Hit-n-Run
Go Reds!!!
Tyler Mahle made his 1st start in Louisville. He went 6 IP, 3 ER, 1BB, 1 K. The 1 K is a bit surprising, but maybe he was working on trying to get the hitter to put the ball in play earlier in the at bat. Making quality pitches and weak contact is the key to pitching deeper into games. It's an area he needs to improve on.
Mahle was followed by Brandon Finnegan who has been a trainwreck in Louisville. He went 2/3 of an inning allowing 3 ER. Whether it's physical or just a bad attitude, he has tanked since being injured. He'd have to be under consideration to be DFA. If he is and not claimed off waivers he's still under team control and can be kept in the farm system.
Brandon Phillis also played in the game. He's in the Bosox farm system playing for Pawtucket. Tony Renda is playing for Pawtucket also.
