Hot hitting Jay Bruce was scratched from the Reds lineup an hour before the first pitch and replaced by Jonny Gomes.
Bruce was in the original lineup in his customary rightfield position batting fifth. Gomes will play leftfield with Chris Heisey moving to rightfield batting sixth.
Bruce was the hero last night for Cincinnati. He is hitting .533 with five home runs and eight RBI in his last four games.
No reason has yet been given for the lineup change.
