The Cincinnati Reds lost to the St. Louis Cardinals, completing a weekend sweep on June 7. The Reds’ bullpen faltered again late in the game, continuing a troubling trend. Cincinnati has now dropped four straight games and five of its last six, scoring just 24 runs in their last ten games. Elly De La Cruz’s absence due to a hamstring issue has exacerbated the team's offensive struggles. The Reds sit at 31-33, and the front office has not identified a viable solution to their pitching woes.
