Mon Jul 3 201702:36RHP Jake Arrieta downright dominant at times
RHP Jake Arrieta was downright dominant at times. Joe Maddon's litmus test to evaluate Arrieta's stuff on Sunday was how he fared against Reds first baseman Joey Votto, arguably one of the best hitters in all of baseball. Votto went 1-for-3 against Arrieta with a strikeout but managed to do something against him no other Reds batter could -- get a hit. Arrieta allowed only a single by Votto through seven innings in a 6-2 victory. Arrieta, pitching in Great American Ball Park where he hurled a no-hitter on April 21, 2016, retired 10 straight in one stretch and 19 of the final 20 batters he faced. "Votto did not have good at-bats against him, that tells me his stuff was very good," said Maddon. "That was as good as we've seen Jake in a bit. If he keeps pitching with that command, the confidence is going to come up. I was just watching their hitters react."
