Cincinnati Reds thrash the Texas Rangers by 6-2
Mat Latos went aggressively on Friday, March 23, and pitched five strong innings to help the Cincinnati Reds beat the Texas Rangers by 6-2. Mat Latos was acquired from the San Diego Padres after the Reds gave up three players.
"Everybody looked good," said Reds manager Dusty Baker. "Latos just hung that one curveball to Borbon. Other than that, he looked outstanding."
Mat Latos had five innings to pitch whereby he gave up only a run, allowing 4 hits followed by Nick Masset who gave up no hit or run in his one inning spell. Logan Ondrusek gave up 2 hits in his one inning, while Ron Mahay, coming as a closer gave up a run
and a hit.
It was Scott Feldman – the starting pitcher of the Texas Rangers, who gave up 8 hits in his 4.1 innings, allowing 2 runs.
"Nobody has told me what role I have," said Feldman, who pitched in relief last season while recovering from knee surgery. "I can't control my role, I'm just trying to make a good impression on these guys. I want to start, but all I can do is keep a good
attitude. All I know is, I have peace of mind I can get guys out on a consistent basis."
Tanner Scheppers, on the other hand, gave up 5 hits and proved expensive enough to give up 3 runs his 1.2 innings while Joe Beimel gave up a run and hit in his one inning.
Dennis Phipps of the Reds had a run to his credit with a hit, Zack Cozart scored a run in his 2 hits While Jay Bruce also scored a run coupled with one run each from Devin Mesoraco, Dioner Navarro, and Chris Valaika.
From the Texas Rangers, Julio Borbon  and Joey Butler scored a run each for the Rangers to score the total of 2 runs.
The Reds will have a lot of confidence gain from the performance that they exhibited here. As the Spring Training draws to end, the Reds seem all braced to face any and every team with ever more confidence.
