Reds held to four hits in series-opening loss

Brandon Finnegan walked five over four innings, allowing three runs on four hits -- the last of which was a Goeddel two-run triple that erased the deficit caused by his earlier error. The next batter, Hellickson, laid down a perfect safety squeeze to plate Goeddel to give the Phillies the lead for good.

MOMENTS THAT MATTERED
Reds benefit from error: Before Goeddel boosted his club in the fourth, the Reds capitalized on his poor fielding in the second inning. Following a two-out double by Adam Duvall and an infield hit by Tyler Holt, Tucker Barnhart skied a fly near the left field line at the warning track.
