The Cincinnati Reds have posted a .500 record this season, so splitting a four-game series against the Atlanta Braves wasn't out of the ordinary. Still, there was an element of disappointment this weekend.
All four starting pitchers went at least six innings. The bullpen allowed two earned runs in 11 innings despite losing Lucas Sims and Tejay Antone to injuries. There were defensive highlights.
Despite the positives, the Reds ended the weekend with a 4-0 loss at Great American Ball Park on Sunday, splitting the four-game set. The offense was shut out for the eighth time this season and held to two hits.
