Bruce scores fan new truck with home run

Published Sep. 25, 2015 10:57 a.m. ET

While the Reds didn't get the victory Thursday night, one lucky fan had himself a memorable night.

Thanks to Jay Bruce's 26th home run of the season in the eighth inning, Rafael Gonzalez, whose name was drawn before the game, earned a new Toyota Tundra truck.

For someone to win the grand prize, a player on the Reds had to hit a home run into the designated Target Area located in the Sun Deck/Moon Deck seats or visitors bullpen in right field. The promotion began Thursday and would have run through next Wednesday had a Reds player not jacked one to the specific location.

When asked about the truck winner after the game, Bruce said: "That's pretty cool. Hopefully, he can use it."
