The postponement of Saturday’s game between the Cincinnati Reds and Pittsburgh Pirates set up several new storylines. The obvious one, of course, is that they’ll play a Sunday doubleheader to wrap the series, with Brandon Williamson on the bump for Cincinnati in the first one at 1:35 PM ET.
The subplot, though, is that Saturday saw both the Milwaukee Brewers and Chicago Cubs take home victories of their own, officially pushing the Reds down into 3rd place in a division in which a) the Pirates always exist and b) the St. Louis Cardinals embarked on a sell-off at the trade deadline.
