To start the game, Cincinnati got off to a quick 2-0 advantage with both second baseman Jonathan India and right fielder Nick Martini blasting home runs. Later in the fifth inning, it was left fielder Spencer Steer‘s turn, knocking a three-run bomb to extend the Reds’ lead to 5-0. Every single homer came off of New York starting pitcher Marcus Stroman, rough!
The pinstripes tried to pull off a comeback, getting back two runs in the bottom of the fifth after first baseman Ben Rice and catcher Austin Wells hit home runs themselves.
