Here are the Reds' top 10 HRs of the '10s

CINCINNATI -- A home run can change the outcome of a game in an instant, and some of those also become instant classics. The Reds have delivered big homers that remain memorable, especially at Great American Ball Park, where the ball flies frequently.

Here are 10 of the best Reds home runs of the last decade:

1) Bruce’s division-winning homer vs. the Astros
Sept. 28, 2010

It was a foregone conclusion at this point in 2010 that the Reds were going to win the National League Central division title, their first playoff berth in 15 years. But they made the postseason in the most thrilling of fashions when Jay Bruce hit the first pitch from Tim Byrdak to center field for a walk-off home run and a 3-2 victory over Houston.

2) Todd Frazier wins the Home Run Derby
July 13, 2015

The introduction of a timed format added energy and suspense to the 2015 Gillette Home Run Derby at GABP. But the hometown player made it unforgettable. Reds third baseman Todd Frazier slugged the epic winning long ball in the final round bonus time to defeat Joc Pederson of the Dodgers.

3) Scooter Gennett hits fourth homer of the night
June 6, 2017

A Cincinnati native who was a pre-Opening Day waiver claim, Scooter Gennett had yet to become the Reds’ everyday second baseman. But the job would soon be his when Gennett set a franchise-record with four home runs while going 5-for-5 with a team-record 10 RBIs during a 13-1 win over the Cardinals.

4) Votto’s walk-off grand slam
May 13, 2012

To cap a three-homer day in a 9-6 win over the Nationals, Joey Votto thrilled with a two-out grand slam in the bottom of the ninth. Votto became the first in the Major Leagues to have a walk-off slam as part of a three-homer game.

5) Lorenzen’s emotional homer
Aug. 19, 2016

Just back from bereavement leave after the death of his father, reliever Michael Lorenzen pitched 1 2/3 scoreless innings during a 9-2 win over Arizona. Tears began to flow, however, during the seventh inning when Lorenzen hit a three-run homer -- the first of his career. Each teammate in the dugout offered hugs and fans embraced him in their own way with a standing ovation that led to a curtain call. Watch here.

6) Hernandez walks it off on Opening Day
March 31, 2011

There were two outs in the bottom of the ninth inning when catcher Ramon Hernandez completed a stunning 7-6 comeback victory over the Brewers with a three-run, walk-off home run. On a very cold Opening Day afternoon, Hernandez connected with John Axford’s 0-1 pitch and raised both arms in the air when he saw the ball clear the right-field fence.

7) “The Punisher” hits three homers
Aug. 10, 2019

An unheralded rookie upon his Aug. 1 promotion, outfielder Aristides Aquino burst onto the scene with a dizzying -- and a record -- rate of home runs. In a 10-1 win over the Cubs at GABP, Aquino crushed three home runs in the first four innings, including three straight frames to tie a Major League record. He also equaled Rockies shortstop Trevor Story's feat with seven homers over his first 10 games. The right fielder became second the player in history with a three-homer performance in his first 10 big league games, joining Bobby Estalella of the Phillies in 1997.

8) Look, Ma, no hands!
May 27, 2012

It certainly wasn’t a pretty swing when Frazier reached for a slow pitch from Rockies veteran pitcher Jamie Moyer. He let go of his grip on the bat, but the contact was hard enough to clear the fence for a wacky home run.

9) Lorenzen delivers pinch-hit grand slam
June 30, 2018

Capping an eight-run rally in the bottom of the seventh inning in a 12-3 win over the Brewers, Lorenzen’s grand slam turned the game into a rout. He hit a 1-0 fastball up and in from Jacob Barnes and powered it into the left-field seats.

10) Suárez sets homer record for Venezuelans
Sept. 18, 2019

Eugenio Suárez hit a very special homer for himself and his home country during a 3-2 victory over the Cubs at Wrigley Field. His 48th home run of the season broke the single-season record by a Venezuelan-born player, which previously belonged to Andres Galarraga from 1996. After the game inside the visitors' clubhouse, an emotional Suárez and his teammates celebrated with champagne while singing the Venezuelan national anthem.
