Phillies at Reds: Matt Strahm’s odd outing, bats go silent in loss
One step forward, two steps back.
The Phillies find themselves back in the loss column on Saturday, falling 13-0 to the Reds. They were coming off of an all-around productive win Friday, snapping a three-game losing skid, but any motivation that might have been building from that has been smothered.
