Reds are nearly no-hit in a 6-1 loss to the Phillies

Cincinnati didn’t record a hit until Tyler Stephenson’s solo homer in the 8th inning as Matt Moore and the Phillies bullpen got the job done on the mound. The Reds defense had some issues, and Sean Doolittle giving up three runs in the bottom of the 8th inning put any comeback plans out of reach as Philadelphia won 6-1 to set up Sunday’s game for the winner to take the series.
