In a predictably quiet and mostly empty clubhouse, starting pitcher Mike Leake wondered what the Reds needed to do to beat the Cardinals. The latest victim of the best offense in baseball, Leake lasted five-plus innings and gave up seven runs in a 15-2 rout on Sunday at Great American Ball Park, moving Cincinnati to […]

August 2, 2013 by
The Clippers could only muster one run on the scoreboard as Rickey Romero and Buffalo shut down Columbus 5-1 at Huntington Park. Jeremy Hermida got the Clippers off to good start offensively with a solo homer, his 15th of the year, to right center. That lead would not last long as Ryan Goins clubbed a […]

August 2, 2013 by
The party that has become Progressive Field kept on raging Thursday afternoon against the White Sox.

For all of the parties and hype building up to Kansas City’s first MLS All-Star game, AS Roma took the match itself seriously. It showed.

August 1, 2013 by
With his arcing liner threatening to breach the fence in right, Carlos Santana raced out of the batter’s box at Progressive Field, hoping his hit would go for four bases, not two. As it sailed into a frantic crowd, Santana hoisted an arm in satisfaction and carried on with his home-run trot. The rest of […]
Reds Beat Padres 4-1
August 1, 2013 by
None of the games from the Reds’ five-game losing streak can be brought back, and all the issues that helped contribute to those outcomes aren’t solved. But a 2,000-plus-mile flight home to Cincinnati, followed by a much-needed off-day, goes down much more enjoyably following a win. Homer Bailey once again provided a strong pitching performance […]

Indians Beat White Sox 7-4
July 31, 2013 by
The starters on other teams are probably jealous of the Indians’ bench. After Ryan Raburn and Jason Giambi recently ended games with walk-off home runs, Cleveland’s reserves were deservedly in the spotlight once more at Progressive Field on Tuesday night. With the Tribe trailing by one in the eighth inning, Raburn delivered a two-run single […]
