The 310 Fighter Unit from Luke Airforce Unit flew over Goodyear Ballpark that is so new it still has the price tag on it.
The jets barely escaped the blast by Asdrubial Cabrera, the Cleveland Indians lead off hitter.
Mike Lincoln felt good on the mound after he was shut down last June with a bulging disc in his neck but had trouble putting the ball where he wanted.
Lincoln fell behind 3-0 to Cabrera and had to put the ball down the middle. Unfortunately, that pitch was down the middle and Cabrera drilled it.
"It felt good to pitch. My arm feels good. My body feels good but I kept missing," Lincoln said.
Grady Sizemore, the Indians All-Star centerfielder, hit a bases-loaded ground rule double off Lincoln to finish Lincoln's day.
"It didn't go like I pictured it last night," Lincold said. "I know I can pitch. If I continue to get my work in, I will be ok."
Matt Maloney, who is competing with Lincoln for the fifth starting slot in the Reds rotation, was much better. He struck out two, in 1 2/3 innings.
Former Reds number one pick, Austin Kearns, started for Cleveland.
