With players on both the Cincinnati Reds and Philadelphia Phillies wearing #42 on Jackie Robinson Day, the Reds put together their most complete performance of the young season.
It was easy for Graham Ashcraft, who got the start and fired 6.0 IP of scoreless ball. He worked his 100 mph heater around the zone expertly with a mix of his cutter and slider, scattering 4 hits and 4 walks against 4 K in a easy-peasy 89 pitch performance. And before the Reds played add-on against non-pitcher Josh Harrison in the Bottom of the 8th, Wil Myers socked a pair of homers and drove in 5 to put this game effectively on-ice long before the final out was recorded.
