The Cincinnati Reds and Houston Astros finished up a three game series on Thursday afternoon and it was the Astros coming out on top by the score of 3-2. With the one run loss, the Reds dropped two out of three games down in Houston and dropped their season record to 58-76 but not like it matters at this point in the season.
Aaron Harang tool the loss and is now 4-14 on the year. He didn’t throw the ball that badly as he did pitch seven innings. Harang gave up seven hits and three runs and the Reds offense wasn’t there to back him up.
At the plate, Jay Bruce had a rbi triple in the seventh inning and then Corey Patterson knocked him in with a rbi single. Those were the only two runs the Reds would get on the day as they struggled at the plate and struckout ten times.
