Titanic Struggle Recap: Alfredo Simon keeps on keepin’ on

The Good
–Joey Votto reached base four times, with two hits, two walks, a run scored, and an RBI. Brandon Phillips had three hits. Jay Bruce drove in two (he now has 51 RBI) with a double and a single. Ivan DeJesus Jr. drove in three.

–JC Ramirez struck out the side in both the ninth and tenth innings. Five of those strikeouts were in a row. That’s a pretty darn good outing, friends and neighbors.

–In the 11th inning, score tied 6-6, Tony Cingrani loaded the bases with no outs. Bryan Price went to the classic five-man infield, bringing Adam Duvall in to play third and posting DeJesus just in front of second base.
