Hunter Greene threw plenty of strikes on Tuesday night in Seattle, but he struggled to put away hitters in an efficient enough manner to get deep into a game the Cincinnati Reds eventually lose 3-1. The Reds righthander eventually fanned 8 Mariners on the day, but a trio of walks, an untimely HBP, deep counts, and a lot of foul balls led to his exit after just 4.0 IP - a gluttonous 98 pitches needed to get just to that point.
That put a lot on the table for a Cincinnati bullpen that had already dealt with a short outing from Frankie Montas in the series.
