ATLANTA – In their final tune-up before the start of the regular season, Pedro Florimon hit a walk-off grand slam against Reds minor league reliever Jimmy Herget, handing the Reds a 7-5 loss to the Atlanta Braves on Tuesday at SunTrust Park.
To highlight the Reds’ offense, Kyle Farmer hit a two-run homer and Curt Casali smacked a two-run double. The Reds closed the spring with an 8-19-5 record.
"I think as soon as we get on the plane here, it'll hit us. We're ready to go," Reds manager David Bell said. "Looking forward to Thursday."
