Reds vs. Pirates: Hunter Greene and Art Warren meet in eight unsuccessful rounds, but Cincinnati loses the game

The Cincinnati Reds on Sunday threw eight combined rounds against the Pittsburgh Pirates at PNC Park. However, the pirates managed to win the match With a score of 1-0.

The match remained goalless until the bottom line for eighth, when the Buccaneers got three walks to hold the bases. At that point, KeBryan Hayes hit a player to second place that looked like a potential double play at the end. However, Alejo Lopez dodges the transfer, and Hayes manages to overpower his throw for a force from the RBI.

That result was held when David Bednar worked out a perfect ninth-place finish in his seventh save of the season. Since the Buccaneers were at home and didn’t hit the bottom of the ninth, he dropped as an eight-stroke player with the Reds.
