Another Reds comeback falls short in loss to Braves

Buried in the league splits page on Baseball-Reference.com is a category that just about encapsulates the Cincinnati Reds in 2017.

The Reds offense entered Sunday with an OPS of .775 when playing from behind, second in the National League only to the Washington Nationals. The Reds are good at it, but they’ve also had plenty of practice. They lead all NL clubs in plate appearances when trailing on the scoreboard, with 925.

That’s why Reds shortstop Zack Cozart sounded like he was running out of silver linings after Cincinnati’s 13-8 loss to the Atlanta Braves on Sunday at Great American Ball Park.
