On July 12, Jonathan India was hitting .215

“I started thinking the spotlight was on me to do the damage... We were missing Castellanos, Winker, Suárez, all these guys that do damage.”

Since then, he’s hitting .313.

“(I had to) trust who I was again.”

Nick Lodolo has eight strikeouts through five innings, and his fastball is as good as it's been all season.

Lodolo is currently the No. 1 starter in the Reds rotation, and he's continuing his standout rookie year.

[Reds Fanatic]

A walk and hit to start the 6th for the a
Rockies

Good job getting out of that jam

Got that earnie under 4 for the year too. Kid looks tough.

Since when did our relievers get so bad? Oh that's right...

Buck Farmer to the rescue!

Why not walk Blackmon after first base becomes open? Especially with a righty on deck?

Where was everybody while the Reds were winning?

Where was everybody while the Reds were winning?

I was out doing errands, listening on the radio. Just got home.

[Dawink]

Where was everybody while the Reds were winning?

I think because we were scared this would happen after Lodolo left and didn’t want to jinx it.

And it should be two to two imo

They obviously had someplace else they could go. Take that Bob!

[frostj14]

Well, another strong Lodolo performance goes for naught. As long as the Reds adhere to the pitch count limit they will never compete for championships with the quality of bullpen they have.

[Tony Cloninger]

They are not going to let rookie pitchers go into the 110-120 range in a non contending year. At least they are letting them go into 100. Next year. No lockout. No looming pandemic as of yet. I’m sure they might start letting the Top 3 starters on each team go a little longer.

[Sassy Sal]

Did not know Ty Steve was a pitcher previously. Interesting. Senzel is really banged up.

[icehole3]

Senzel hurt?

In his first 132 plate appearances this season, TJ Friedl had a single home run.

In his last 21 plate appearances, he has four homers.

Keeping that hit streak alive!!!

[Big Klu]

On This Date: In 2007, Joey Votto made his major-league debut, striking out vs. Guillermo Mota as a pinch-hitter for Gary Majewski in the sixth inning of an 11-7 loss to the Mets at GABP.

[cumberlandreds]

I don't know whether its a mirage or not but Friedl looks 100% better since coming back from the minors. I hope it continues.
