Reds split doubleheader with Royals on day overshadowed by Thom Brennaman’s use of slur

This is not our typical recap.

This was not the typical night in the Cincinnati Reds universe.

After four days away from playing baseball due to a positive COVID-19 test in the midst of playing baseball in fan-less stadiums during a pandemic, the Reds again took the field today. Some of them, at least, as Nick Senzel is on the Injured List for so far ‘undisclosed’ reasons, which you can interpret yourselves. It was in a doubleheader, though not the way we’ve come to know them, as a pair of 7-inning contests were to be played in this odd, odd season.
