Matt Moore entered Saturday’s start against the Cincinnati Reds with a 6.79 ERA on the season. That was the 6th highest by any of the 194 MLB pitchers who had thrown at least 50 innings so far in 2021.
Naturally, he threw 6 no-hit frames against the Reds, spearheading dominant outing against them for the Philadelphia Phillies just a day after presumptive NL Cy Young Award leader Zack Wheeler was lit up by the Reds offense. Baseball!
Luis Castillo had some of his most electric stuff ever working for the Reds today, an effort that will unfortunately go unremembered in the team win column.
