Cincinnati Reds Lose In Pittsburgh Again, Drop Series Against Pirates... Back Below .500

The Cincinnati Reds' recent series loss to the Pittsburgh Pirates in May 2025 at PNC Park highlighted both their persistent offensive struggles and the resilience of their pitching staff, casting a shadow over their postseason aspirations. Entering the three-game set with a four-game winning streak and a .500 record, the Reds hoped to capitalize on the Pirates' last-place standing in the NL Central. However, despite stellar pitching, the Reds dropped two of three games, falling to 25-26 and exposing critical weaknesses that could define their season. In the series opener on May 19, the Reds secured a convincing 7-1 victory, driven by a late offensive surge with five runs in the final two innings. Austin Hays' three-hit performance and Nick Lodolo's six strong innings set an optimistic tone. However, the momentum fizzled in the next two games. On May 20, Pittsburgh's Bailey Falter outdueled Nick Martinez, who allowed just one run over six innings, but the Reds' offense was silenced in a 1-0 shutout. Bryan Reynolds' RBI single in the sixth proved decisive, as Cincinnati managed only four hits. The series finale on May 21 saw another pitching gem wasted, with Brady Singer allowing two runs over five innings, but the Reds' bats mustered just one run in a 3-1 loss to Andrew Heaney and the Pirates' bullpen. The Reds' offense was abysmal, scoring one run across the final 18 innings, with nine hits and a 1-for-10 mark with runners in scoring position. Manager Terry Francona, in his first year with Cincinnati, called it “just baseball,” but fans on X expressed frustration, labeling the team “mentally weak” for collapsing against a weaker opponent. Despite limiting Pittsburgh to five runs over the series, the Reds' inability to produce timely hits underscored a season-long issue, with injuries to Jake Fraley and others not helping. On a positive note, the Reds' starting pitchers posted a 1.70 ERA over their last seven games, and Hunter Greene's imminent return from a groin injury offers hope. However, with a crucial stretch of division games ahead, including six against the first-place Chicago Cubs, the Reds must address their offensive woes to stay in the wild-card race. This series loss, while not catastrophic, serves as a stark reminder of the fine margins in a competitive season.

North Shore Nine Postgame Show Powered by Primanti Brother's. The Pirates dropped another lifeless one in Philly as Zack Wheeler diced up the lineup for 7 shutout innings. Bryan Reynolds broke up the shutout with a 9th-inning homer, but it was far too little, far too late. Oneil Cruz and Andrew McCutchen combined to go 0-for-7 with 6 strikeouts, and Carmen Mlodzinski once again failed to pitch deep into a game. The offense has now scored fewer than five runs in 22 straight games, and fans are running out of ways to describe just how bad it's gotten. Tyler and Ryan break it all down—Cruz's concerning at-bats, Horwitz's return (and quick hook), the endless carousel at first base, and why it's time to shut down the Mlodzinski starting experiment for good.

Host Adam Bittner welcomes Post-Gazette sports columnist Jason Maceky to react to a busy week in Pittsburgh sports news, which included the release of the Steelers' schedule on Wednesday night. Is the NFL signaling that it expects Aaron Rodgers will ultimately sign with the team by creating a Week 1 matchup with the New York Jets, his former squad? How intrigued should we be by an early meeting with former Steelers QB Justin Fields? And is it a good thing or a bad thing that coach Mike Tomlin and Co. will face another late-season gauntlet with games against the Super Bowl-contending Bills, Ravens and Lions? Our duo tackles those questions, plus Jason's reaction to what we saw from names including Derrick Harmon, Will Howad, Kaleb Johnson and Jack Sawyer at rookie minicamp. Then on other fronts, they discuss the Penguins coaching search and College Football Playoff expansion. Is Washington Capitals assistant Mitch Love a name that should be high on fans' list? And is the ACC right in fighting the Big Ten and SEC proposals for how the playoff will look moving forward? Then in the third segment, airing on the PG's Pirates YouTube channel, Adam and Jason react to Jason's interview with Pirates owner Bob Nutting following the firing of manager Derek Shelton last week. Does Nutting have any actual power to improve the Pirates' economic disadvantage against teams like the Dodgers, Mets and Yankees? Why did he fire Shelton but not GM Ben Cherington, who's also struggled in his role? Has Nutting oversold the impact of injuries to names like Spencer Horwitz and Jared Jones on the team's slow start? What can be done to get names like Bryan Reynolds back on track? And is it past time that Bubba Chandler was promoted to the big leagues?

