Nick Kirby and Trace Fowler recap the Cincinnati Reds tight win over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Tuesday night. They talk about yet another big start from Nick Lodolo, and how he is not just the ACE of the Reds, but one of the best pitchers in baseball. They talk about a big day from Santiago Espinal, the Reds surprisingly great defense, Alexis Diaz getting the job done and the improved play of Tyler Stephenson and Jonathan India. Plus a recap of all the Reds minor league action and a preview of Wednesday's rubber matchup against the Pirates.
