  • Launches grand slam
    India went 1-for-3 with a grand slam, a walk and five total RBI in a 12-7 win over the Rockies.

    Advice: India cut the Reds' deficit to 7-6 with a sacrifice fly in the eighth inning before breaking the game open with a grand slam off Angel Chivilli in the ninth, extending the lead to 12-7. After a slow start, India's started to turn things around at the plate -- he has at least one hit in nine of his last 12 games, going 14-for-36 (.389) with 13 RBI in that span. Overall, the 27-year-old second baseman is slashing .242/.358/.347 with four homers, 24 RBI, 24 runs scored and five stolen bases through 55 games this season. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 8:22 pm

  • Jonathan India hits grand slam, Reds sweep Rox
    Jonathan India slugged a three-run homer and tallied five RBI on Wednesday, leading the Reds to a 12-7 comeback victory over the Rockies.

    Advice: India followed teammate Spencer Steer’s go-ahead two-run homer off Rockies stopper Jalen Beeks in the ninth inning with a grand slam to left field against rookie Angel Chivilli later in the frame to put the cherry on top of Cincinnati’s six-run explosion. He also added a sacrifice fly earlier in the contest to match a career-high with five RBI in the comeback win, which gave the Reds a much-needed sweep of a three-game series at Coors Field.

  • Rejoining lineup Tuesday
    Arraez (shoulder/neck) is batting leadoff as the designated hitter Tuesday against the Angels.
