Top 8 - Reds at Pirates

The Pirates take the field in the eight. I'm surprised to the see the Wilson and Wilson still manning the middle infield spots. Near as I can tell, everybody else is out of there. T.J. Beam gives up a pair of hits to some high-numbers guys, and the game has slowed significantly. That's three hits and we once again have ourselves a bases-loaded, no outs situation. The Reds scored two the last time they did this, and everybody remembers Bayshore High doing it on Wednesday when the scored four seventh-inning runs to overtake Manatee for a 6-5 win.
Beam finally retires someone on a pop up to first base, actually right the Pirates dugout. Then Alvin Colina follows up with a little duck-snort to right field, scoring two Reds. Cincy adds another on a sac fly by Andy Phillips.
The Reds finally end their rally, but they added three runs to their lead.

Reds 5, Pirates 0
