[Recap] Reds smoked in series opener at Wrigley on eve of Hamilton/Harvey decision

Billy Hamilton had two hits in what could be his 659th and final game in a Cincinnati Reds uniform. Both Hamilton and Harvey were claimed on waivers, and the Reds have until tomorrow to make a trade to the mystery team or they will remain Reds through at least the end of the season.

Anthony DeSclafani got hurt again by the home run ball, and the Reds offense was held in check by Cole Hamels. The Reds collected four hits, a couple of them cheap hits, before Hamels recorded his fifth out. Hamels didn’t allow that to impact his start, and threw just the 11th complete game in the NL this season.