Post-Gazette Pirates insiders Noah Hiles and Colin Beazley break down the Pirates' series sweep, their second in a row, at the hands of the St. Louis Cardinals, which concluded Wednesday afternoon with a 5-0 loss, their seventh in a row. The conversation starts with a rundown of the last six years of the Ben Cherington and Derek Shelton era, with some surprise that a season with moderately expectations — internally, at least — has gone the way it has. Is it time for a managerial change or in the front office? Then Noah describes what he saw on his trip to St. Louis and how bad the vibes have gotten in the Pirates clubhouse. What went wrong during the sweep? Is Paul Skenes pitching well enough? What can Pirates bats like Andrew McCutchen, Oneil Cruz and Bryan Reynolds do so the team stops squandering quality starts from pitchers like Skenes and Mitch Keller.

We also dive into some questionable managerial decisions, look at the state of the Pirates' pitching staff, and discuss what comes next as the team looks to rebound.

The Cincinnati Reds and Pittsburgh Pirates kick off a three-game series at Great American Ball Park this weekend, April 11-13, 2025, with both teams looking to climb out of the NL Central basement. Tied for last place, this matchup feels like a generational clash of two franchises struggling to recapture past glory. The Reds, favored slightly at -155 for Friday's opener, aim to capitalize on home-field advantage, while the Pirates, at +129, hope to spoil the party. Friday's game sets the tone with Reds' right-hander Brady Singer facing Pittsburgh's lefty Bailey Falter. Singer, projected to anchor Cincinnati's rotation, looks to exploit a Pirates offense averaging a meager 2.6 runs over their last five games, with a .198 batting average and just one homer in their past three. Falter, coming off a rough outing against the Yankees, allowed seven runs, but his earlier start showed promise with only two earned runs over six innings. The Reds' lineup, led by Elly De La Cruz's .250 average and 12 RBI, will test Falter's ability to rebound. TJ Friedl and Jose Trevino add depth, though Cincinnati's 26th-ranked .231 team average last season suggests inconsistency. Saturday's 6:40 p.m. ET clash and Sunday's 1:40 p.m. ET finale remain murkier, with Pittsburgh's Carmen Mlodzinski slated for Sunday but no Reds starter confirmed. Cincinnati's rotation faces challenges, with Andrew Abbott potentially returning from injury, but their pitching staff boasts a 3.15 ERA and 0.98 WHIP, a clear edge over Pittsburgh's sputtering offense. The Pirates dodge a bullet missing Paul Skenes, whose absence leaves their rotation thinner. Pittsburgh's -19 run differential, worst in the NL Central, underscores their early-season woes. Both teams have injury concerns: Cincinnati's Matt McLain, Tyler Stephenson, and others are sidelined, while Pittsburgh's Johan Oviedo remains out. Yet, this series feels like a chance for the Reds to make a statement. Their losses have been close, unlike Pittsburgh's blowouts. With Friday's game on Apple TV+ and the weekend on FanDuel Sports Ohio, fans can expect tight, low-scoring affairs—Vegas sets the over/under at 8.5 runs for Friday. De La Cruz's speed and power could tilt the scales, but Pittsburgh's Bryan Reynolds might counter if he finds his groove. Expect a gritty, pivotal series as both teams fight for early momentum.

Did Steelers GM Omar Khan back himself into a corner by not addressing the defensive line in a major way in free agency? Forcing a possible tough choice between QBs like Shedeur Sanders and Jaxson Dart and DLs like Kenneth Grant, Derrick Harmon and Walter Nolen in the NFL draft? Are negotiations between the Steelers and star pass rusher T.J. Watt going poorly? As NFL Network insider Ian Rapoport suggested Thursday following the release of a cryptic Instagram post from Watt? Or are fans and media getting ahead of themselves in reacting to the innocuous photo of Watt flashing a peace sign? Is giving Watt and extension the right move, given his personal lack of playoff success? And how long can he, Cam Heyward and Minkah Fitzpatrick realistically be cornerstones of Mike Tomlin's defense as they have been for much of the last decade? Paul tackles those questions, Sanders' visit to the team's facility ahead of the NFL draft and the Pirates' series victory against the St. Louis Cardinals. Does it suggest a turnaround could be ahead for Paul Skenes, Bryan Reynolds, Andrew McCutchen, etc.? Or are the obvious offensive woes still a major concern?

