Reds vs. Phillies, Game 1: Preview, Lineups, Pitching Match-up
The most famous player to play for both the Reds and the Phillies.Another week, another series. Another 45-ish games left to go in this hellish season. The Reds send Mike Minor to the hill to face off against the red-hot Philadelphia Phillies. Minor is hoping to avoid a little history tonight. What’s that history, you ask?
The Reds have lost 9 straight games started by Mike Minor. He is trying to avoid becoming the first Reds pitcher to start in 10 straight losses since Homer Bailey started 11 straight team losses in 2018. That season, the Reds went 1-19 in Bailey's starts.
