Noah Sundergaard has really been struggling this year for the Dodgers No more in the better indicator than the six point five four ERA and he cracks a bat for the First out of the game is Max Muncy makes the grab.

Nobody out Now Will Smith drives the ball the other way Benson's going back on this to the track to the wall Will Smith an opposite field home run. He's seen two pitches He's doubled off for the wall and he's homered the other way the way this ball carries here, especially to right field Just barely enough. Oh Right off the tip of the leather and he's looked just fine This ball's rifled down the line by J.D. Martinez who picks up another extra base hit. It's a ringy double single homer double to open this third And that'll bring Miguel Vargas to the plate who homered out of left center field in his first event On a 1-2 pitch Vargas cracks one in the air towards the left field corner. That's hooking off the wall and a fair ball Martinez into score Muncie stops at third. It's a double for Vargas and it's 6-2 Just enough swing left on this one Over the 379 mark in his first at-bat just under the 328 mark down the left field line on this one Matt McLean the designated hitter one for one with a run scored Takes the breaking ball to left center and that's down all the way to the wall McLean shoots up to second. Could he be thinking three? Yes, he turns a triple from the first pitch Betts shaping up makes the catch tag at third sac fly RBI And the Reds back within three Well, the legend is going Dele De La Cruz De La Cruz bashes to right center. Is he for real? He's gonna go three Easily has a triple folks. You better come down to the ballpark You better come down here Cincinnati and watch this young man play your friend made his own character in the video game And he gave him all 99 attributes Spencer Steer hit by pitches first time to center Six to four as the Reds continue to fight back one out two runs in three hits in the inning two strikes to Tyler Stevenson And Tyler Stevenson might be back Well, we saw a little piece and bits and pieces coming together for Tyler Stevenson Really starting to drive the ball to the right side of the infield and when that happens the big fella allows that ball to travel Dodgers rookie Nick Robertson. This is his major league debut. Sounds like he's got some people in town here Nick Robertson three pitch pitcher Three pitches in the big leagues to a big leaguer already and on your first batter in the major leagues Nick Robertson You've got a K and on first two outs and now one of the great power against power matchups Brewster greater off against Ellie de la Cruz And a wrinkle in there for strike one Look out had run into scoring position as this one gets by Smith Bouncing ball foul They like Cruz stays a lot and a 1-2 from Brewster gratter all de la Cruz fouls it off 100 strength against strength Tries it again and gets him this time Gratter all strikes out de la Cruz just ran the go-ahead run in scoring position winning run of board. Nobody out in the night Benson has obvious power something he showed in spring training There is some specialness happening here with this ballclub and everyone is partaking in the party and Benson was some kind of Jack he spiked the bat at home plate and he is gonna get some kind of celebration when he hits home plate
