Reds try baseball, lose baseball 6-5 to Phillies.

Another game. Another cold night. Another icy cold loss to send home the Redlegs tonight. Will nothing keep us warm at night?

Cody Reed pitched about the way you expected, and maybe even a little bit better, considering Reds fans expectations at this point (more on that later). Eugenio Suarez was obviously not here to help, as he was put on the DL earlier today. And as it turns out, Jesse Winker is under-the-weather, so he didn’t get the start today, either.

What wasn’t predictable, however, was the fact that the top of the order, replacing Winker and Suarez with Scooter and Peraza, was actually pretty productive tonight. Despite everything seeming hopeless, this one didn’t really feel it…
