Top 4 - Reds at Pirates

Jay Bruce leads off the fourth with an infield hit, then shows more of his speed tool by stealing second base. He's trying to make up for his base-running gaffe earlier in the game. Paul Bako failed to advance Bruce by grounding to the left side of the infield.
Quietly Morris has allowed seven hits, and Nyjer Morgan just saved another by tracking down a shallow pop fly to CF. Morris gets through the fourth when Ryan Freel grounds out to Jack Wilson.
That might be it for Morris. Not sure how he'll feel about the start. He wasn't missing a lot of bats, but he threw strikes and one of the runs he allowed was unearned.
Reds 2, Pirates 0
