CINCINNATI - Perhaps it was the baseball gods’ attempt at rectifying a scenario we’ve seen play out time and time again in 2019 - the Cincinnati Reds outscoring their opponents over the course of a series only to lose more games in it than they win. If Pythagoras is letting things normalize, perhaps there’s a good chance these Reds might actually find a way to flip that script against these St. Louis Cardinals in this 4-game series.
Last night, of course, the Reds scraped by with an elusive 1-run victory, only to get absolutely, positively pummeled in tonight’s 13-4 affair.
