Winning in St. Louis against the National League Central rival Cardinals is never easy. Over the weekend, the Cincinnati Reds made it a little harder on themselves with zero offense on Friday and shaky bullpen work on Saturday and Sunday. The Reds should have won the series, but wasted a strong pitching performance by Luis Castillo and company on Friday followed by a meltdown in the late innings on Saturday. In the end, all the Reds could manage was to avoid the sweep with a dramatic 7-6 Sunday late afternoon win. Cincinnati is now 21-39 through 60 games.
