Reds Struggle as Offense Falters | Cincinnati Reds News

The Reds are in freefall, dropping a brutal series against the struggling Giants — and it’s getting worse. After losing two straight, including a 3-1 blowout, Cincinnati now sits at 1-4 on this road trip and nine games under .500. Their offense is nearly nonexistent: just one run all series, courtesy of Sal Stewart’s ninth-inning homer. Manager Francona blames poor contact, as hitters chase pitches and get themselves in trouble. Brady Singer started shaky — loading the bases with walks and hits in his first inning — then exited early after appearing to injure his side while fielding, though he stayed in to finish the inning. The team’s scoring drought continues, and with a brutal stretch ahead against playoff contenders, the Reds’ season is spiraling faster than ever.
