Takes a cutter above middle, 3-1 Cutter almost down the middle, fouled back, 3-2 FB inside middle, rifled into the corner in right for a 2 run double, and perfect, just perfect. Yanks still down 2, and because of Reds craptastic middle relief, 1 run in 5 innings becomes 3 runs in 5 innings, after 5 outstanding inning. Yanks down 5-3 now.

Sinker inside, hit back to Martinez, Bird misreads it as getting by him, but he makes a nifty grab, and throws Rice out at 3rd, 1 down.

Grisham takes a cutter outside, 1-0 Swings over a cutter basically right down Broadway, 1-1 Takes a change low, near the inside corner, 2-1 Misses a cutter just outside middle, 2-2 You gotta be able to make contact with at least ONE of those two cutters, Trent. Geez! Takes his timeout Gets a change above middle, but is way early and under, pops it way back in the seats behind first. Well, at least he didn't miss that one clean. Bounced curve gets away from Stephenson far enough to let DJ get to 2nd with 1 out, wild pitch. Another cutter right down the middle, and he fouls it almost straight back.

Cutter down the middle, AGAIN, and he pulls this one hard and foul off 1st. Getting closer...

A cutter below the waist in the middle, hit hard but right on the ground to Steer, takes it to the bag, two down. DJ to 3rd.

Trevino... Curve in the zone inside middle, 0-1 FB runs well high, Trevino leans back, but not close to him, 1-1 Fb above the waist, inside corner, jams him, fly to medium right is handled by Benson, inning over.
Thank you for being lousy enough to allow the two inherited runners to score, Martinez, but not lousy enough to let the Yanks tie it or take the lead. Perfect. Just...perfect. Top 7, 5-3 Reds.
De La Cruz, Candelario and Steer for the Reds in the 7th.

Grisham got about 5 cookies in that AB. Yep, got closer with each swing. Maybe would've belted one on the 7th cookie.

Kahnle in for the 7th, as Boone chases the close deficit... De La Cruz... Takes a change below and inside middle, 0-1 Chases a FB at the very top of the zone, misses under, 0-1 Takes a change that bounces inner 3rd, 1-2 Tries to check on a low change, can't, home plate ump rings him up, K, 1 down.

Candelario... Takes a change just inside above the knees, 1-0 Swings over a change diving well low, inside middle, 1-1 Swings over a good 2 plane change, diving low and away, 1-2 Change moves outside but not down enough, winds up outside above the knees, lined off the end of the bat to right for a 1 out single.
