In a game that featured little offense it was a clutch 2-out, 2-run double in the bottom of the 6th inning by Joey Votto that was the difference. Sonny Gray’s return to the mound was followed by five relievers combining to close the game out as the Cincinnati Reds hung on to a 2-1 win over the Chicago Cubs.

The Offense
For some reason when the Reds see Sonny Gray on the mound they leave their bats in the dugout.
