Brady Singer took a shutout into the eighth inning and the Cincinnati Reds beat the Tampa Bay Rays 2-1 on Sunday for their fourth straight victory

Cincinnati Reds Pitch Their Way to a Sweep of Tampa Bay Rays. Singer was magnificent as the Reds swept Rays on Sunday to improve to 56-50 on the season.

The Rays are reportedly open to trading Yandy Diaz, possibly allowing the Red Sox to acquire one of their top trade deadline targets.

The game started with back-to-back singles by the top two guys on the Reds’ lineup, and after a slow roller to the left side of second base, Walls couldn’t quite make the play, and the Reds put the first one on the scoreboard.

The Cincinnati Reds have swept the Tampa Bay Rays during their weekend series matchup at Great American Ballpark.

BOTTOM LINE: The Tampa Bay Rays will try to end a six-game road losing streak when they visit the Cincinnati Reds. Cincinnati has a 30-22 record at home and a 55-50 record overall. The Reds have a 26-5 record in games when they hit at least two home runs.

Martinez went on to say the trade deadline was motivation for the 2025 Reds, who stood at 54-50 after Friday's victory and one game back of the San Diego Padres for the third National League Wild Card.

The Reds' hat was blue with a red wishbone "C" intended to call upon Reds uniforms from 1947-54. The Rays wore a black hat that contrasted against the navy uniform tops they wore on Saturday. The front of the cap featured Tampa's original green and yellow "TB" logo from their 1998 expansion season.

Another “L.” Down -400 lettermans. The one and only Stitches has been handicapping baseball, daily, for the Post since 2019. Miraculously, he has finished in the black twice. But wait there’s more. He showed his versatility by winning the Post’s NFL Best Bet crown last year.

All that's between the Reds and the 6 p.m. ET Trade Deadline on Thursday are three key games against the superstar-laden Dodgers. But as they've often stressed as a club seeking a playoff berth, there was no looking ahead.
