Reds Beat Pirates 4-1

Four Reds hit solo home runs on Monday night against the Pirates that traveled an estimated combined distance of 1,701 feet. Surely, those will make the highlight shows, because homers always draw attention. On the other hand, in less exciting form, Mike Leake keeps rolling. Leake’s seven innings were the foundation of the Reds’ 4-1 [...]

Red Sox Blank Clippers 4-0

Led by Dominican right-hander Ruby De La Rosa, the Pawtucket Red Sox shut out Columbus 4-0 in front of 12,088 patrons on a Dime-a-Night at Huntington Park. The Red Sox got on the board first with a pair of runs in the top of the second. Bryce Brentz led off the frame with a solo [...]

Royals Beat Indians 2-1

Indians starter Carlos Carrasco pitched well enough to earn his first victory of 2013, but the bullpen let things get away and the offense couldn’t keep up. Carrasco — making his first start since serving a seven-game suspension — left with one out and a man on second in the eighth inning, while the Indians [...]

Sanchez scored in the 6th minute on a deflected shot from [...]

Knights Beat Clippers 6-3

In their final game at Knights Stadium, the Columbus Clippers dropped a 6-3 decision to Charlotte. The Knights struck offensively with a big third inning. Brent Morel lined a bases clearing double down the left field. The extra base hit by Morel plated three and gave Charlotte an early 3-0 lead. That would not last [...]

Indians Blank Nationals 2-0

Corey Kluber wasn’t going to allow the Nationals to score any runs, no matter how many times they put a man in scoring position before making an out. Kluber escaped three hazardous jams during his eight scoreless innings on Sunday, leading the way to a 2-0 win over Washington that gives the Indians four victories [...]

Reds Beat Brewers 5-1

In the first inning of the Reds’ 5-1 win over the Brewers on Sunday, Johnny Cueto was thinking too much. Coming back from injury for the second time this season, he said he was trying too hard to be perfect in locating his pitches. But mostly, he couldn’t stop thinking about getting hurt again. As [...]
