CINCINNATI -- The Reds have not squandered many opportunities with the bases loaded lately. In the sixth inning of Sunday's game against the Brewers, Jose Peraza came to the plate with the bases full and one out with Cincinnati already leading 4-0.
Peraza fell behind in the count 0-2 after seeing a pair of sliders from Milwaukee right-hander Aaron Wilkerson. He fouled off two fastballs and took another one low for a ball. When Wilkerson offered a fourth consecutive fastball, Peraza sent a towering drive that narrowly cleared the left-field wall for his fifth home run of the season and his first career grand slam.
