The Good
–With the Reds down 5-4 in the bottom of the ninth, Joey Votto led off with a single to right field. Adam Duvall followed with another single. Brandon Phillips popped out to left, but then Scott Schebler strode to the plate.
Schebler, of course, was making his first start since being recalled to the Reds in the wake of yesterday’s trade of Jay Bruce to the Mets. Did he wanna make us feel better about the fact that Schebler is playing instead of Bruce?
Well, he absolutely destroyed a baseball, a long three-run bomb down the right field line.
