And now, just like that today was the exact opposite. Down 5-3, two outs and nobody on in the bottom of the ninth against the Nationals closer, Jonathan India down to his last strike, he comes through with a double to keep the game alive. Then Will Benson (another young Red I love) crushes a game-tying two run homer. Then Christian Encarnacion Strand, who was 0-for-12 to start the year, hits a laser out to left to improbably win the game. It’s gonna be a fun year.

Yep. None of that happens without India's AB.  What a plate appearance !!! Jonathan looks great so far!!!! So glad we held on to him.

Something's not right with Diaz. I'm afraid his arm is cooked. Hope not.  Right now, I'd much rather see Suter or Cruz closing out games. Suter is a solid pro and Cruz has one of the filthiest put away pitches in baseball.
