four-year-old Fernando Cruz the starter who enters from more familiar territory is these days native Bullpen he'll be in to get things going for the Reds his first start of the Season LK the fifth of his major league career yeah it's going to be really interesting to see how Fernando Cruz attacks these hitters I remember yesterday Jacob junis came in and pitched four masterful perfect Innings and it's going to be interesting to see H Fernando everyone in the world knows that he throws that splitter Butler thundered his 15th Homer yesterday a two-run shot part of the 4-run seven this one out towards right field tracking it back is Will Benson and how about a lead off Homer for lawence Butler picking up where he left off that 16 on the season you heard it from the law dog last night how much he loves hitting in the leadoff spot something he did in the minor league something he has I think really grown into here at the big league level over a short period of time law dog wasting no time bring up Brent Rooker the DH Skies one high into the Cloudy sky and left Spencer steer moving toward left Center will make the catch Rooker is out number one JJ Blan hits it sharply on two hops to First Dominic Smith with the chest High hop that handcuffed him a little bit races to the bag to make the play three unassisted for the second Out Shay trying to snap an 0 for 14 cuts it Loose strike three called fast ball at 96 right down the heart of the plate it locks up Shay langers so Cruz gives up a leadoff home run but that's it and it's going to be the eighth start of the season for right-hander Oswaldo BAU we just started to have the conversation about what JT Yin has done for himself out of the bullpen we know how asalo BAU got here and I think that's in the rearview mirror at this point with the month of August having gone the way it has for the big right-hander this is a man who is here to stay in this rotation now the bottom of the first and Jonathan India will lead it off for the Cincinnati Reds able to get India to pop up here on the 3-1 pitch and JJ blade will travel in from center field to make the catch one gone Ellie T La Cruz base hit run scored in a strike out yesterday payoff pitch and a swing and a miss change up gets De La Cruz and two outs with the first strike out here's Tyler Stevenson right it on the left side picked up by the third baseman Shuman across the diamond in time and a solid one two3 shutdown frame for Osvaldo BAU for Fernando crw this is his longest outing in the big leagues he's G as long as two innings never before as a
