Cubs outfielder Cody Bellinger warmed up his bat against the Cincinnati Reds at Great American Ball Park this week in Cincinnati, Ohio.

CINCINNATI – Cody Bellinger has gone on 0-for-9 or 0-for-11 hitless streaks before.

“All the time,” he said after the Cubs’ 12-5 win against the Reds on Tuesday.

There’s just something about starting the season, even if it’s just for a few games, on a hitless streak.

The Cubs got their whole lineup rolling in Cincinnati this week, scoring a season-high six runs on Monday and then doubling that mark Tuesday.