If anyone outside of the clubhouse has their finger on the pulse of the Pittsburgh Pirates, it's long time play by play announcer Greg Brown. We are fortunate to have him join us on this episode to take a peek into the 2025 Pirates. With few roster roster and coaching changes can we expect much of the same or does one of the best young pitching staffs in baseball lead by All Rookie of the Year and CY Young candidate Paul Skenes take this team to a level they have not seen since 2013-2015.    Lets jump right into the off season, the team spent under 12 million dollars to fill spots that were in need. Did they really address these needs with upgrades when all they did were 1 year deals with aging veterans or guys looking for an opportunity?   Who would you say is the most important acquisition of the off season?    Spencer Horwitz was traded for in a 3 team deal to be a mainstay hopefully at first base. Coming in, Ben Cherrington knew that a wrist injury has been an issue. Why did he make the deal and if so why give up so much starting with Luis Ortiz?   With Horwitz out now, who will play first base in his absence? What is the timeline from his return and what can the Pirates expect from him.   Recently, the Pirates signed Tommy Pham, a 37 year old journeyman outfielder. Why? He has a history and a not so favorable one at that.    What role does Isiah Kiner-Falefa play on the 2025 Pirates? He has been known predominantly as a highly productive utility player but word on the street is that he could be the everyday shortstop and that's not his strong suit.   Where will the power source come from with this team? Andrew McCutcheon at 38 years old and Bryan Reynolds could be two sources.    Before we move on to the pitching staff, share what you believe will be the most days starting 8 (I know Shelton has his Sunday lineup).   Paul Skenes is a generational player. What can Pirate fans expect next from him after he was an All-Star, Rookie of the Year and a Cy Young candidate in his ¾ of a season.   Can Jared Jones maintain his #2 role? It looks like he will be needed to replicate his success from last year or will Mitch Keller swap spots with him to alleviate some of the pressure and innings.    Please project the starting five pitchers.    How did the Pirates help their bullpen?  Will Bednar and Holderman bounce back from somewhat disappointing seasons and what makes you believe that?   You've been around Pirate baseball for 31 years, why should fans trust that this team is going to be different based on what they know from the off season and past recent seasons.   Are Derek Shelton and Ben Cherrington sitting on hot seats?      Instead of predicting a record lets say will they be over or under 82 wins this season?   Rashene Hill rage against the Rashene- Instagram  Rashene Hill-facebook  @rashenehill-tik tok rj the hill-x Michael “Chops” Mills @therealbigchops  Terry “T-sizzle” Young : Instagram and Twitter @1tyoungy Kevin Watson:@coachkwatt10 on threads Facebook: Kevin Watson Mike Neubeiser: X and Instagram @CoachNeub  ===========================  CONNECT WITH US  ===========================  Check out our websites, social media and networks we are featured on:  https://www.originalsportspodcast.com    Find us on Facebook, X, And SnapChat @ OSPwithMM   https://www.facebook.com/OSPwithMM  https://twitter.com/OSPwithMM      OSP   Follow our Instagram, TikTok, Twitch and YouTube @  OriginalSportsPodcast https://www.instagram.com/originalsportspodcast   OriginalSportsPodcast  https://www.twitch.tv/ospwithmarkmaradei  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVZuudj681oIAbnscyHBa0g?view_as=subscriber    You can also use our LinkTree to access all our locations at : https://linktr.ee/Originalsportspodcast    Find us on: Let's Talk Sports Network, https://sidelinesportsnet.com/  and Elite Sports and Entertainment Network. https://linktr.ee/ESENetwork , https://manningmediainc.com/ , https://www.peakonesportsnetwork.com/    Catch OSP on ROKU weekly on National Stream Sports www.NEESP.info  Tuesday Nights from 7-8 pm  ===========================  Feel free to let us know if you have any comments or questions By emailing us at: OriginalSportsPodcast@gmail.com Voice intro: Steve Medley Music by Charlie Hodgson Join us every week to Experience the “O” on the Original Sports Podcast!!! @FunFootballPod @FootballKnow32 @SmokinJeremy @dailygrindpod @jennacheryl @QueenofHoop @rachmariesports @SteveB7SFG @scottGOLIONS @JuanPerezJr7 @ChiefsNana @DaSportChatter @TravisDHolmes @MikeBrodskyFL @TheSoTG @CD3Gator @cduvall30 @TribuneCity @john_nufc42 @always_chiefs @joshuaburs @rodpedersen @BillfromBoynton @phins93 @mikecalheta @NelliNel13 @Sportsteamnews @ChiefsChic87 @RButler723 @ShkBkMediaGrp @TomKorun @pblake1003 @Montejp231 @TheOffSeasonCFB @Blitz_Burgh @TheStandard412 @NflKramer @NYsportsGoat @madchadandeddie @BSenopole @profootballman1 @ClaudioReilsano @Topoffsports @SportsPodiumPodcast @TheMicDr @MarLovelace1 @100Sanford @coachmaradei @Letstalksports @TribuneSouth @BBALLBABE6 @NFLDraftEd @Key103Radio @1069THEEAGLE  @ShkBkMediaGrp @MunnseyTalks @JB_ThePROgram @ecwilson76 @LandersTalks @Mancinisports @GridironXtra @GridironGrubb @GridironZeroes @GridironGuru2 @OSPwithMM @thrillofsports @SmokeyHellNFL @jennachery @ShkBkMediaGrp @SteveB7SFG @CFBWeekly @ecwilson76 @LandersTalks @RadioJakeTaylor @tssjester @1tyoungy  @coachneub @MediaManning @ListenFrederick @ListenHubCity  @therealbigchops @PeakOneSports @bradwalker3083 @TBBucs5 @ShkBkMediaGrp @JB_ThePROgram @BrutallyHones @Montejp231 @GridironGuru2 @OSPwithMM @TheyCallMeMrYu @southfloridatribune @rodpedersen @CatsNBoltsPod @RodPedersenShow @JoshuaDoor954 @bradwalker3083  @High_Low_Sports  @SmokinJeremy @DaSportChatter @BillfromBoynton @phins93 @WindyCityDig @bradwalker3083 @JB_ThePROgram @FunFootballPod @rachmariesports @scottGOLIONS @MichiganMan_2 @DaSportChatter @LegitFBPods @TribuneCity @TheTouchdownNFL @always_chiefs   https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVZuudj681oIAbnscyHBa0g https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/original-sports-podcast-with-mark-maradei/id1504014103 https://open.spotify.com/show/3bMNxHBGw0V61LtpSuKh2u https://www.audible.com/pd/Steel-City-Nation-Podcast-Podcast/B08JJMND3F https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5idXp6c3Byb3V0LmNvbS85NDM0MjMucnNz https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-steel-city-nation-podcast-60538738/ https://www.twitch.tv/ospwithmarkmaradei/videos  https://linktr.ee/Originalsportspodcast  https://linktr.ee/ESENetwork https://linktr.ee/truthbetoldsports?utm_source=linktree_profile_share<sid=27aeb327-ebe2-4330-98a6-b7ee0188d490

