Don’t bring me down, Bruce: Phillies 4, Reds 2

Remember last year when the Phillies traded for Asdrubal Cabrera and he wasn’t very good, and the team cratered after he came aboard? It’s still early, but I think it’s fair to say that the trade for Jay Bruce is working out a little better. On Friday night, he made a little bit of history.

According to @EliasSports, Jay Bruce is the first #Phillies player who debuted with the team in the modern era to hit four home runs in his first four games with the team.
