Robert Stephenson shines as Reds top Rockies, 4-3
A solid start for the talented Reds rookie.The Joe Nuxhall Memorial Honorary Star of the Game
Robert Stephenson was a late addition to the Cincinnati Reds lineup on Tuesday, called up early in the afternoon to take the place of Alfredo Simon and his injured biceps.