Post-Gazette sports columnist Jason Mackey joins host Adam Bittner to react to the passing of legendary Penguins broadcaster Mike Lange late Wednesday night at the age of 76. What legacy does he leave the team, NHL and hockey community at large? What are some of Jason's best memories of getting to know Mike on a personal level over the years? What were some of his best moments on the mic? And why is he every bit a piece of franchise lore alongside on-ice heroes like Mario Lemieux, Jaromir Jagr, Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin? Our duo tackles those poignant questions, then dives into some hockey talk about the U.S. vs. Canada championship match of the Four Nations Face-off. Can Penguins coach Mike Sullivan and his American team recreate their defensive magic from the first matchup over the weekend. Will there be more booing and fisticuffs? And has this tournament reminded the right people that Crosby remains every bit the face of hockey and Team Canada that Connor McDavid is? Then later, Adam and Jason ponder Penn State's College Football Playoff chances next season following Jason's column on the topic. Are the returns of Drew Allar, Nick Singleton, Kaytron Allen and Dani Dennis-Sutton enough to make this program a dominant force? Or will it need transfer additions at wide receiver like Devonte Ross and Kyron Hudson to make an impact to take a step forward from a crushing loss to Notre Dame in the CFP semifinals at the Orange Bowl last month? In the third segment, airing on the PG's new Pirates-focused channel, the topic is payrolls disparity in MLB and the need for a salary cap to even things out. Are tight spenders like the Pirates' Bob Nutting or free spending teams like the Dodgers, Yankees and Mets the sport's biggest problem? How much should revenue sharing be part of the conversation around payroll? And how much would transparency in these matters help quell fans' angst? Adam and Jason try to answer those questions, then weigh in on some baseball topics, including the first base situation amid Spencer Horwitz's injury. Is Nick Yorke a good fit as a replacement? Why is it the right move to keep Bryan Reynolds in the outfield? And what impact can Tommy Pham have on the clubhouse culture, starting with his relationship with Oneil Cruz?
