MIAMI – Cincinnati Reds manager David Bell admitted he was running out of things to say about rookie sensation Aristides Aquino. It’s one of the best months ever by a Reds hitter.

Aquino added to his legend Thursday with a two-run homer in the first inning, his second homer in as many days against the Miami Marlins at Marlins Park. It was his 14th home run in 27 games this month, matching the franchise record for home runs in a calendar month. He tied Frank Robinson (August 1962) and Greg Vaughn (September 1999).
