    Nick Lodolo throws an absolute GEM in Cincinnati Reds’ win over San Diego Padres 5-2 | 4/29/24

    Benji - Men's Personal Carespot_img

    The Cincinnati Reds have not fared well in San Diego in the David Bell era, but they’ve also not had Nick Lodolo when out there, and this time…they did. Not to mention, they got an early spark from Elly de La Cruz that also helped.

    Nick Lodolo has a career day in San Diego

    I want to use career day relatively light here when it comes to Nick Lodolo, because this is the stuff I expect out of him, and so should you, but he was THAT much better tonight. He threw so well, he was only 1 more strikeout away from his career high of 12. Darn!

    On 4/29/24 Nick Lodolo made his Petco Park debut, on the 2nd pitch of the game Jurickson Profar took him right-center for a leadoff bomb that ultimately tied the game at 1. After that, Nick Lodolo walked two straight batters in the bottom of the 2nd inning, Xander Bogaerts and Ha-Seong Kim – the waters were a little rough, and then…the Dolonator came out. He retired every single batter he faced on the night since allowing only one hit.

    ALMOST a career night…

    Usually when you strikeout 11 batters and only allow one hit, it’s…probably a career night. Nope, not for Nick Lodolo. His career high in strikeouts is 12. So sad, too bad, right? Well, here’s another nugget for you: Nick Lodolo career high in swing and misses is 22. He met that mark again on Monday night in San Diego with 22 swings and misses on the night as well. I’m still trying to sit here and digest what I just watched into the late night. I mean…holy shit. That’s our balding ACE. Nick struckout EVERY San Diego Padres starter at least once tonight.

    That’s a lot of swing and miss for K’s.

    The Bats are warming up…

    The Cincinnati Reds bats are starting to warm up. Elly de La Cruz led off the scoring with a MAMMOTH shot to centerfield in the top of the 1st. The ball whistled off his bat at 113.4 MPH and traveled 443 feet. You guessed it, a homer in 30/30 ballparks according to Statcast. Who’d of thunk it…

    More bats coming alive…

    • Spencer Steer RBI Double
    • Will Benson 2 doubles
    • Jeimer Candelario with 2 hits!!!
    • Santiago Espinal with an RBI late and much better ABs

    The Redlegs are getting hot again!
