The losses continue to pile up for the Cincinnati Reds. They have lost seven of their last nine games but capped off the series against the Philadelphia Phillies with an exciting 1-0 walk-off victory. Jose Barrero came through with a two-out single up the middle driving in Albert Almora Jr. to avoid the sweep. On the mound, Nick Lodolo turned in a fabulous performance pitching seven shutout innings. The young arms in the rotation at least continue to provide some hope for the future.
Cincinnati will take Thursday off before traveling to Pittsburgh for a three-game weekend series with the Pirates.
