The Cincinnati Reds return home after an up-and-down six-game road trip and open a three-game set against the Los Angeles Angels on Friday night. The Reds won their first three games of the trip, outscoring the Chicago White Sox 27-5 to record their first sweep of the season.

That doesn’t mean the Reds can’t still fix some, though.
The Cincinnati Reds had a hit on Wednesday. A hit - a Chumbawamba, a ? and the Mysterians, a Los Del Rio.
In turning around a Bryce Miller meatball for a solo homer, Elly De La Cruz made sure the one hit the team mustered at least got them a scratch on the scoreboard. Walks, misplays, and unfortunate bullpen performance, however, meant that they sunk to a third consecutive defeat at the...

And, thusly, the Reds dropped the road series before Wednesday’s finale.
Hunter Greene threw plenty of strikes on Tuesday night in Seattle, but he struggled to put away hitters in an efficient enough manner to get deep into a game the Cincinnati Reds eventually lose 3-1. The Reds righthander eventually fanned 8 Mariners on the day, but a trio of walks, an untimely HBP, deep counts, and a lot of foul balls led to his exit after just 4.0 IP - a...
The Reds are coming off a three-game sweep of the Chicago White Sox and now sit tied for third in the NL Central at 9-6 on the season. They now head out west to face the 6-10 Seattle Mariners who are coming off a three-game series with the Chicago Cubs, which they lost two games to one.

A tought night for Cincinnati’s Opening Day starter.
Monday marked Jackie Robinson Day across Major League Baseball, honoring him on the day he made his MLB debut back on April 15th, 1947. Back in 2007, future Hall of Famer Ken Griffey, Jr. made a special request to then-commissioner Bud Selig to wear the #42 on Jackie Robinson Day to help spread the honor, an action that quickly grew into every single MLB player wearing #42 every April 15th.
Junior, of...

It was a glorious weekend for the Reds against the southsiders.
The Cincinnati Reds routed the hapless Chicago White Sox on Sunday 11-4, and by doing so wrapped a three-game series sweep of the AL Central club for the first time in Chicago.
It was a series that also featured a 5-0 shutout and 11-1 thumping, and clearly the Sox are mired in the kind of half-rebuild, half-injury-hell that the Reds themselves so recently slogged through. Here are three...
Christian Encarnacion-Strand and Nick Martini belted two-run homers to lead the visiting Cincinnati Reds to a 11-4 win Sunday and a three-game sweep of the Chicago White Sox.

Graham Ashcraft looks like he could gut a largemouth, change your tire, and spin 6 frames of scoreless ball all in the same afternoon. He starts today for the Cincinnati Reds as they look to sweep the weekend series in the south side of Chicago against the hapless White Sox.
First pitch is set for 2:10 PM ET. Go Reds!
Today's Lineups Jonathan India - 2B Robbie Grossman - RF Will Benson - CF Andrew Benintendi - LF Christian...The Chicago White Sox dropped their third straight game and suffered their fifth shutout loss of the season on Saturday. The Cincinnai Reds' five-run second inning was all they needed to defeat the White Sox and take the weekend series.
Nick Lodolo of the Cincinnati Reds is expected to pitch in his first game of the season during the team’s upcoming visit to the Chicago White Sox on Saturday.
Cincinnati Reds center fielder TJ Friedl has fallen behind a bit when it comes to his rehab from a fractured wrist which he suffered in spring training.
Nick Lodolo threw five no-hit innings before allowing a ground-ball single to open the sixth in his first start in 11 months as the visiting Cincinnati Reds blanked the Chicago White Sox 5-0 on Saturday afternoon.
The Cincinnati Reds beat the Chicago White Sox 11-1 last evening in the opening game of their three-game set against each other. The Reds have a 5-0 lead already in game two.

Welcome back, Ace!
We barely saw any of Cincinnati Reds lefty Nick Lodolo last year, and when we did, it was rather awful.
His velocity was down a tick, and his patented control - something he began while at Texas Christian University to make him a 1st round pick and later perfected in his first years as a pro - wasn’t there, either. It wasn’t that he was walking folks, per se, but he was missing within the zone repeatedly and being punished by...
Cincinnati Reds left-hander Nick Lodolo is slated to make his season debut when his team visits the Chicago White Sox on Saturday. Lodolo will be happy to know his shortstop, Elly De La Cruz, is clicking behind him.
Elly De La Cruz and Tyler Stephenson connected for back-to-back home runs and Andrew Abbott pitched seven strong innings to lift the Cincinnati Reds to an 11-1 win against the host Chicago White Sox on Friday.
