Reds Swept by Cardinals in Three

The Reds got swept 3-0 by the Cardinals, falling below .500 for the first time this season. Matt McLain hit two homers, including a game-tying shot in the 7th, but the bullpen couldn’t hold the lead. Rhett Lowder returned from injury but struggled, walking five and hitting another over three innings. The Cardinals scored two unearned runs in the 8th on defensive errors, sealing the loss. Chris Paddack gave up three runs, including a two-run homer, in the 6th. With the series loss and a tough road ahead to San Diego, the Reds’ woes continue against division rivals.
