The Cincinnati Reds entered this weekend on another hot streak, only to encounter an imposing speed bump set by the Milwaukee Brewers.
After having its five-game winning streak snapped with a 7-3 loss on Friday, Cincinnati will look for a bounce-back victory when the teams continue the three-game series on Saturday in Milwaukee.
"Unfortunately, even though we believed it was going to happen there at the end, it doesn't happen every single time," Reds manager David Bell said. "But to put yourself in a situation to have the opportunity to come back or tie it with one swing of the bat, that's really what you're trying to do in those situations. We were able to do that with some good at-bats at the end of the game.
"It was a good offensive night," Milwaukee manager Craig Counsell said. "We swung the bats well and produced a lot of pressure. We left some runners out there, unfortunately, but it was a good offensive night." The Brewers will send right-hander Colin Rea to the mound on Saturday. He gave up two runs in a season-high 6 2/3 innings in a 6-3 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates last Sunday.
