Bronson Arroyo

Now I understand why the Reds were willing to give up Wily Mo:

CHICAGO (AP) -- Bronson Arroyo had no homers in his first six major league seasons. Now the long-legged Cincinnati pitcher has two in one week.

On a windy day at Wrigley Field, Arroyo and his Reds teammates used a bevy of long balls to beat the Chicago Cubs.

Arroyo pitched seven shutout innings and hit one of Cincinnati's six homers, Edwin Encarnacion connected for a grand slam and the Reds routed the Cubs 9-2.
