Stephenson, Romano, Moustakas come up huge in the Reds double header sweep

The Cincinnati Reds (23-26) swept the Pittsburgh Pirates (14-32) in a double header on Monday evening, but it wasn’t easy. Game one ended on a walk-off 2-run homer by rookie Tyler Stephenson. Game two wound up being a blowout, but was a game the Reds were losing entering the bottom of the 5th inning and required a huge out by Sal Romano with the bases loaded in his 2020 season debut to set up the offensive explosion started by a 3-run homer from Mike Moustakas half an inning later.
