After Cincinnati Reds left fielder Jesse Winker hit his third line drive that cleared the center field fence on Friday night, Great American Ball Park wanted more.
Fans chanted “MVP” for the National League leader in batting average, who sprinted back up to the top of the dugout steps for a curtain call. As Winker pointed to the crowd after his third homer on Friday night against the Milwaukee Brewers, the ballpark grew louder than it had been all season.
Winker has been the Reds best hitter this season, and he led them out of a four-game losing streak with three home runs as the Reds beat the Milwaukee Brewers, 9-4.
