Reds rally back against Cubs, lose on walk-off wild pitch because of course
Joey Votto singled, but his amazing multi-base streak came to an end. The Joe Nuxhall Memorial Honorary Star of the Game A lot of you probably forgot that Phil Ervin, the 1st round pick of the Cincinnati Reds from the 2013 MLB Draft, was even back with the team. Hell, I had to check twice. That’s the case, however, as he was called up after Devin Mesoraco was placed back on the 10-day DL with a broken foot earlier this week. Well, Ervin’s back, and after a late game switch brought him into the game, the rookie smashed a solo homer for both his first career hit and first career dinger,...

Reds at Cubs, Game 3: Previews and Predictions
Cincinnati Reds @ Chicago Cubs 8:05 PM ET Homer Bailey vs. John Lackey Homer had a good bounce-back performance last week, after his 10-run stinker before that. John Lackey goes for the Cubs, who hasn’t given up more than 3 runs in a start since June. The story in this one, though, is that Joey Votto can do something that hasn’t been done since 1948 if he reaches base twice in this game. It’d be his 21st game in a row. Go Reds!
