Aristides Aquino rewrites the record books again with another home run in Cincinnati Reds' win

A young fan asked Reds manager David Bell before Saturday’s game if he thought rookie sensation Aristides Aquino could continue to hit at his record home run pace.

Bell laughed and turned the question back to the fan, “What do you think?” The child said yes, and Bell agreed, “That’s what I think too.”

That was the correct answer. The magical start isn’t over yet.

Aquino crushed a three-run homer in the fifth inning to lead the Reds to a 6-1 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals at Great American Ball Park in front of 37,698 fans.
