The tying run came to the plate for the Reds in the 9th inning. It sucks that they lost but I didn’t see anything that tells me they can’t compete with one of the best teams in the league.

Agreed but they continue to lack the hitting which no one thought would be an issue. Have to wonder if and when it will turn around. And also if it will be too late to make a run when it does.

What a pathetic effort
I'm not so upset at the hitters as I am our pitchers who allowed their pitcher to get hits and drive in two runs-the difference in the ballgame. That is what I'm upset about. Good pitching is always there, but poor pitching beats you. Pitching was the difference today, and as good as the Reds pitching was, it wasn't good enough. It happens.

Not surprised at what happened last night. I saw Hendricks pitch an 81 pitch complete game a week or so ago against the Cardinals. He's tough on anyone and especially a team that can't seemingly hit like the Reds. It also doesn't help that Hendricks goes 3 for 4 and drives in the winning runs. Just a typical game from a last place team. I didn't watch much of the game last night. I decided to use my time and pay homage to two TV stars (Day and Conway) that recently passed by watching a few video clips of them on Youtube. I think used my time more wisely doing that.

Billy Bates had 6 major league hits before he ever played for the Reds. He didn't have any at bats with the Royals ever:
