CINCINNATI -- Center fielder Billy Hamilton's six plate appearances during the Reds' 13-3 rout of San Francisco on Friday produced four runs, two walks, two singles, a triple, two RBIs and two stolen bases -- pretty much everything but the kitchen sink.
Or an inside-the-park home run.
Hamilton's sixth-inning hit rolled through the gap and to the left-center-field wall. Giants left fielder Brandon Belt retrieved the ball and made a strong throw, but Hamilton said only a moment of indecision on his part kept him from his first inside-the-park homer in the big leagues.
