He walked two and gave up a two-run double to Luis Garcia Jr, who scored on a throwing error by Coby Mayo. He walked James Wood to start the fifth. Garcia Jr. followed with a home run off Tyler Wells.
He made one start against the Reds in his career.
On July 29 in his rookie season he started against the Reds in a 6-2 win over Cincinnati. He pitched five innings and allowed two runs on five hits with no walks and seven strikeouts. He allowed a two run home run to Joey Votto in the first inning.
