Reds slide from 2nd to 4th place with loss to Braves

Post by ramfandan »

The Cincinnati Reds tonight tumbled from a 3-way tie for 2nd place to 4th in the NL Central with just one loss.
Reds lost to Atlanta 5-4 in 11 innings.

Reds are now 19-20 in 4th while the idle Cardinals and Brewers remain tied for 2nd place at 19-19.

beat me to it.
game just ended moments ago.
how'd you do that so fast.
acutally, I think I know.
gameday on ESPN (and maybe other sources) is always about 10 seconds ahead of my TV feed.

What real difference does this make. These teams are going to bounce back and forth.

Worse than any of the 3 losses the Reds had to the Braves that series was losing Hunter Greene. He’s going to be placed on the IL and will miss at least a couple starts.

Wait till the Cards record after this road trip. Can't wait to see the fuming over today's game on Apple TV!

Every road game is tough but the Nats are a talented and fun-to-watch young team that's getting better so the Cards should take care not to waste opportunities to put the game away.

Cue the why can't Jordan Walker hit like James Wood complaints.

Reds record is borderline bizarre considering their +29 run differential.

Especially with 4 starters whose ERA is 3.66 or less, and two of them have ERA less than 3.

Is it possible there's a BP worse than the Cardinals? They've scored 11 more runs the Cards so something funny going on.

The Nats, for one. There are lots more. Just because the Cards' pen isn't elite doesn't mean it's lousy.
