Reds vs. Phillies, Game 1: Preview, Lineups, Pitching Match-up

Another week, another series. Another 45-ish games left to go in this hellish season. The Reds send Mike Minor to the hill to face off against the red-hot Philadelphia Phillies. Minor is hoping to avoid a little history tonight. What’s that history, you ask?

Oh. Anyway, Noah Syndergaard is making his third start for the Phillies since being acquired at the trade deadline. He’s pretty good, I guess. He’s making his third career start at GABP where he’s only allowed 2-runs. Tune in and maybe you’ll see the guy with the highest career OPS at GABP hit another dinger. Go Reds.

News

• Reds’ prospect Jay Allen is getting promoted from Daytona to High-A Dayton.
• Nick Senzel left yesterday’s game early with Hamstring tightness. Fortunately, it sounds like it was just precautionary.
