Insurance run is 90 feet away with 1 out and Iglesias at the plate. Let’s go Reds! Rizzo and Cubs catcher let a ball fall between them in foul territory that should have been out #3. Farmer then doubles down the line to score Ervin. 5-3 Reds.

July 16, 20197 yr Author Lorenzen gets into some trouble with 1 out, but Iglesias comes in and gets a line out to Suarez that allowed him to double the man off second. That ball was smashed. Sometimes it’s better to be lucky than good.
