Hunter Greene nears record velocity, but drops duel to Pablo López in Reds loss to Marlins

Hunter Greene delivered one of his best starts of the season Tuesday at Great American Ball Park, but it wasn’t enough to match Miami Marlins righty Pablo López.

In a pitcher’s duel where somebody had to blink first, Greene permitted two runs in the fifth inning and López allowed one. That was the difference in the Cincinnati Reds’ 2-1 loss, snapping their eight-game home winning streak against the Marlins dating back to 2019.

"That's as good as stuff we've probably seen all year," Reds Manager David Bell said.
