The Cincinnati Reds haven’t won a thing since Phil Castellini opened his big Phil mouth and again showed the world his big Phil energy. They haven’t so much as led in that time, I don’t think, or at least not for more than a minute or five.
They certainly haven’t led against the Los Angeles Dodgers, who have made them look like their AA team for much of the series - albeit an AA team with an insanely talented righty from California mixed in. That was Hunter Greene last night, of course, but the Reds have another such righty from California in the deck for today in the form of Tyler Mahle, who’ll start for them in the series finale.
