40. :clap::clap::clap:
Rockies 2nd:
Alex White doubles over Bruces head.
Fowler HRs, Arroyo ties Milton for the Reds team record.
Arroyo done. Ouch.
#40 to a guy who now has 15 career homers.
I've been a big Arroyo supporter and still think he can bounce back in 2012 with Mono behind him and a relatively light workload in 2011. An off-season rest is very needed.
It was a really bad idea to extend him though.
Please let this be the last start for Arroyo. Tell him to get better and figure out another way to fool these hitters for next year.
Rockies 2nd, part 2:
Travis Wood on to pitch.
Ellis pops out to Phillips.
CarGo Ks looking.
Tulowitski Ks looking.
After 2 innings, Rockies 6, Reds 1.
