« Reds Fall in Game 1 vs. Phillies | Phillies Own Reds in Final Game »

Cincinnati lost the 2nd game of a scheduled 4 game series on Tuesday to the Philadelphia Phillies 3-2. The loss brings the Reds road record to an ugly 9-21 which is near the bottom in the ML. They now look at a record of 28-31 and are now just .5 games from sitting in last place of the NL Central.

Ken Griffey Jr. once again got the night off due to ‘general soreness’ and will have to get number 600 another time. Edwin Encarnacion had the most impressive game for the Reds as he went 2-for-4 including a triple and a homer with 1 RBI and 2 runs scored. The homer is his 10th of the season and his batting average now stands at .239. The only other RBI for the Reds came off the bat of pinch hitting catcher Javier Valentin who hit a sac-fly bringing in his 4th RBI of the year.

Aaron Harang took the mound for the Reds and had a mediocre start. He worked 6 inning allowing 8 hits, 3 runs, all earned, 1 walk and 4 K’s. He was given the loss for the game bringing his record to a poor 2-8 with a 3.86 ERA. The other 2 relievers that came in didn’t give up a hit or a run and struck out 4 in the process.

Not a very good game for the Reds as they only collected 5 hits total. They will now continue to slip to the cellar of the NL Central until they find a way to get things going offensively and on the road.
