For the sake of repitition, the Cincinnati Reds, despite being in fourth place, are in what I would describe as a must-win situation. Granted, they were 51-55 prior to their game Saturday against the defending World Series champion San Francisco Giants; however, because the National League Central Division has four teams within 6.5 games of [...]

Infield Bobbles Help Reds Beat Bucs 3-1
With the National League Central Division currently in a weakened state (four teams within 5 games of each other as of July 20), one would think that the Cincinnati Reds would make hay while the sun shone down on them. Enter Johnny Cueto and to an extent, the butter-fingered Pittsburgh Pirates as both teams got [...]
Reds Outlast Cardinals In 13-Inning Roller Coaster Ride 9-8
In my personal opinion, it does not matter to me which of the 30 Major League Baseball teams that you are. I pose this question to you, a baseball and Cincinnati Reds fan and a regular reader of The Reds Report: How does a team, even with the offensive power that the Reds possess [...]
Reds Drop Second Straight To Indians At GABP 3-1
I think it is safe to say that after Saturday’s game aganst the Cleveland Indians, the Cincinnati Reds will be glad to be done with interleague play. The Indians’ bullpen, a well-guarded secret of the team’s success, was a major factor in ensuring their 2-1 win over the Reds at Great American Ball Park. Of [...]
7-Run Sixth Helps Reds Rally, Beat Cubs 7-4
With the tip of the ballcap to the older version of the early NFL Cleveland Browns, the Cincinnati Reds have become the modern day version of the “Kardiac Kids.” Granted, the Reds have won their games in just about every possible way out there, but perhaps not quite in the fashion that they did [...]
Votto RBI Single In 10th Helps Reds Rally, Beat Cardinals 6-5
Joey Votto, last season’s National League Most Valuable Player, has had a stellar season thus far (.351, 5 HR, 22 RBI, 30 runs scored) despite the fact that he hasn’t hit a home run in the month of May. Friday night’s game between the St. Louis Cardinals and Cincinnati Reds at Great American Ball Park was [...]
Bailey Has Second Straight Strong Outing, Reds Pound Astros 7-3
Interestingly enough, Cincinnati Reds pitcher Homer Bailey’s season debut was against the Houston Astros. Intersting in the fact that he hails from the state of Texas. Of course, Bailey’s season debut against these Astros at Great American Ball Park last Thursday was a success, having defeated the Astros 10-4 as he went six innings and gave [...]
Cueto Strong In Season Debut, Reds Blank Cubs 2-0
Perhaps it is a test of an offensively-charged pro baseball team when they get the occasional game where offense is difficult to come by and the pitching determines the outcome of a game. This was most certainly the case for the Cincinnati Reds as they took on the Chicago Cubs Sunday afternoon at Wrigley Field. [...]
