Felix Bautista looked absolutely unhittable when he struck out Joey Votto with a 100-MPH fastball in the eighth inning. Unfortunately, looks can be deceiving.
Bautista hung a splitter to the next batter he faced and Brandon Drury did not miss it. Drury whalloped the ball 372 feet over the left field fence to break the tie and secure the lead for the Reds. Cincinnati held on for a 3-2 win and secured a series victory.
The blow came after Baltimore fought back to tie the game at two. Cedric Mullins got the Birds on the board with a sacrifice fly in the seventh, and Anthony Santander evened the score with a no-doubt home run in the top of the eighth.
