Reds Destroy Their Own Fences, Force Fowler To Fly Out

Fowler went 0 for 4, flying out three times. Currently, his Player Rating ranks him as an All-Star participant.

SPIN:

After Sunday's S.W.A.T. team display in which Fowler swatted two homers like they were laser bullets off this bat, the Cincinnati Reds promptly contacted their local construction unions to have their ballpark's generous fences immediately blown up. However, the local construction unions emphatically refused the job because, if you remember, Fowler himself became a local union leader earlier this spring. This forced the Reds to stalk the dark Cincy streets at night in search of a hoodlum willing and able to take on the task. And who did they find huddled by a burn barrel down along the Ohio River? Chad Johnson. A man who now not simply will but has to do anything he can to still be a part of pro sports. And on late Sunday night/early Monday morning, Chad Johnson became a part of pro sports once again by taking a sledgehammer to the Great American Ball Park fences, demolishing them to prevent Dexter Fowler from hitting what would've been three home runs. In reaction to Johnson's actions, Fowler walked directly to the courthouse and officially changed his name to Dexter Veinticuatro.
