Extra! Extra! Reds win on Ludwick Homer

Ryan Ludwick hits a walk off against former team!

The Cincinnati Reds have remained undefeated since the All-Star break with a 3-2 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals. While it has only been 2 games it looks promising for the Redlegs. They have regained first place in the division while also beating a key and heated rival in  St. Louis. The anticipation was strong heading into series based on years past brought back to recent memory by former manager LaRussa snubbing some Reds from potential All-Star appearances and both games have lived up to the hype especially if you are a Reds fan.

Here is a look at the Good, Bad, and Notables from this evenings game.
