That's not true. He struck out Upton.

Reds may have their first 20 game winner in forever. Sign him long term immediately!

If you take away all of Chapman's strikeouts, he's only gotten outs by groundball and flyball. Odd.

Re: 8/28/2012 Reds at D'Backs

To me, this was a very important stretch. Four games in Philly, three at home against St. Louis, and then three at Arizona. A weird stretch, but we're now 5-4, with a chance to finish 6-4 tomorrow. Me like very much!

The last time the Reds won a 1-0 game with a HR was 2004? Really?
