TJ Friedl went 3-for-3 with a three-run homer on Tuesday to lift the Reds to an 8-1 blowout win over the Rockies in Cactus League action.

Friedl took Colorado reliever Jimmy Herget deep with two outs in the fourth inning for his first big fly of the spring. The 30-year-old centerfielder remains Cincinnati’s primary leadoff option ahead of middle-of-the-order forces Elly De La Cruz and Eugenio Suárez heading into the regular season, which makes him a decent OF5 option in shallow mixed leagues.
