Week 8: Tuesday Roundup

Tyler Chatwood walks — his specialty — to the dugout after getting pulled in the 3rd inning.
The "Hoosiers" star has walked 40 batters in 45.2 innings. Yes, really. 
STUDS: Scooter Gennett (FF) hit a grand slam, had an RBI double and tacked on a sacrifice fly. He now has more 6-RBI games for the Reds (2) than Joey Votto, Joe Morgan, Tony Perez or Pete Rose. Go figure. Sean Doolittle (BM) struck out the side in his inning of work and picked up the win. Nine points for beating the Padres? Seems excessive.

DUD: Tyler Chatwood (M) ruined what was supposed to be an exciting rematch of the 2016 World Series by walking a half-dozen guys. He allowed 4 runs and struck out 1 in a 2.2-inning loss.

RANDOMNESS: Since the NL was kind of a snoozer today, check out this BP homer by Shohei Ohtani (below) and enjoy Mark Gubicza's expert analysis.
