Jonathan India ($4,500; 35 FPTS) had been in quite the funk, going hitless in his last five games. On Wednesday, he got off the schneid in glorious fashion, launching two pitches into the bleachers. India got the festivities started with a three-run blast in the third inning. He then hit a solo shot in the fifth inning. India finished with three hits and four RBI.
India wasn’t the only Reds player to send two into the seats. TJ Friedl ($4,400; 28 FPTS) hit a solo home run in the fifth inning then hit another in the seventh inning.
Tyler Stephenson ($4,100; 14 FPTS) hit a solo homer in the third inning to make it five on the night.
The Reds finished with nine runs on 13 hits. The Cardinals racked up 10 hits but were only able to plate two.
Kyle Gibson ($7,900; 5.1 FPTS) served up four of the home runs and finished the night with six strikeouts, two walks and six earned runs on seven hits in 4.2 innings.
