well the starting pitcher for
the cubs, Javier assad, it's a
five pitch mix most of the top
two fastball, it's a sinker and
cutter Sprinkle in the offspeed
pitch as well.
One man out and now Jonathan
India will stand in, bounces
that one of the third morel
steady high tag that's one of
the things for Morel, that arm
action is really long and it can
get a little bit wild Kyle
farmer as he stands in ground
ball softly hit out to short
three ground ball outs.
The reds in order mike minor
gets the ball for the red legs
tonight and Cowboy Minor has a
chance to do some good things.
You can kind of like this match
up with him against these cups.
Suzuki batting one for three
last night had a homers drove in

PJ Higgins comes through and the
cubs have the early lead swing
and a miss as minor gets a
fastball by Christopher moral
pitch on, he goes to second one
around the first, got him double
play.
That is miraculous look what I
found ground ball back to minor
and it was a literal look what I
found.
He looked into his glove as
stunned as anybody that he had
it as he faces.
Aquino does Javier assad, he's
done that a lot lifetime.
He launches again against the
cubs.
A mammoth shot to left field and
the punisher ties the game at
one.
I think I saw the ball come off
the bat.
I'm not sure if I ever saw him
down.

time he lines one into left
center, there's a base hit his

Higgins a chance to bat and boy
that double play looks big now
centerfield runners at 1st and
2nd.
Never start a story with two
outs.
Now the cubs have two on with
two down and a big spot for
chris morel minor home of the 22
pitch.
And there's a ground ball.
Barreiro has, it flips it to
Farmer close at second base but
they get the out cubs Don't

Jose.
Barreiro.

Kyle Farmer Farmer over to the
pitch.
Farmer rips it into left field
that's down for a base hit.
India to second base.
Held their David ross is out,
will take the baseball from
Javier assad did a nice job here
tonight way inside it almost hit
him.
That's all the way to the
backstop on ball four and the
reds have loaded the bases with
one out and spencer steer coming
to the plate, broken bat roller
by the mound.
It's going to be a tough play
third baseman.
Has it spin throw into the reds
dugout, two runs will score, it
will go as a base hit a broken
bat single at that for spencer
steer really want to go for it
and try to make a play for your
team.
And then there are times to just
hold onto the baseball 2nd and
3rd.
Donovan Solano is at the plate
opposite way base hit.
Brooks Raley breaks.
He scores stop sign at third for
steer base hit and ribhi for
Donovan Solano of 51 RcD
zucchino standing in the pitch,
he breaks his bat as he loops
one into short right center
field and that's down for a hit
here comes spencer steer home to
score and it's an R.B.I. Single
for our STD's Aquino, it's his
second hit tonight and his
second R.B.I. And it's 6 to 1.
Reds.
Velasquez gets a two out walk
now the batter's Yandy Diaz and
the pitch on the way line in the
left field and is three for
three, stopping at second is
velasquez.
And that now will be it for mike
minor.
But in the end it's on to the
bullpen.
We'll deal with P.J. Higgins
runners at 1st and 2nd base and
two out 11 pitch on the ground
to the right side handled by the
second baseman.

play on the flat out and he
steals ahead from T.J.P.J. Way
to go.
That was spectacular.
Aquino to lead off the 9th
inning.
First pitch on the track and
left half looks up and Bush home
run.
The punisher tyranny of the cubs
continues his second homer of
the night.
Aristide's Aquino stretches the
lead, it's now 721 TJ Friedel's
up bases empty with two outs
Friedel rips.
This time it's by Higgins and
down the right field line and by
the right fielder.
Suzuki, it goes the wall,
Friedel's thinking three.
Here comes the relay throw to
third, not in time, it's a
triple for T.J. Ground ball
weakly hit to Barreiro at short
gloves and throws in time.
And that's it.
Reds win it 7 to 1 over the cubs
at Wrigley Field tonight, as the
Reds take the middle game of
this three game series and even
this series at a game apiece.
