In the top of the second inning of Tuesday night’s Reds-Nationals game, Reds rookie sensation Aristides Aquino took a mighty cut at a high Joe Ross fastball and scalded it straight back into the backstop net. The net caught the ball, of course, which was good news for a Nationals fan seated in the third row behind the plate, who otherwise would’ve taken Aquino’s foul shot to the stomach. The news was less good for her beer and her t-shirt, both of which paid dearly for her jumpy reflexes.
