The Reds got off to a quick 2 run first inning
off of Devon Patry. The Red Sox came right back and went ahead. Devon started to
pitch harder but the Reds turned on the hit switch. The Red Sox came racing back
to tie the game 7-7. that's when the Big Red Machine went into high gear and put
five runs on the board. Every Red had a hit or walk and 8 hits on two strike
counts, coupled with some key defensive plays decent pitching made it tough for
the Sox. Game ball to Andrew Saxton who after being hit in the face in a
previous game played a mean first base, pitched in relief and was 2-3 with a
double and 3 RBI.
