 1.227 and Marte is now hitting .316.
What an opening week for Austin Hays who went 4 for 6 with a walk today.
6 games - 12 for 28 - .429
1 2B - 3 HR - 8 RBI - 2 BB - 6 K
Hays and Lux each scored four times today as Lux was 2 for 4 with three walks.
Major props to Brent Suter. 63 pitches was about 43 more than I was expecting from him.
And congrats to Randy Wynne for notching his first save. He earned the call up with his 3.06 ERA in his four starts as most of the AAA starters are not doing well.
4.85 Drew Parrish (4 starts)
4.76 Chase Petty (4)
5.89 Aaron Wilkerson (4)
7.50 Carson Spiers gave up five runs in seven innings in his one start
4.15 Sam Benshoter in one start and four relief appearances
3.60 Andrew Abbott in two rehab starts.
Steer with two much needed hits. I believe that this was Steer's first game in the field. I hope that this is his spark.
And, even though he didn't play today and they lost yesterday, Matt McLain may not be my favorite Reds player anymore. Jose Trevino plays winning baseball and that goes a looooooong way in earning my fandom. He's great at receiving the young pitchers and has been outstanding at the plate.
