Cincinnati Reds recap: Milwaukee Brewers take series opener

The Reds bullpen gave up just one run in five innings, but that was the difference in Tuesday’s 7-6 loss to the Brewers at Miller Park.

"When you fall behind by that many, you really have to pitch perfect out of the bullpen and that's unfair," Reds manager Bryan Price said. "You can't ask your bullpen to cover that many innings without having a hiccup or two along the way. We were unable to pitch perfect out of the pen. However, we pitched pretty darn good and gave ourselves a chance to grab this game late, we just weren't able to get that big hit at the end.
