Cincinnati Reds Can’t Complete Sweep of Cardinals

W: Michael Wacha (16-5)

L: Sam LeCure (0-1)

Three out of four ain’t bad, right? The Cincinnati Reds were unable to complete a four-game sweep of the St. Louis Cardinals, dropping the series finale on Sunday, 4-2.

The Reds got on the board early against Cardinals starter Michael Wacha, who has dominated them (and pretty much everyone else) since coming to the major leagues. Todd Frazier started the scoring in the second with a solo home run, his 33rd of the season. Wacha gave up another in the fourth, loading the bases on two walks and a hit batter before giving up a sacrifice fly to Tucker Barnhart.
