The Joe Nuxhall Memorial Honorary Star of the Game
Homer Bailey gets it for me. After a lengthy rain delay, Homer came out a little skittish, giving up hits to the first two batters, eventually having them both score, but settled in nicely to go 6 innings and only allowing those two runs. The Reds’ offense didn’t have it tonight, but Homer kept the Reds in the game. Hard to ask for much more than that.
Honorable Mentions are due to: Eugenio Suarez, with two hits. Drew Storen, who had an impressive 8th inning, upping his trade value ever so slightly.
