The Reds were one out away Wednesday afternoon from not scoring more than three runs in 12 consecutive games for the first time in nearly 66 years. Had it not been for Devin Mesoraco’s three-run homer off D-backs closer Addison Reed with two outs in the ninth, Cincinnati might have set the longest such streak […]
Tides Beat Clippers 6-5

Mariners Beat Indians 5-2
More often than not this season, Trevor Bauer has proven a surprising model of consistency for a club that has lacked that trait in its starting pitching. On Tuesday night, Tribe fans were reminded that the 23-year-old still has some growing pains to work through — and that the team as a whole still needs […]
Reds Beat D-backs 3-0 for Chapman’s 100th Save
It wasn’t raining runs for the Reds on Tuesday night vs. the D-backs, but they didn’t need the deluge — just more than the slow trickle of offense they’ve gotten lately.

D-backs Beat Reds 2-1
As the Reds near the non-waiver Trade Deadline on Thursday, they’ve showed that they need more than just a bat to reverse their post-All Star break swoon. That could not have been more apparent than during a six-hit effort over 15 innings before the Reds were handed a 2-1 defeat by the D-backs at Great […]
Crew Beats Struggling Revolution 2-1
Squared at one with time dwindling, the Columbus Crew struck down New England on an Ethan Finlay goal in the 84th minute, sending the Revs to their eighth straight loss behind a 2-1 victory Saturday night at Gillette Stadium.

Clippers Whip Tide 11-5
The Columbus Clippers (58-52) rolled the Norfolk Tides (50-59) 11-5 Sunday night. The ebbs and flows of a long season continued as the Clippers scored as many runs Sunday as in their previous three combined against the Tides. There was a delay of little more than half an hour in a 4-3 game and the […]
Indians Down Royals 10-3
There were days early on this season when Carlos Santana looked lost at the plate. It reached a point where manager Terry Francona conceded that stubbornness had overtaken patience in his continual use of the first baseman in the cleanup spot. Those days have long since gone by. On Sunday afternoon, Santana continued his two-month […]
Nationals Beat Reds 4-2
After the Reds’ series finale against the Nationals at Great American Ball Park on Sunday, the word “faith” was spoken several times in the Cincinnati clubhouse. And after the outcome on the field, the Reds’ faith continues to be tested. Right-hander Mat Latos gave up three runs on three hits over six innings, but Cincinnati’s […]
