Cincinnati 10, Pittsburgh 4

BRADENTON, Fla. (AP) -- NL Rookie of the Year Jason Bay will miss

at least a week after he jammed his left wrist diving for a flyball

in the fifth inning of the Pittsburgh Pirates' 10-4 loss to the

Cincinnati Reds on Tuesday.

Bay was injured when he attempted to make a diving catch on Adam

Dunn's drive near the left-field line. He immediately clutched his

wrist and was removed after manager Lloyd McClendon conferred with

trainer Brad Henderson.

He was taken to Manatee Memorial Hospital, where X-rays and an

MRI showed Bay had bone bruise in his left wrist. He is week to

week but should be ready for opening day, team spokesman Jim

Trdinich said.

"I think Jason was scared more than anything," McClendon said.

"When we were coming in, he didn't say anything bad at all. He

wanted to stay in the game, but at this point you want to make sure

everything is OK."

Bay has gotten off to a slow start since becoming the first

Pirates player to be selected the NL's top rookie. He went 0-for-2

Tuesday and has one hit in 15 at-bats this spring.

Jacob Cruz helped the Reds build a 6-1 lead with a three-run

homer off Mark Redman in the third inning. Robert Stratton added a

solo shot, his third homer against the Pirates in two days.

Brandon Claussen and Aaron Harang, two of the five Reds pitchers

competing for the final two spots in the rotation, each worked

three innings. Claussen pitched three-hit ball, striking out two

and walking none.

"Things are going well. I can't complain," Claussen said. "I

used all of my pitches and I'm very pleased with the results."

Harang allowed five hits and one run. He struck out three and

walked one.

Claussen and Harang are competing with Josh Hancock, Jeriome

Robertson and Luke Hudson.

"I try not to think about it too much," Harang said. "I root

for my teammates, try to do the best I can and let the coaches make

the decisions."

Redman gave up six hits and six runs -- three earned -- in three

innings. The Reds also scored two runs off Jose Mesa and Matt

Peterson.

Jason LaRue went 2-for-4 with three RBI for the Reds. Dunn went

2-for-3 with two doubles and an RBI, and Joe Randa went 2-for-3 and

scored two runs.

Ryan Doumit hit a three-run homer for the Pirates and Craig

Wilson homered for the second consecutive day.

Freddy Sanchez and Jose Castillo each went 2-for-3.
