‘Old man’ Arroyo pitching better than ever
Bronson Arroyo doesn’t look like an old man. He has the best hair on the team. He might be in the best shape of any Reds pitcher. He starts or punctuates many sentences with, “Man,” like a teenager might do but can talk at length and with authority about any ...
Cozart’s batting average on rise

4 solo homers send Reds over Pirates 4-1

Fortunately for the 23-year-old left-hander, that move did not involve a 100-mile drive to Triple-A Louisville, but rather a 400-foot walk to the bullpen at ...
Ask Hal: Don’t blame Reds for beating the bums
Hall-of-fame baseball writer Hal McCoy knows a thing or two about America’s pastime. If you’d like to tap into that knowledge, send a question to halmccoy@hotmail.com Q: Any chance the Cubs might be moved to the American League, because their series last week with the Reds was boring and embarrassing? ...
Hal: Cueto on, Brewers bats turned off
When Johnny Cueto is “on,” the opposition is better off staying in the dugout opening pumpkin seed packages or playing cribbage or wiping pine tar off batting helmets. Baseball bats are of little use. Father’s Day was an “on” day for Cueto, a triumphant return from the disabled list, after ...
Choo gets a day off on Father’s Day
Shin-Soo Choo carried a homemade Father’s Day card into the clubhouse before Sunday’s game against the Brewers at Great American Ball Park. He proudly showed it to the first teammate he saw, Jay Bruce, and pointed out that it was written half in Korean and half in English. One part ...

Cueto solid in return, lifts Reds over Brewers 5-1
Solid pitching from Johnny Cueto was all the Cincinnati Reds were looking for on Sunday. His deft work with the bat was a bonus. Cueto pitched six solid innings and drove in a run with a perfect suicide-squeeze in his return to the rotation and Jay Bruce homered to lift ...

Reds on fumes, lose to Brewers 6-0
Homer Bailey threw two wild pitches. The hitters' swings were just a little late. Sure looked like those two straight days of long, long games caught up with the Cincinnati Reds. Juan Francisco drove in three runs with a sacrifice fly and homer in a ballpark where he's had some ...
Francisco homers, Brewers beat Reds 6-0
For the first time, the Brewers learned what it's like to keep an opponent from crossing home plate. Pretty nice feeling, actually. Juan Francisco drove in three runs with a sacrifice fly and homer in a ballpark where he's had some big moments, and Yovani Gallardo pitched six innings on ...
