Dylan Carlson

Carlson continued to impress with his defense in centerfield and made some key hits in the series. Carlson just keeps proving his worth to the club and it’s great to see.

In the second inning Friday, Carlson knocked a double to left field, scoring Tommy Edman.

In the third inning of Saturday’s game, Carlson hit a triple to right field, scoring  Edman. The two were amazing as they sped around the base path. The triple was Carlson’s third of the season.

In the seventh inning, Carlson reached base on a fielder’s choice to shortstop. Lars Nootbaar scored on the effort and throwing error by Reds shortstop Matt Reynolds.
