Reds bullpen loses lead in loss to Diamondbacks, team loses Tyler Stephenson to injury

All losses are painful, but Thursday was a cruel way for the Cincinnati Reds to end their homestand.

Not long after the Reds lost Tyler Stephenson to a broken thumb, which will sideline him for at least the next month, Tony Santillan coughed up a two-run lead in the top of the ninth inning during a 5-4 loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks in their series finale.

The Reds already have 15 players on the injured list and now they'll be without Stephenson, who had a big role in helping the Reds recover from their 3-22 start to the season.
