The Reds defeated the Giants on Tuesday in ten innings by the score of 9-8. Brandon Phillips had a big night for the Reds, going 3-for-5 with two RBI and two runs scored. Phillips raised his batting average to .293 for the season.
Fantasy Impact
Phillips has been hot in September, hitting .352 with two home runs and ten RBI. His batting average is 20 points higher than his career mark, but his on-base percentage and OPS are slightly down. Having said that, Phillips is hitting the ball well and is a good fantasy option at second base for the final few weeks of the season.
