## Resource

The Reds are in freefall, dropping their fifth straight game to the Brewers and now sitting at 39-45 overall with a brutal 4-19 record against NL Central foes. Rhett Lowder’s rough outing—six earned runs on eleven hits in 4.2 innings—highlighted a troubling trend, though his eight strikeouts hint at potential. Meanwhile, Brewers ace Brandon Sproat is dominating Cincinnati, striking out 17 in his last two starts. Ivan Johnson made his MLB debut but struck out in his first at-bat, while Jose Trevino’s offensive slump continues, raising questions about his contract extension. Still, there’s hope: Sal Stewart homered and went 2-for-4, and Elly De La Cruz added a double and a run, both showing consistent production and Rookie of the Year promise.
