Bizarre play help Reds rout Tribe

CLEVELAND -- Cincinnati Reds manager Bryan Price had never seen anything like it. Neither had anyone else.

"That's one of the strangest things I've ever seen," Price said. "I'm sure that's going to go down as one of those plays we see between innings for years to come."

Aided by a bizarre play in which Cleveland runner David Murphy was fooled by a second ball on the field and tagged out, Cincinnati defeated the Indians 9-2 on Tuesday night.

Johnny Cueto's fourth complete game of the season was overshadowed in the seventh inning, when the Indians had a rally squelched after an errant warm-up pitch from Cincinnati's bullpen came on the field and resulted in Murphy being caught off third base.
