Not a bad day for Frazier. Save a guy’s life in the afternoon and then goes 2-3 with an RBI double and an RBI triple in the Reds’ 8-1 victory over Pittsburgh.
While having dinner at a downtown Pittsburgh restaurant with teammate Ryan Ludwick, Frazier noticed a man was choking.
“I was talking to [Ludwick] and I see it out of the corner of my eye,” Frazier explained. “I said, ‘I think that dude is choking over there.’ … There were two women side by side trying to give him the Heimlich. [Ludwick] said to get over there because I was the closest one. So I went over there and was yelling at them to get out of the way. They did, and I gave two pumps and it came out.”
It’s just another memory in Frazier’s pretty buzz-worthy rookie season. He’s hitting .278 this year with 5 home runs and 13 RBI. The heroic efforts off the field come days after he hit a home run as the bat flew out of his hands.
Todd Frazier hits well with RISP because as was proven today, he doesn't allow choking. #ToddFrazierFacts
