Latos strikes out to start the 5th.
Then again...EVERYONE is a better hitter hitting in front of Votto. It's a matter of how much better. :O)
And you have the slices and scoops promo as well. If the Reds pitchers record 11 strikes with that game ticket you will receive a small LaRosa's pizza and a voucher for a scoop of UDF ice cream.

My brother took half his kid's team to the game tonight. I assumed it was something to do with the Kid Glove deal. I mean, it's not like he was going to pay regular price for them.
Phillies up 7-2 on the Pirates. (5th)
Cards down 2-0 to the Fish. (5th)
Cubs & Mets, no score.
Astros 2, Padres 4 in the 2nd
Cozart works the free pass.
Drew K's on 3 pitches.
Votto with a rocket, but Weeks nabs it. 2-0 reds after 5 full.
After five innings, Reds 2, Brewers 0.
Latos at 53 pitches, 44 strikes.
Gallardo at 87 pitches, 47 strikes.
How we looking?

All of a sudden, Latos has lost his release point. Nearly airmails one, then bounces one in front of the dish, then airmails another. Then grooved. Dinger Aoki. 2-1 Reds.

damnit
“I don’t care,” Votto said of passing his friend and former teammate. “He’s in the past. Bye-bye, Jay.”
Nice play by Cozart to get Morgan. 1 down.
Latos allows a lot of homers. That pitch was grooved.
Now Cozart makes a nice play to get Morgan.
