Chapman Two Scoreless Innings

Aroldis Chapman pitched two scoreless innings, striking out Matt Kemp and Casey Blake with change ups. They were his last two hitters faced.

"I was not finishing my slider," Chapman said. "I have a little cold. I was not as sharp as the last time. I put a couple pitches out of the strike zone."

Chris Heisey hit a home run off George Sherril. The Reds held on for a 3-2 win.

"Chapman's fastball was sailing out of the zone," Dusty Baker said. "He had a real good change up and got some good hitters out."

Chapman struck out Matt Kemp and Casey Blake with change ups to finish his outing strong. They were the last two hitters he faced.

Until the Dodgers scored two in the ninth inning off Fisher, the Reds pitchers allowed only one run over the last 27 innings.
