Nothing like scoring 7 runs and losing by 6

Yeah, that pretty much sums it up.
Remember how nice it was to open the season against the Phillies two years in a row? The Reds didn’t get that luxury for a third consecutive season, instead drawing the Washington Nationals and the best hitter in baseball right now. No, not Bryce Harper. Nope, not Ryan Zimmerman either. Anthony Rendon? Negative.
Adam Eaton. The Washington leadoff hitter went 5-for-5 on the afternoon, including two doubles, four runs scored, and a home run, to lead the onslaught against Reds pitching.
