Reds Stranded, Abbott Shines

The Reds fell short again, dropping a heartbreaker to the Mets 4-2, but the real story? Seventeen runners stranded on base — a brutal display of wasted chances, especially with the bases loaded in the ninth. Despite that, Andrew Abbott shined once more, pitching six strong innings and giving up just two earned runs, continuing his impressive May run. But without offense backing him up, it’s frustrating — and costly. The team heads home to face the Braves, who own the best record in baseball, with a trio of pitchers ready to test their rotation. This loss is a wake-up call: good pitching alone won’t win games if you can’t score when it matters most. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
