CINCINNATI — A vintage CarGo show rolled into Great American Ballpark on Tuesday night as the Rockies beat the Reds 9-6.
Carlos Gonzalez opened his act in the fourth inning with a laser throw from right field to nail Tucker Barnhart trying to stretch a single into a double. But CarGo was just getting warmed up.
In the seventh, Gonzalez launched a three-run homer into the stratosphere off reliever Wandy Peralta. When the ball landed near the faux steamboat beyond the wall in right-center, it had traveled 473 feet, according to Statcast.
