• Luis arraez had 4 hits yesterday . Back to back 4 hit games. He has 20 hits in his last 8 games. The reds have 25 hits in their last 5 games.
• Fernando Cruz and Alexis diaz had back to back great outings
• Sam moll… not great. Some would say he hasn’t been good this season and that everyone overreacted when he got sent down
• Hurtubise had an RBI base hit
• Nick martini hit the game tying two run shot. Out of the last 16 home runs hit by the reds, that’s the only multi rbi home run

• The reds have 4 wins in the month of may.
• Luke maile said the bats were finally waking up: last 6 games… 4-3-2-2-0-3
• Tyler Stephenson didn’t play yesterday. Yesterday after the game bell said there wasn’t the right scenario where he could be used. The reds started 4 guys hitting below 200. I’d argue any time those guys stepped up to the plate was the right time.
• The Reds are 20-30 and sit 8.5 back of the division lead
• James Paxton is 5-0 with a 2.84 era. He will take on graham ashcraft who has a 4.25 era. First pitch at 710

MAILBAG

• todays letter comes from little Rick. From Mr pitino’s class. Rick is a second grader at st pats in Louisville and he is on the fast track to becoming the greatest golfer of all time.
• He has a 3 handicap at just 8 years old!
• Rick went to Valhalla last weekend to watch his favorite golfer Scottie Scheffler try to win another major championship
• But sadly, little Rick on the way to the course, saw an egregious act. Scottie tried to escape the police and break through a crime scene ruining an 80 dollar pair of pants as he dragged an officer to the ground!
• Little Rick couldn’t believe it so he went to the Louisville police department and requested the body cam footage of the incident because he backs the boys in blue.
• Unfortunately they denied him access because the officer didn’t activate the body cam footage which is against policy.
• So little Rick did some more digging. He found security footage from a mile away and noticed something peculiar.
• Turns out the police officer might have exaggerated the incident as nowhere on the video does the police officer fall down or damage said 80 dollar pants
• Now little Rick will be filing a complaint against the department for slandering an innocent man!
• What are your thoughts?
