Pops homer in win

Romo went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a second RBI in Wednesday's 5-0 win over the Reds.

Analysis

Romo hit a solo shot in the third inning and an RBI single in the eighth. Prior to the two-RBI effort, Romo had gone 0-for-13 with five strikeouts over his first four games in August. Since Joey Bart joined Kyle Teel (ankle) on the injured list Friday after fracturing his right hand, Romo has made two starts to Edgar Quero's three, though all of Quero's have come against left-handed pitching. The two backstops will likely continue to split time fairly equitably, though Wednesday's performance could boost Romo's chances of emerging as the preferred option against right-handed pitching. For the season, Romo is batting just .136 with a .508 OPS, six home runs, 13 RBI, 13 runs scored and one stolen base over 48 contests.
