There’s a pretty tried and trusted method behind picking the JNMHSotG that says this - if they sock a 3-run dinger, they’re gonna win it. Fortunately for the Cincinnati Reds on Sunday, that meant there were two players worthy of such dap.
First came Nick Castellanos, whose tater continued his torrid start to his second season in Cincinnati. He added a triple to that tally, too, because he’s going to put up 100 extra-base hits this year, folks.
Backing Castellanos was Tyler Naquin, who similarly poked a 3-run homer, giving him 5 total ribbies in this season-opening series.
