In the bottom of the 5th, Stuart Fairchild led off the inning by hitting a looping fly ball to right field. Miami Marlins right fielder Jesus Sanchez ended up over-running the ball and couldn’t quite get to it, allowing it to roll to the wall, allowing Fairchild to get to third with ease. However, Faircild also over ran the stop sign and, with some nifty sliding, was able to score on the play to give the Cincinnati Reds a 2-1 lead.
That was the last base runner the Reds would have until Joey Votto drew a walk in the bottom of the 9th.
