Fiery Arizona Heat Unleashes Shocking Collapse of White Sox’s Brightest Prospects and Opening Day Stars
Cincinnati had rallied for a 7-5 lead by the fifth, and two innings later a two-run single from Everson Pereira (who’d already clocked a two-run homer earlier in the game) knotted the game back up, 7-7.
The score remained the same until the bottom of the ninth, when Cincy turned a single, walk and HBP into a two-out, bases-loaded situation for reliever Frankeli Arias. Arias battled with P.J. Higgins to a full count, and the deciding pitch was going to end the game, swing or no:
Yes, it appears that Higgins could have taken a sayonara base on balls, but instead he swung at a juicy fastball at his eyes and drove it out to right for an oppo slam. Case closed, Reds win, 11-7.
