It was a roller-coaster series out in Philadelphia for the Cincinnati Reds.
Cincinnati’s first road trip of the young season was pushed back due to Thursday’s rainout. Friday’s series-opener got off to a poor start for the Reds, then the Phillies scored three runs in the bottom of the ninth inning on Saturday evening to set up a potential series sweep on Sunday. However, the Reds had other plans. A ninth-inning comeback of its own snapped a three-game losing streak and moved Cincinnati back to .500 on the year at 4-4.
At the plate, Tyler Stephenson is off to a blistering start having hit safely in all eight games.
