Garza vs. Griffey; Garza wins

OK, we’re in the bottom of the fifth and Garza has run into some trouble. He hit Joey Votto with two outs to load the bases.

The crowd comes to life as Ken Griffey, Jr., comes to the plate.

Griffey is hitting .353 with a home run an 11 RBIs. He’s bounced out to short and was hit by a pitch during his first two trips to the plate.

Junior takes a might cut, but swings through a fastball.

Still, the crowd was impressed.

Griffey turns on one and pulls a line drive toward right, but Carlos Pena is there and snares it for the final out of the inning.

Garza escapes the bases loaded jam.

It’s still Rays 6, Reds 1.

I don’t remember if I mentioned it or not, but the Reds scored once in the fourth when Votto came home when Dunn bounced into a double play.

So, now you are up to date.
