REDS POSTCAST: Cincinnati Reds BLOW Ninth Inning Lead to Chicago Cubs in Unthinkable Meltdown

from Locked On Reds - Daily Podcast On The Cincinnati Reds · host Locked On Podcast Network

Cincinnati Reds suffer another heartbreaking defeat as the Chicago Cubs rally for a dramatic 7-6 win, exposing glaring issues in the Reds bullpen. With leads slipping away late and frustration mounting, questions grow louder—can Cincinnati break the cycle and find a way to close out tight games? Tim Daniel breaks down Brady Singer’s gritty start, Matt McLain’s offensive spark, and Tejay Antone’s inspiring return after a third Tommy John surgery. Key discussion points include Spencer Steer’s continued power, Will Benson’s multi-hit effort, and the impact of rare stats like Elly De La Cruz’s two-run sacrifice fly. The conversation captures fan frustrations, evaluates bullpen struggles, and sets the stage for tomorrow’s matchup as pressure builds for the Reds to end their losing streak.   Everydayer Club If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.
