Cincinnati Reds outfielder Yasiel Puig talks MLB 2-game suspension Fletcher Page, fpage@enquirer..com
Jesse Winker said confidence didn't waver during his 1-for-21 start at the plate in the Cincinnati Reds first nine games.
Reds' first base coach Delino DeShields made sure that didn't happen.
"Every time I hit a ball hard and touch first and run by Delino, he says, ‘Hey, it’s a marathon,'" Winker said. "I appreciate him doing that for me. It’s one of those things where you just kind of keep your head down."
Winker and the Reds' offense broke out Tuesday in a 14-0 blowout of the Miami Marlins.
