Day Following 19-Inning marathon, Lee, Phillies have an excessive amount of for Reds 10-4
Cliff Lee drove in three runs and worked eight efficient innings, leading the Philadelphia Phillies to a 10-4 win over the Cincinnati Reds on Thursday afternoon.
Raul Ibanez hit a three-run homer for the Phillies, who took three of four from the Reds.
Both teams had been playing with small rest following Wednesday's 19-inning marathon ended at 1:19 a.m., after six hrs, 11 minutes and 600 total pitches.
Just about every Phillie had at the very least one particular hit on Thursday, such as Chase Utley, who is 2 for 14 considering that returning from the disabled list earlier this week.
The Phillies' offence gave Lee a 1-0 lead inside the 1st inning when Ryan Howard doubled in Michael Martinez with two outs.
Howard was intentionally walked in the fourth inning with two outs as well as a runner on second, but Ibanez hit an 0-2 pitch for a residence run. Ibanez is batting .361 (30 for 83) given that snapping an 0-for-35 skid.
The Reds cut it to 4-2 within the fourth on Paul Janish's two-run single that scored Miguel Cairo and Jay Bruce.
Bruce tied the game having a two-run homer to proper in the sixth inning. The shot was his National League-leading 14th with the season. Bruce has batted .486 with six homers and 14 RBIs throughout an eight-game hitting streak.
Reds starter Homer Bailey allowed 4 runs and 5 hits as well as a walk in 4 innings, and left the game with appropriate shoulder spasms suffered for the duration of a fourth-inning at-bat.
Lee (4-4) threw 114 pitches in eight innings. But his largest contributions came in the plate.
The Phillies loaded the bases with no outs in the sixth inning against Daryl Thompson (0-1), who had produced his big league debut an inning earlier.
Lee followed up a walk to catcher Dane Sardinha having a first-pitch double more than the head of centre-fielder Drew Stubbs. It bounced over the fence for a ground-rule double. An inning later, his single up the middle scored John Mayberry Jr.
Lee became the initial Phillies pitcher to drive in three runs seeing that Cory Lidle, on Sept. four, 2004, against the Mets.
Wilson Valdez, who became the very first player to start a game within the field and later earn the win as a pitcher due to the fact Babe Ruth on Oct. 1, 1921, received a standing ovation when he batted inside the second inning.
Right-hander Jose Contreras, activated from the 15-day disabled list ahead of the game, worked a scoreless ninth inning.
Notes: OF Shane Victorino (right hamstring) is scheduled to start a rehabilitation assignment on Saturday with Class A Lakewood. He can also be scheduled to play there Sunday. ... Reds utility player Miguel Cairo batted cleanup for the primary time this season. ... RHP David Herndon was optioned to triple-A Lehigh Valley to produce space for Contreras. The Reds placed Matt Maloney on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to Tuesday, having a strained left oblique muscle.
