Reds can’t capitalize on Weaver’s strong outing, fall to Cardinals 2-1

The Cincinnati Reds came into Thursday’s matinee with the St. Louis Cardinals with a chance to take 3 of 4 from the Red Birds. With the way the offense had hit the ball this series, all they needed was a strong start from Luke Weaver to get the job done. Luke Weaver more than delivered, putting up his best outing of the season and throwing 6.1 solid innings, allowing no runs on only 3 hits with a walk and 6 strikeouts. That was a performance worthy enough for today’s Joe Nuxhall Memorial Honorary Star of the Game.
