Go-Go Gomes: Jonny Hits Walkoff Home Run To Lift Reds Over Cardinals

“I can’t ask for anything better than that, especially getting hit early on in the game,” Arroyo said about his outing. “I didn’t want them getting after my fastball a whole lot so I wanted to throw in a ton of changeups and luckily it was good and kept the hitters off balance.”

Both pitchers worked out of some first inning trouble, and neither team was able push across a run until the Reds finally broke through in the fifth.
