Reds Spend Halladay At GABP, Rally Past Phillies 4-3
Things were very interesting during the Cincinnati Reds’ game against the Philadelphia Phillies Wednesday afternoon at Great American Ball Park.

Rhodes’ Collapse Helps Phillies Clip Reds 6-3 In Extras
Boy, what a ride it has been for Cincinnati Reds reliever Arthur Rhodes. Prior to Tuesday night’s game against the Philadelphia Phillies, he was easily mowing down batters and had an ERA just a bit above zero (0.28, to be exact). But as good as Arthur is, even he had to have an off-night like [...]

Choo Takes Arroyo To Woodshed, Indians Beat Reds 5-3
I would imagine that the vast majority of the 25,877 in attendance at Great American Ball Park were assuming – incorrectly as it were – that the Cincinnati Reds were going to have a strollin the park as they hosted the Cleveland Indians Sunday afternoon. Indians outfielder Shin Soo-Choo would ensure that would not be [...]
