REDS 3 DODGERS 6 F...GREINKE gets his 8th "W" of the 2014 as Dodger Blue CF ETHIER provides most of the RUN Support..."A CUP of JOE in the SHOW Report" from Chavez Ravine talking DODGER BLUE!

The Cincinnati Red Legs have put themselves in a situation some teams in the NL West are use to seeing. That is seeing both Dodgers Star Pitchers Zack Greinke and Clayton Kershaw in consecutive days. Now with Dodgers Hyun-Jin Ryu throwing almost a "Perfect" last night the Red Legs didn't fare too well vs the "Greink-ster"!

The Dodger CF Andre Ethier started off the Dodgers scoring with a Solo Tater in the bottom half of the 2nd for a Dodgers 1-0 lead.  Then with the Ducks all over the pond in the bottom half of the 4th  Ethier again delivers with a Three-Run Triple as the "Boys in Blue" move to a commanding 4-0 lead. That's when Zack Greinke took over as the Dodgers #2 Man went 7 2/3 innings allowing a run-scoring single in the 5th and a Two-Run Bomb in the 8th to Red Legs Back Stop Devin Mesoraco as the Dodgers by then were up 6-3. Greinke was pulled as Set-Up Man J.P. Howell and Dodgers Captain Save-A-Game Kenley Jansen (16th saves) closed the door on the Red Legs.

Red Legs Starter Alfredo Simon went just 3 2/3 innings allowing five runs on five hits walking four and striking out two. Red Legs First Baseman David Lutz had two hits while Ethier went 2 for 4 with two runs scored, a Three-Bagger, and a Solo HR for Dodger Blue.

Dodgers move to 29-24 2nd in the NL West  while the Red Legs fall to 22-28 and 4th in the NL Central.
