!0-0 Astros, at least it's over.  Here we are 8 days into May and the season is over for the Reds.

Reds get shutout once again and lose tonight 10-0. We are still 0 for the month of May. We have been outscored so far this month 60-23. The Reds have lost 8 in a row and 8 of their last 9 game and now are just 1 game over .500.

From Lance:

Astros 10 Cincinnati Reds 0

The repeated boos told the story from GABP. Make it eight straight losses. It was embarrassing. How embarrassing? Jose Trevino pitched….again.

Some guy named Mike Burrows tossed a career best seven innings, allowing the Reds no runs on three hits. He entered the game with an ERA of 5.04.

The Reds (20-19) have been outscored 60-23 during the losing streak.

They have dropped 10 of 12.

The Astros have 14 players on the IL and stand 16-23.

Tony Santillan pitched batting practice in the 8th, allowing four runs and two homers in failing to retire a batter,

Nick Lodolo made his season debut, allowing two two-run homers over 5.1 innings, showing no signs of blister issues,

Flow: Down 2-0 2nd, 4-0 6th, 5-0 8th, 10-0 9th.

Offense: 5 H, 1 BB, 8 K

Elly: 2 H

Lodolo: 5.1 IN, 5 H, 4 R, 1 BB, 2 K, 2 2-R HR, 78 pitches/53 strikes.

Hit a batter w/ 2 strikes then Alvarez homered to make 4-0.

Bullpen: Johnson 1.2, Antone 1.0, R, Santillan 0.0, 4 R, Trevino 1.0, R

Santillan and Ashcraft are making the Pagan haters think again.

The Reds and Chase Burns trail the Astors today 1-0 in the top of the 5th inning. Burns just gave up a solo shot.

3-1 Reds after 5.

Reds answer back in the bottom of the 5th and put 3 runs up on a two-run single by McLain and a RBI single by Elly.

3-1 reds after 7.

We got the bleeding stopped, but will the tourniquet hold for very long?

Reds so far looking good today as they are up 5-0 after 7 innings. A strong outing by Abbott.
