(My Sportsbook) - Jose Guillen ended 3-for-5 with a two-run homer and four runs batted in, as the Cincinnati Reds outslugged the Colorado Rockies, 13-11, in the middle contest of the three-game set at Coors Field on Wednesday. Jason LaRue and Adam Dunn each added a solo homer for the Reds, who have won three of their last four and evened the series at one game apiece. Scott Sullivan (2-0) pitched two scoreless innings of relief for the win. Scott Williamson picked up his sixth save. Reds starter Ryan Dempster lasted just 1 1/3 innings and yielded seven runs on just one hit and six walks. Taking the mound for the Reds today will be Jeff Austin, who is 0-1 with a 6.00 ERA this season. In his last outing, Austin allowed four runs on just three hits over six innings of a 7-3 loss to the San Diego Padres on Friday. He struck out six and walked four. Austin has never faced the Rockies in his brief career. |
